المستخلص

تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى تتبع الضوابط الصوتية فى اللغة العربية من خلال بعض أحکام التجويد (الٳدغام- الٳظهار-الٳخفاء)، کما تتضمن إيجاد ترتيب لتلک الضوابط طبقا لمدى أهمية تطبيقها فى اللغة العربية فى ٳطار نظرية التفاضلية الصوتية. وتسعى الدراسة للإجابة عن الأسئلة الأتية :
1-    ما هى الضوابط الصوتية فى لغة القران الکريم؟
2-    ما هو ترتيب هذه الضوابط حسب أولويتها فى لغة القران الکريم؟
وقد اعتمد البحث على تفحص بعض أحکام التجويد و الضوابط الصوتية فى اللغة العربية  بالإضافة إلى إستخدام نظرية التفاضلية الصوتية (Optimality Theory in Phonology) کآداه  توظف من أجل تحليل وترتيب تسلسل تلک  الضوابط.

6- Recommendation for further research
 
 
More researches should be devoted to creating a comprehensive constraint hierarchy for the LHQ. This could be accomplished by examining more constraints, for instance, constraints which regard to syllable structure. Moreover, OT is generally under-studied in Arabic countries; hence, various studies should be dedicated to applying this theory to different fields of study.  For example, OT has been proposed in the fields of semantics and pragmatics, but has been rarely examined in Arabic studies.
