This project seeks to examine the current state of the discipline of discourse linguistics and the reality of its teaching at national and Arab universities. We explore the importance of discourse linguistics and establish an educational reference for its most important scientific subjects and concepts. This is for educational purposes, in addition to the severity of the acute crisis of conceptual and terminological confusion. Given the growing demand for imported consumer goods from the Western world, whether in the form of manufactured goods labeled with foreign names or in the form of concepts laden with various connotations and backgrounds, there is an urgent need to establish an Arabic discourse linguistics capable of meeting these challenges. This aims to, among other things, carefully comprehend the contents and purposes of the concepts generated, as well as the specificities of their origin and contexts of their use. This is intended to:
Empower student researchers to understand scientific terminology and its applications in the fields of discourse linguistics.
