| Summary: | This study consists of three parts comprising twelve chapters. Part One I Tense and Aspect in Colloquial Egyptian Arabic t consists of five chapters 1-5. In chapter one 'Previous Treatments', we tried to show where we differ from previous treatments dealing with the same subject. Starting with chapter two is our treatment of the subject. In the three chapters two to five, we deal with Tense and Aspect. This treatment has resulted in a different and more elaborate system of verbal patterns from the previous treatments and shown now semantic references for many old ones. This approach has entailed the setting up of three major verb classes. In chapter five 'Categories of the Conditional Sentence', the polysystemic approach in dealing with the categories of the conditional sentence independently of the normal sentence results in some simplification of earlier treatments |
