Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

3. Introduction :
English and Arabic belong to two different and
distant language families: Western Germanic,
and Semitic. Consequently, their grammars are
sharply different. So there are major differences
in the syntax of those two languages. This huge
difference is caused by more than one factor
like the order or the types of sentences for
instance. In this analysis we intend to elaborate
and clarify this topic further more.
4. English And Arabic Basic Sentence
Structure:
There are two major types of sentences, nominal
and verbal. One of the main differences
between Arabic and English grammar is that
English has verbal sentences only, whereas
Arabic has both nominal and verbal
sentences.
5. A nominal sentence requires no verb of any
kind. In general, it consists of two nouns , the
first is called 'Topic/Subject' (المبدأ/إليه المسند) ,
and the second is called 'Comment/Predicate'
(الخبر/المسند) . Although English sentences start
with a noun, this noun is called
'subject' (الفاعل/إليه المسند) , followed by the
main verb (الفعل) of the sentence and an object
or a complement ( S + V + O/C ). The English
sentence cannot be described as grammatically
correct unless it contains a main verb
(P.Ghazala,1995). On the other hand, unlike
English, Arabic has different types of sentences.
6. English:
To understand sentence structures in the
English language, you must first have a
general understanding of the types of words
that are used to make sentences. Any English
sentence consists of three basic components
or parts. The basic structure of the English
sentence is
( S + V + O/C ).
7. S= Subject: the person or the thing that does
something.
She likes cats. ( "She" is the subject, and it is a
pronoun)
V= Verb: a word that expresses an action,
occurrence, or a state of being.
( "likes" is the verb )
O= Object: the person or the thing that
receives the action of the verb.
( "cats" is the object )
8. Arabic:
On the other hand Arabic has different types of
sentences and therefore , different structures
. there are four types of Arabic sentences
and they are :
Verbal Sentences (الفعلية الجملة)
Nominal Sentences (االسمية الجملة)
Functional Sentences (اإلعراب من محل لها التي الجمل)
Non-Functional Sentences (محل لها ليس التي الجمل
اإلعراب من)
9. Of course we are mainly concerned with the
first two types which are the main ones.
- The structure of the Arabic verbal sentence is ( V
+ S + O/C ) . So the order as you can obviously
see is different but the components are mainly
the same of the English. There are variations on
verbal sentence types in Arabic like the 'kaana
sentence' , the conditional sentence , the
imperative sentence ..etc.
10. - The structure of the nominal sentence is
(Topic + Comment), no verbs at all . Also
there are variations on nominal sentence
types in Arabic like the 'Inna sentence' , the
prepositional sentence, the adverbial
sentence, and the fronted comment and
belated topic sentence.
11. The verb in verbal sentences usually precedes
the subject but when it follows the subject,
the sentence turns into a nominal one. The
difference between a verbal and nominal
sentence is that the former relates an act or
event, whereas the latter gives a description
of a person or thing.
12. -Examples :
ArabicEnglish
The same English sentence can be
translated into Arabic in two different
ways :
As a Nominal sentence :
كرة يلعب أحمدالقدم.
It can be translated this way and be
grammatically correct. ''أحمد here is
a topic not a subject.
As a Verbal sentence :
القدم كرة أحمد يلعب
We changed the order of the verb
and the subject making the structure
:
V + S + O
Ahmed plays soccer .
Although this sentence starts with a
noun, this noun this noun is the
subject of the verb that comes after
and that does not make the
sentence Nominal. English as we
said has only verbal sentences so
this sentence is verbal.
The structure :
S + V + O
And it’s the same in all
grammatically correct English
sentences.
13. One of the most common mistakes that
students make, is to translate the sentences
between the two languages in the same
order. Although it's a simple rule that each of
them has its own structure and order , but
students still make this mistake more often.
14. Example :
EnglishArabic
Some students translate the
previous Arabic sentence this way :
Studies Hend History.
This is a huge mistake because it is
completely wrong to duplicate the
Arabic sentence structure. We do
not translate words only. We have to
pay attention to the set of rules or
grammar , the order , of each
language. So the correct translation
is :
Hind studies History.
S + V + O
التاريخ هند تدرس
V + S + O
15. Conclusion :
To conclude, since English and Arabic are two different
languages from different origins and families, they both
have their own grammar, vocabulary, style, and
phonology. In this paper, we discussed the basic
grammatical structure of the sentence in the two
languages in details and differentiated between them.
So you have to be able to distinguish them and never
mix their characteristics as two amazing, different, rich
languages.
