Notes	In her study, Maria Rauscher addresses the still unresolved question of the (vocalization-related) variety of forms of three-radical verbal nouns (Maṣādir), s. kurh, karh, karāha, karāhiya (disgust, loathing). Based on the Arabic Linguistic Tradition (ALT), which divides the Maṣādir into the orally transmitted (samāʻī) and the analogically formed (qiyāsī), the possible principles behind the selection of a specific vowel melody are identified. Data analysis of the four patterns fiʻl, fuʻl, faʻāl and fiʻāl, enriched with concrete case studies, reveals (semi-)transparent derivation relationships between tokens with identical/dissimilating vowel shapes. While the traditional imperative of a lexicalized--therefore arbitrarily vocalized--basis (ʼaṣl) assigns the vowel in the word formation (ṣarf) primarily a sound function (sawṭ), concentrating on the vowel component of the root of the word promotes new morpho-etymological insights and reveals a multifaceted interplay of grammatical-semantic profiling, association-controlling effect and dialectal variation.
