Students of Arabic language and applied linguistics may use specific parts of this study as a reference to gain a better understanding of Arabic language syntax and morphology. In addition this study is a useful tool that presents a thorough description of language development (Arabic L2), and helps teachers and researchers to develop effective teaching materials and syllabus.
