Short Vowel Changes and Their Effect on Lexical Connotation A study on ‘adab al-kātib’ (“Writers’ Guide”) by Ibn Qutaybah al-Dīnawarī (died 276 A.H) As-Sayed Abdul Halim Mustafa Abdel Aal Al-Shorjbi Department of the science of Language. Al-Azhar Girls College, Thebes. Luxor, Al-Azhar University. Email: alsayed71@azhar.edu.eg Abstract: Ancient and modern scholars agree that short vowels perform important grammatical and morphological functions. These functions lead to different connotations due to short vowel changes in the morphological or grammatical form. Do these short vowels lead to lexical meaning? This is the point over which linguists disagree. They have not stated explicitly that short vowels are able to perform lexical functions. Although linguists have not dealt with this point from the theoretical perspective, many of them have listed lexical items which have the same consonants but with different meanings. The reason behind the difference of meaning is that they have different short vowels. The present study aims at clarifying the role of short vowels in lexical formation as well as the grammatical and morphological functions of short vowels. This is done through the book entitled ‘adab al-kātib’ (“Writers’ Guide”) by Ibn Qutaybah. The book aims at correcting the language of writers and regulating their writings and style.The present study adopts a descriptive analytical approach to show the role short vowels play in lexical formation and their effect on changing meaning. Terms and examples are drawn from the book entitled ‘adab al-kātib’ (“Writers’ Guide”) by Ibn Qutaybah.Most important conclusions of the study include the following: First: Ibn Qutaybah investigates the lexical items in which short vowels play a role in changing their meaning in two chapters in his book. In the first chapter, Ibn Qutaybah lists 80 lexical items in the first chapter and 28 in the second chapter along with their similar forms which have the same consonants but have different meanings due to the different short vowels. Second: Ibn Qutaybah have not dealt with this topic exclusively; rather, language books and different lexicons have examined these lexical items along with their different meanings despite of having the same consonants. Keywords: short vowel changes, lexical connotation , ‘adab al-kātib’ (“Writers’ Guide”), lexical meaning, consonants and vowels.

Survey on Awareness of Rubella Vaccine among College Girls

Background: The Rubella virus is classified under the Arbovirus. It commonly affects children of age less than 10 years. In an adult, it mostly remains as a latent infection. Its persistence in an adult is more significant in a woman's life especially after adolescence, in the childbearing age. It is a factor commonly associated with infertility in a woman and congenital malformation. Latent infections in women will also lead to abortion. It is recommended by WHO that all women at childbearing age should be given a booster dose before the age of 18. In a country like India, rubella infection in women leads to social and mental issues. Thus the awareness among the girls at the age of 18 is imperative.
 Methods: This survey was conducted among the 100 undergraduate students and postgraduate students at saveetha dental college from December, 2019 to January,2020. They were given a questionnaire to know about the rubella viral infection and the issues related to infertility. The results were collected and then analyzed through SPSS software. Descriptive statistical analysis was carried out and the chi-square test was used and the p-value was calculated.
 Results: The survey reveals that many girls are aware of the rubella vaccine but not its benefits in preventing rubella virus infection and its complications. Among them 50% girls have knowledge about the significance of rubella infection in young adults, 22% among them are aware of female infertility is also related to poor rubella immunity, 42% are aware of congenital malformation are common in rubella, 30% girls answered that rubella vaccine at our teenage will prevent infertility issues.
