Arabic zoology and veterinary dictionaries between authenticity and modernity

Abstract

This article deals with an analytical and descriptive study of both zoological
and veterinary dictionaries from Arab heritage and contemporaries, where I began
this study by dictionaries of the Arab heritage in the field of animal and veterinary
sciences, citing The well known works, which reflect the human interest of the
Arab man at the time in all that is connected with the animal world; Both from a
linguistic and medical point of view.
I also studied the veterinary dictionaries of the Arabic Renaissance, where
the pioneers of this renaissance tried to translate the various occidental scientific
works into Arabic, and they faced the problem of translating Foreign terms in
Arabic; Hence their use of bilingual dictionaries in the field.
And finally, modern Arab veterinary dictionaries, especially unified
dictionaries, to know whether they are able to meet the needs related to the
language of communication, for contemporary users such as students, and all
those who work in this field: veterinarians And breeders, as well as users in
general of this kind of dictionaries, and I concluded this study by the prospects
of modernization and development of these dictionaries according to the needs
of the user.
