| Abstract | ||
| Modern linguistics has addressed lexical relations. In Quranic studies these relations have been covered, but scholars focused on Siamese twins (absolute antonyms), words with opposite meanings that are closely related to each other and which define each other contenxtually. They also serve to invest the text with unity and eliminate ambiguity. One result of this relation is that the pair is their absolute nature: something should either be one of them and cannot be neither: time is either day or night and place is either earth or the sky. This relation is distinct from other kinds of relations, like repetition and referencing, for in these twins the words are very closely related to each other. | ||
