| Abstract | ||
| The research gains its importance from: 1. The concepts of ambiguity and demystification are of fundamental importance in modern theories of linguistic description (Katz & Postal, 1964). The ability to detect ambiguity seems to be an important aspect of one's knowledge of language comprehension, so the study of the development of ambiguity is a study of the development of language proficiency. 2. A number of linguists began to study ambiguity in the hope of understanding the treatment and interpretation of sentences in general. Experiments on adults have found that lexical ambiguity reveals or completes its detection more quickly than the ambiguity of surface structures, which in turn takes less time than the ambiguity of deep structures (Mackay, 1966; McKay & Bever, 1967). If it can be assumed that the process of giving a preliminary interpretation of a sentence is similar to the process of giving a second interpretation of the ambiguous sentence, these data suggest that the lexical components are first addressed and followed by the superficial structure relationships and finally the deep structure relationships. It may seem interesting to see if the evolutionary chain of detecting ambiguity responds to the order of hidden responses in adults. One might expect this result to assume that latent responses indicate complexity of treatment and that more complex processors require more time to develop. 3. Ambiguity has an important role in estimating humor. It has been found that asymmetry in verbal jokes and puzzles is solved by the linguistic ambiguity of the four types of ambiguity, the lexicon and the ambiguity of the superficial and deep structures. Therefore, a proper understanding of the development of a child's ability to appreciate jokes and puzzles requires understanding the evolution of his ability to detect linguistic ambiguity (Shultz & Pilon, 1973: 728-729). 4. The studies of Arabic, particularly Iraq, in the development of the estimation of puzzles are very rare | ||
