| Abstract | ||
| One of the most effective techniques that is used in arranging our text or message is the grammatical prominence or emphasis. Such a technique is used in all languages for different purposes. Thus each language has its own devices for the sake of achieving the effective distribution of information in a certain text. Hence, in constructing any text or message, there is a need to arrange our information according to the most important elements or parts in order to held the addressee recognize unambiguously the piece of information that can be seen as the most important of any message. Therefore, the emphasis or prominence may be given to each part of a text or a message that one prefers to make it prominent. Hence, there are certain devices that can be used to achieve such a goal. In this study, the emphasis will be given on one important part of the message: the verb or the verb phrase in both English and Arabic. | ||
