Abstract
This study deals with the semantic investigation of Quranic items of psychological and physiological stimuli and how these items are rendered into English. It tries to make a distinction between these items that share a lot of semantic features and they are regarded as a major problem which encounters anyone who studies them because of their similarity and overlap. The importance of this study comes from the fact that it helps in comprehending Quranic items and realizing the unique style and discreteness of this sacred Text. It also studies psychological and physiological terms which very few psychological and Quranic studies deal with. So, it represents a basic ground for future studies. The goal of this research is to investigate these items in the Glorious Qur'an and try to make the nuances between them clear to the reader or listener. It also aims to analyze them on the basis of authentic linguistic interpretations as well as showing their English translations relying upon well-known Muslim translators. Moreover, it tries to investigate the degree of nearness in which the translators render these items to Arabic and whether they understand the nuances between them and appropriately give precise choices.
