Abstract

This study aims to disambiguate words in which their different pronunciations change their meanings in the Glorious Quran . It hypothesizes that this phenomenon has a relationship between letters and diacritics, i.e., some modifications in their pronunciations alter their meanings. It also hypothesizes that this process exists in nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs in all parts of speech in different positions . The model adopted is Makram's (1996:20) for the data analysis. Qualitative approach was conducted to analyze the data in a perfect way . The results show that diacritics have a big role in specifying the meaning of words and any change in pronunciation will change the meaning of words. Also it concludes that heteronyms exist in nouns, verbs and seldom in adjective but there is no heteronyms found in adverbs
