Summary/Abstract: First section of this paper assesses the importance of tadmin, “implication of meaning,” in medieval Arabic literature, and also reflects on its significance for the language today. What is particularly interesting about the term is that once its usage became fully established it was employed not only by some of the grammarians but also a number of scholars of rhetoric and legal theory. A further important aspect of tadmin addressed by this essay is its relationship to other syntactic and rhetorical devices. In the second section, the author handled issue of tadmīn how it transformed from a prosodic defect to a poetic device in an earlier article. But when he looked at this subject with only perspective, he felt the need to write a new article dealing with reasonable causes of this development and detailed kinds of tadmīn. In this article, he examined tadmīn in detail by separating into three as “grammatical tadmīn”, “rhetorical tadmīn” and “hermeneutic tadmīn”.
