Summary/Abstract: The combination of words in Arabic occur in a certain order. In this combination, which is called tarkīb, the relationships between the nouns are generally simple. However, there is a complex but also rich semantic relationship in the construct phrase. In the traditional syntax approach, where the issue is evaluated on the basis of i‘rāb, there are brief evaluations of the semantic relationship between nouns, but the emphasis is on the relations of ta‘rīf-tahsīs and āmil-ma‘mūl. Modern studies examining the relationship between the nouns of construct phrases are also very few at the desired level. This study aims to contribute to the scientific background in this field. In this context, first of all, the traditional point of view has been revealed by descriptive method. Then, examples of construct phrase in Arabic written culture were examined and determinations were made about the relations between the nouns of construction by induction method.
