Abstract

The growth of the Arabic dictionary in Indonesia begins with the emergence of a morphological system dictionary that refers to Arabic grammar, specifically morphology. This system is appropriate for learning Arabic in traditional pesantren, which uses grammar and translation methods. However, in the mid-90s, the dictionary system transformed with the advent of the Arabic dictionary with an alphabetical arrangement. This new system is considered more comfortable and more practical for learning Arabic, especially for students at the beginner level. This research proves that the alphabetic dictionary system is superior and gets a positive response from dictionary users in Indonesia. Therefore, the alphabetical dictionary system continues to emerge because it is needed, its composition is faster, and its use is easier and more practical for students at the elementary level. For students at the secondary level or students who are studying Arabic grammar, the morphological system dictionary is considered more appropriate because it functions as a medium to practice understanding changes in word forms and morphological rules.
