Abstract

This research compares the linguistic methods that are used in the Kurdish, English and Arabic  languages, to name the machines , devices and tools .  It is noted that these languages depend on two methods, the first one is the derivation method  (by adding the morphological suffixes), and the second method is the synthase method (by  compounding several words to each other) to name the names of the tools.  Finally, the study suggests several linguistic methods to regulate language development to  create the tool names.  Results:  The Arabic language uses the prefixes and interfixes, whereas the Kurdish language uses the  suffixes, and the English does not have organized rules for tool names .  These linguistic methods should use organized rules for naming the tools to avoid turmoil,  improvisation and multilingualism, by allocating each morpheme in a specific field. For example,  the morphemes of tool names could be classified according to their shapes, sizes, functions,  mechanical properties, physical movements, or powerful, and so on. This classification could be  done according to the properties, capabilities, and energies of each language.
