 * Arabic Queary Class
 *
 * PHP class build WHERE condition for SQL statement using MySQL REGEXP and 
 * Arabic lexical  rules.
 *    
 * With the exception of the Qur'an and pedagogical texts, Arabic is generally 
 * written without vowels or other graphic symbols that indicate how a word is 
 * pronounced. The reader is expected to fill these in from context. Some of the 
 * graphic symbols include sukuun, which is placed over a consonant to indicate that 
 * it is not followed by a vowel; shadda, written over a consonant to indicate it is 
 * doubled; and hamza, the sign of the glottal stop, which can be written above or 
 * below (alif) at the beginning of a word, or on (alif), (waaw), (yaa'), 
 * or by itself on the line elsewhere. Also, common spelling differences regularly 
 * appear, including the use of (haa') for (taa' marbuuta) and (alif maqsuura) 
 * for (yaa'). These features of written Arabic, which are also seen in Hebrew as 
 * well as other languages written with Arabic script (such as Farsi, Pashto, and 
 * Urdu), make analyzing and searching texts quite challenging. In addition, Arabic 
 * morphology and grammar are quite rich and present some unique issues for 
 * information retrieval applications.
 * 
 * There are essentially three ways to search an Arabic text with Arabic queries: 
 * literal, stem-based or root-based.
 * 
 * A literal search, the simplest search and retrieval method, matches documents 
 * based on the search terms exactly as the user entered them. The advantage of this 
 * technique is that the documents returned will without a doubt contain the exact 
 * term for which the user is looking. But this advantage is also the biggest 
 * disadvantage: many, if not most, of the documents containing the terms in 
 * different forms will be missed. Given the many ambiguities of written Arabic, the 
 * success rate of this method is quite low. For example, if the user searches 
 * for (kitaab, book), he or she will not find documents that only 
 * contain (`al-kitaabu, the book).
 * 
 * Stem-based searching, a more complicated method, requires some normalization of 
 * the original texts and the queries. This is done by removing the vowel signs, 
 * unifying the hamza forms and removing or standardizing the other signs. 
 * Additionally, grammatical affixes and other constructions which attach directly 
 * to words, such as conjunctions, prepositions, and the definite article, should be 
 * identified and removed. Finally, regular and irregular plural forms need to be 
 * identified and reduced to their singular forms. Performing this type of stemming 
 * leads to more successful searches, but can be problematic due to over-generation 
 * or incorrect generation of stems.
 * 
 * A third method for searching Arabic texts is to index and search for the root 
 * forms of each word. Since most verbs and nouns in Arabic are derived from 
 * triliteral (or, rarely, quadriliteral) roots, identifying the underlying root of 
 * each word theoretically retrieves most of the documents containing a given search 
 * term regardless of form. However, there are some significant challenges with this 
 * approach. Determining the root for a given word is extremely difficult, since it 
 * requires a detailed morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis of the text to 
 * fully disambiguate the root forms. The issue is complicated further by the fact 
 * that not all words are derived from roots. For example, loan words (words 
 * borrowed from another language) are not based on root forms, although there are 
 * even exceptions to this rule. For example, some loans that have a structure 
 * similar to triliteral roots, such as the English word film, are handled 
 * grammatically as if they were root-based, adding to the complexity of this type 
 * of search. Finally, the root can serve as the foundation for a wide variety of 
 * words with related meanings. The root (k-t-b) is used for many words related 
 * to writing, including (kataba, to write), (kitaab, book), (maktab, 
 * office), and (kaatib, author). But the same root is also used for regiment/
 * battalion, (katiiba). As a result, searching based on root forms results in 
 * very high recall, but precision is usually quite low.
 * 
 * While search and retrieval of Arabic text will never be an easy task, relying on 
 * linguistic analysis tools and methods can help make the process more successful. 
 * Ultimately, the search method you choose should depend on how critical it is to 
 * retrieve every conceivable instance of a word or phrase and the resources you 
 * have to process search returns in order to determine their true relevance.
