    Juxtaposition of words is a linguistic phenomenon that exists in all languages and is not specific to a language and means common relationship of one word with other certain words in a language. Juxtaposition of words is one of the most important issues of semantics because of its important role in determining meaning of many words and combinations. This verbal phenomenon is one of distinguishing indices of text structure and a key for its reading, analysis, and interpretation. Juxtaposition of words indicates that in addition to literal meaning of words we need to investigate status of a word in a composition and its relation with other words to understand intended meaning of the text. Analysis and classification of juxtaposition of words offer a clear picture of stylistic coordination of a poet and his intellectual system and help critics to criticize his poetry properly. The present paper studies juxtaposition of words semantically in poems of Labid through descriptive - analytic method and tries to answer these two fundamental questions: what types of juxtaposition of words have been used in poems of Labid? What is the role of juxtaposition of words in understanding the meaning? In this article, it will be observed that the poet utilized two types of nominal and verbal juxtaposition in his poem. Also it will be found that study of this verbal phenomenon has a significant role in understanding the meaning. Manuscript profile
