peace all,
Update
We are looking for volunteers to help make Project Root List even better. Please personal message me if interested. All you need is time and be able to identify Arabic letters. If you already use Project Root List you should find this easy.
Goal to add a link to an entry in Verbal Idioms of Quran (by Mustansir Mir) for each root entry in Project Root Lst. This will allow users to read up on any verbal idioms associated with the root.
For those who do not know, idioms are a group of words that together have a meaning other than those of the individual words (e.g. "over the moon", "see the light", "add fuel to the fire", "fall in love" ). Languages such as English, Arabic and probably all others have idioms, and many are used in Quran. This will allow students to study it in more detail.
Currently Project Root List provides for every root word in Quran
Classical Arabic meanings
list of every word occurrence in Quran, broken down with grammar information for each
Link to Lane's Lexicon root entry
A link to corpus.quran.com to allow further examination of occurrences and grammar information -
peace all,

Salam,
I am a user of PRL and i think it is very good, my only issue being the search-ability of the text file, which i find sometimes is inconsistent in naming letters and not easily searchable. I have a few other suggestions i would like to discuss. If there is any way i can help then I will God willing.
-
speaking from experience with the text file, which i use because most of the time im offline, it is quite hard to search, because of the inconsistencies in Naming/transliterating the Arabic letters. i have partially remedied this in the text file i use by renaming the radicals using a simple search and replace, to an easier transliteration, which i hope does not breach any kind copyright, as its only for my own personal use. Also that some entries are written as for example t-a/w-r. Which is very hard to search for, it would be better to be written as t-a-r / t-w-r for the sake of search ability. In the text file i use i have used the following to transliterate, mainly because I easily get confused with letters like Dhal, Thal, Za, Zay. and for the sake of searchability

Salaam Wakas,
I just wanted to say thank you for this amazing project. I use the PRL site extensively while reading the Quran and no doubt it clarifies a lot of things and gives me a better insight into the verses. I can purchase/rent the book 'A Concordance of the Qur'an' and help you guys out if you need another hand.
I also emailed the admin on PRL website but have not gotten a response yet. -

I understand these kind of projects take time and the people capable of getting them completed, but I see on the website that PRL is listed as incomplete at 93%, as it has for some time now. Is there any estimated time for when users can hope for the project to be completed?
-
It is pretty much finished but the last part was going to be adding even more grammar detail for each word occurrence by incorporating the updated grammatical info from corpus.quran.com into PRL but Corpus has not been updated in a long time and may never be.
Even if it was updated I probably wouldn't have the time to oversee its incorporation but by linking to corpus this would have reduced the issue somewhat.
Look under the first few root entries under Saad to get an idea of what we were aiming for.
The next step could be to produce an app for iOS/Apple devices which would be handy but I really dislike Apple's long and costly bureaucratic process for app creation so cant be bothered dealing with it, but of course others are welcome to create one as long as its not for profit. Could put out a call for funds and just award this job to an app creation company to do for us. What do people think?
Does anyone know of an existing iOS app that is a Quran concordance/dictionary/grammar in one?
