I told you already that the poem I posted the other day is better than any surah of the Quran.

I know what you said. I do not remember if I responded but I must say that you do not know what you are talking about.

I think you should first learn Finish in all its subtleties, to really comprehend nuances, depth and alternative meanings of the words of this magnificent language.

At present, I have no interest in Finnish. Although, I am sure it is a good language. However, the the subject of our discussion is Arabic. Quranic Arabic, to be precise.

Here you go. I've only provided one example of each, but in most cases there are several examples to choose from. There are also numerous rhetorical devices not mentioned by Tzortrzis. I'm not sure if this was supposed to be a complete list or merely illustrative. In any case, they are easy enough to find.

You have forgotten to quote full references for all your quotes. Can you kindly do that.

No, look at the title of the thread first before writing such nonsense.

I'm not sure what references you're looking for.  The quotes are obviously from the "surah" itself, which is contained in the opening post, along with a link to the source.

The Noble Quran is in Arabic and its Surahs are also in Arabic.

And the subject "a Surah the like thereof" is also in Arabic. So, think before you speak. Always.

I want the reference from the Quran for the verse you have quoted while defining the alleged various criteria of Quranic imitability.

Aside from a passing mention of Quran 24:35 under "Conceptual relatedness", I don't think I quoted from the Quran.  The alleged criteria were yours, which you copied from Tzortis.

C'mon, Mr. Saint.  You're stalling.  Airmano says I won the contest!  When do I get my prize?
