Abstract

This study analyzes the development and trends of Arabic vocabulary applications from 1987 to 2024 using bibliometric techniques.It examines 37 years of literature to address gaps in understanding their evolution and impact. Data were cited from databases such as SCOPUS as well as Web of Science, focusing on conference proceedings, articles, and reviews published within the defined timeframe. Various bibliometric indicators, VosViewer version 1.16.20 tools to analyze publication trends, citation counts, co-authorship networks, and thematic analysis were utilized to analyze the research landscape comprehensively. Findings highlight increasing publications, themes like gamification, and the shift to AI-powered tools, emphasizing future research directions.
