Contributions to Arabic Language Studies

His observance of the omission of some Arabic terms used by poets and authors of antiquity in the traditional Arabic language dictionaries, led him to embark on authoring his own dictionary in 1883. He changed its title from "The Tail to Lisan Al-Arab" to "Al-Musa'id" ("The Helper"). In 1911 he founded "Lughat Al-'Arab" (Arab Language) a philology journal.^[1]

He helped develop the Library’s collection, donating printed materials from his private collection, when other collections in foreign languages remained in the monastery library. The Peace Library was later renamed the Baghdad Public Library, and in 1961 became the basis for the establishment of the Iraq National Library.
