This research focuses on ethnolinguistics, the intersection of culture and language. It presents an ethnography of Maronite Christian funerals in the Arabic-speaking village of Jish, Israel. It also examines, from a linguistic perspective, certain concepts and cultural norms associated with these funerals and explicates them using the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) framework. At the micro-level, this study offers an accurate depiction and analysis of funeral practices within a single community that shares the same linguaculture. This precise depiction and analysis, in turn, facilitates comparison between these funeral practices and those of other micro-communities. Furthermore, this research provides cultural outsiders with insights into certain aspects of the Jish linguaculture.
