Abstract

This study is grounded in the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) for Languages updated from its previous 2001 edition. This research aims to explore how sociolinguistic competence and appropriateness are reflected in communicative language and signing competences and to contextualize these aspects within the Arabic language. This study employs a descriptive analysis of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment - Companion Volume (Europe, 2020). The updated scales in the 2020 edition provide a more robust foundation for developing a comprehensive and responsive competence framework that addresses the contemporary dynamics of society, culture, and technology. This inclusive approach allows for a broader understanding of linguistic competence among diverse learners, including deaf community. The results of this study indicate that the updates introduced a more inclusive and practical approach, that can be applied to the context of learning and assessing Arabic language proficiency, particularly in speaking skill.
