In the few traditional Arabic grammatical sources that address the term parentheticals it is usually defined as the insertion of a clause between two other clauses, or between two syntactic components, for taʼkīd “emphasis.” In this article I examine Qurʼānic parenthetical clauses in the theoretical framework of relevance theory. It transpires that the parenthetical clause is placed where it achieves optimal relevance and therfore the conveyed utterance does not require the addresses to waste any efforts trying to procees the information and correctly interpret it. Optimal relevance also means having a contextual effect. The Qur’ānic parenthetical clauses have one of the following contextual effects: They serve to affirm God’s omnipotence, indicating that only God produces suras, created heaven and earth. He is the forgiver and all depends on His will; to explain what it meant by a specific statement or to explain the reason behind a certain action; to qualify, to highlight a specific characterization, for example, one of the parenthetical clauses modify the Qur’ān as the truth from God; to provide background information, which could explain further developments in the narrative.

This paper analyses the influence of suburbanization on the electoral behaviour of residents based on the election data of the Lithuanian Parliament (2000 – 2012), and the President and the municipality. The research area is Vilnius suburban zone which is dominated by the Polish identity residents. The intensifying suburbanization may lead to ethnicity conflict between local residents (the Polish) and new suburbans who are mainly Lithuanians. The election data in Vilnius suburban zone were analysed in the context of neighbourhood effect and spatial context theories. According to the two theories, there are two types of voters, namely the newcomers - who prefer political centre – right and the long – term residents, who are mainly Polish voters for political centre – left. The distribution trend of different voters are closely related to the population changes in Vilnius suburban zone. References 20. Figs 5. Table 1. In Lithuanian, summary in English.
