  • Classical and Modern Standard Arabic Marijn Van Putten University of Leiden
    Chapter 3 Classical and Modern Standard Arabic Marijn van Putten University of Leiden The highly archaic Classical Arabic language and its modern iteration Modern Standard Arabic must to a large extent be seen as highly artificial archaizing reg- isters that are the High variety of a diglossic situation. The contact phenomena found in Classical Arabic and Modern Standard Arabic are therefore often the re- sult of imposition. Cases of borrowing are significantly rarer, and mainly found in the lexical sphere of the language. 1 Current state and historical development Classical Arabic (CA) is the highly archaic variety of Arabic that, after its cod- ification by the Arab Grammarians around the beginning of the ninth century, becomes the most dominant written register of Arabic. While forms of Middle Arabic, a style somewhat intermediate between CA and spoken dialects, gain some traction in the Middle Ages, CA remains the most important written regis- ter for official, religious and scientific purposes. From the moment of CA’s rise to dominance as a written language, the whole of the Arabic-speaking world can be thought of as having transitioned into a state of diglossia (Ferguson 1959; 1996), where CA takes up the High register and the spoken dialects the Low register.1 Representation in writing of these spoken dia- lects is (almost) completely absent in the written record for much of the Middle Ages. Eventually, CA came to be largely replaced for administrative purposes by Ottoman Turkish, and at the beginning of the nineteenth century, it was function- ally limited to religious domains (Glaß 2011: 836).

  • Arabic Kinship Terms Revisited: the Rural and Urban Context of North-Western Morocco
    Sociolinguistic ISSN: 1750-8649 (print) Studies ISSN: 1750-8657 (online) Article Arabic kinship terms revisited: The rural and urban context of North-Western Morocco Amina Naciri-Azzouz Abstract This article reports on a study that focuses on the different kinship terms collected in several places in north-western Morocco, using elicitation and interviews conducted between March 2014 and June 2015 with several dozens of informants aged between 8 and 80. The analysed data include terms from the urban contexts of the city of Tetouan, but most of them were gathered in rural locations: the small village of Bni Ḥlu (Fahs-Anjra province) and different places throughout the coastal and inland regions of Ghomara (Chefchaouen province). The corpus consists of terms of address, terms of reference and some hypocoristic and affective terms.

Migratory movements from the east to the west, from rural areas to urban centres, as well as to Europe, has resulted in a shifting rural and urban population in this region. Furthermore, issues such as the increasing rate of urbanization and the drop in mortality have altered the social and spatial structure of cities such as Tetouan and Tangiers, where up to the present time some districts are known by the name of the origin of the population who settled down there: e.g.

  • General Introduction
    General Introduction 1. Background of the Study As human beings, we always tend to express our thoughts, ideas and emotions through languages. It is commonly agreed that the use of two or more languages in the same conversation occurs in bilingual or multilingual communities. The term that is used to describe such language contact is referred to as code –switching. Code switching is a familiar linguistic phenomenon used in countries where bilingual or multilingual speakers communicate with more than just one language or variety in everyday interactions. In fact, code switching becomes a common practice among all bilingual and multilingual societies all over the world in that in each country we may find at least two languages or varieties of language spoken. The phenomenon of code switching has been a subject of many writers, linguists and researchers such as Myers –Scotton (1991); Poplack (1980); Milroy and Muysken (1995) and so many others. Various studies have been made to investigate and scrutinize the occurrence, the reasons and the functions ,the different types of code switching and various theories have been put forth about what code switching really is and what motivates bilingual or multilingual speakers to code switch. Algeria, like any other Arab country is characterized by the existence of different sociolinguistics phenomena because of the distinct languages and the various varieties that are spoken and used by Algerians and the contact between them. In fact, code switching is one of the features that is well observed and highly used among Algerians compared to other Arab speakers to the point that if strangers visit Algeria and observe what an Algerian repertoire could consist of, they would be very surprised of the richness and the linguistic diversity in this country.

    Prof. Scott B. Noegel Chair, Dept. of Near Eastern Languages and Civilization University of Washington Book review: Izre'el, Shlomo and Rina Drory Israel, eds. Israel Oriental Studies XlI': Language and Culture in the Near East. Leiden: E.). Brill, 1995. First Published in: Anthropological Linguistics 39/1 (1997), 175-180. 1997 BOOK REVIEWS 175 some other Arabian dialects. in Central Asian Arabic. and in some Saharan dialects ' ' .. ." (p. 50)? For those nonspecialists simply interested in Najdi Arabic, this information is irrelevant, or if this feature is relevant for them, then many other peculiarities of the dialect should have been similarly pointed out on this comparative basis; meanwhile, the specialist will note the descriptive fact and use it for his or her own purposes and prob- ably does not need the special prompting. This is true for Classical Arabic because references to Classical Arabic implicitly presuppose a diachronic model that needs to be justified on its own merits. For example, Ingham (p. 13) points out that in contrast to Classical Arabic, the glottal stop has dis- appeared in Najdi Arabic. It may be asked, however, whether this formulation correctly recapitulates the diachronic development. Apart trom a few attestations in Yemen, there are no dialects anywhere that have a glottal stop etymological with the glottal stop of Classical Arabic. This fact alone suggests that at the time of the Arabic diaspora (ca. 650 A.D.) there already existed glottal-stop-Iess dialects spread in all directions from the Arabian peninsula. Furthermore, it is well attested, both in the works of the earliest Arabic grammarians and in early Arabic orthography (including Koranic orthography), that there were early varieties of Arabic that did not have the glottal stop.
