As its name suggests, Arabic comes from the Arabian peninsula in the Middle East.
It is a language that belongs to the group of Semitic languages ​​(Hebrew and Aramaic are also part of this family).
There are 280 million Arabic speakers in the Arab-Muslim world, of course, but also beyond its borders.
This Arabic language arouses curiosity, given its particular phonology, phonetics and orthophony, as well as the many forms it can take.
If there is a literary, classical or liturgical Arabic (depending on the point of view from which we prefer to place ourselves), used above all by Egyptians and by all Muslims, there is in parallel a great variety of dialects and registers of the language.
We are going to focus here on literary and Qur’anic Arabic and leave the vernacular dialectal Arabic of Bedouin and sub-Saharan groups to other linguists.
