Description:“On the Arabic Language, as now spoken in Turkey in Europe, in Asia, and in Africa,” is a letter written in 1819 by James Grey Jackson, a professor of Arabic and African languages.Jackson was a long-time resident of Morocco, residing in the coastal town of Mogador (Essaouira). He was the author of “An Account of the Empire of Marocco”.In this letter, Jackson argues that the Arabic language spoken in Africa, Asia, and Europe was the same. He rejects claims that different forms of Arabic spoken in different parts of the Arab world were so different that they were mutually unintelligible. The Arabic spoken in Morocco, Jackson asserts, was exactly the same as the Arabic spoken in Syria and Palestine, and that the Arabic spoken in Arabia, India, North Africa, and elsewhere, was also identical to Moroccan Arabic.Arabic belongs to the Semitic branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family. Its is related to other Semitic languages like Hebrew, Amharic, Tigrinya, Maltese, and the ancient Aramaic, Syriac, and Phoenician languages.The use of the Arabic language spread with the Islamic conquests. In parts of the Islamic Empire, like Iran, the pre-Islamic language remained in use. But in other areas, Arabic replaced older languages (such as Aramaic in the Middle East, the ancient Egyptian language in Egypt, and Berber languages in North Africa).Today many different varieties of Arabic are spoken across North Africa and the Middle East, some of which may not be mutually intelligible.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
