Book excerpt: Diglossia has been defined as 'A relatively stable language situation in which, in addition to the primary dialects of the language (which may include a standard or regional standards), there is a very divergent, highly codified (often grammatically more complex) superposed variety, the vehicle of a large and respected body of written literature, either of an earlier period or in another speech community, which is learned largely by formal education and is used for most written and formal spoken purposes but is not used by any sector of the community for ordinary conversation.'In the light of this general definition, the problem of Arabic diglossia can best be illustrated by outlining salient functional and structural characteristics of the varieties of Arabic existing side by side in the Arab world.

Book Synopsis Diglossia and Language Contact by : Lotfi Sayahi
Download or read book Diglossia and Language Contact written by Lotfi Sayahi and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a detailed analysis of language contact in North Africa and explores the historical presence of the languages used in the region, including the different varieties of Arabic and Berber as well as European languages. Using a wide range of data sets, it provides a comprehensive analysis of the mechanisms of language contact under classical diglossia and societal bilingualism, examining multiple cases of oral and written code-switching. It also describes contact-induced lexical and structural change in such situations and discusses the possible appearance of new varieties within the context of diglossia. Examples from past diglossic situations are examined, including the situation in Muslim Spain and the Maltese Islands. An analysis of the current situation of Arabic vernaculars, not only in the Maghreb but also in other Arabic-speaking areas, is also presented. This book will appeal to anyone interested in language contact, the Arabic language, and North Africa.

Book Synopsis Effects of Arabic Diglossia on Pupils' Linguistic Performance in an Algerian Context by : Chahrazed Hamzaoui

This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2021 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Arabistic, grade: "manque", , course: Anglais, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of Arabic diglossia on formal instruction with special reference to the primary level in Tlemcen schools. It seeks to highlight the sociolinguistic phenomenon ‘diglossia’ and its effect on pupils’ linguistic performance. Recently, clear flaws seem to have been noted in pupils’ linguistic skills in all Arab schools, particularly in first grade level, since most of them have relatively little or no contact with the official language of instruction before formal schooling. In the Algerian policy, Modern Standard Arabic (MSA hereafter) is the language used in classroom settings. However, it is generally agreed among educationists, that the achievement of low levels is mainly linked to the complexities of the literary language used in formal instruction and the various colloquial forms reserved for non-formal contexts. Children acquire Algerian Arabic as a mother tongue, while Standard Arabic is learned later on through access to formal instruction. The pupils’ educational problems and the persistent feelings of linguistic insecurity are directly attributed to diglossia. Through collecting and analyzing data by means of a number of sociolinguistic tools, the researcher tried, in this study, to compare between two school settings to show the extent to which diglossia affects the learning process among first grade pupils by: exploring the variety used in classroom interaction, insisting on the language difficulties encountered by young pupils and detecting their attitudes towards the forms of Arabic used in classroom interaction.

Book Synopsis Arabic as One Language by : Mahmoud Al-Batal
Download or read book Arabic as One Language written by Mahmoud Al-Batal and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, students learning the Arabic language have begun with Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and then transitioned to learning spoken Arabic. While the MSA-first approach neither reflects the sociolinguistic reality of the language nor gives students the communicative skills required to fully function in Arabic, the field continues to debate the widespread adoption of this approach. Little research or evidence has been presented about the effectiveness of integrating dialect in the curriculum. With the recent publication of textbooks that integrate dialect in the Arabic curriculum, however, a more systematic analysis of such integration is clearly becoming necessary. In this seminal volume, Mahmoud Al-Batal gathers key scholars who have implemented integration to present data and research on the method’s success. The studies address curricular models, students' outcomes, and attitudes of students and teachers using integration in their curricula. This volume is an essential resource for all teachers of Arabic language and those working in Teaching Arabic as a Foreign Language (TAFL).
Book Synopsis The Impact of Diglossia on Arabic Language Instruction in Higher Education by : Eva Hashem-Aramouni
Download or read book The Impact of Diglossia on Arabic Language Instruction in Higher Education written by Eva Hashem-Aramouni and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to review the core Arabic curriculum in higher education at four-year colleges and language institutions in the United States to find the extent to which these institutions are preparing their students to communicate effectively in the Arab-speaking world after completing the equivalent of six semesters of Arabic or achieving high-intermediate proficiency. This study investigated students' perceptions and learning preferences for spoken Arabic. It also examined instructors' perceptions on teaching preferences of spoken Arabic. The students interviewed for this research had all traveled to the Arabic-speaking world for language immersion study, and were considered to have acquired high-intermediate proficiency. The primary countries of destination were Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. This study was undertaken in direct response to the paucity of literature pertaining to English-speaking learners of Arabic on study abroad. In actual fact, the Modern Language Association's most recent language report states that Arabic enrollment increased more than any other language from 2002 to 2006 (Furman, Goldberg, & Lusin, 2007). With the increase in Arabic enrollment, it is probable that more and more American students will desire to study Arabic in the Arabic-speaking world, and that more research is needed to guide Arabic language instruction and immersion study. Four research questions guided this study. The overall question aimed at finding the impact that diglossia has on the quality of Arabic language instruction of undergraduates students in the United States. To answer this, the second question investigated the students' learning preferences and the third question investigated the instructors' teaching preferences. The last one attempted to find the differences between students who study spoken Arabic before immersion and those who do not. Based on four research questions, the findings of the study indicated that diglossic situations, availability of classes, and usefulness of MSA top the list of the students' and instructors' themes that emerged from data analysis. The study revealed that some Arabic programs are not preparing the students sufficiently in the Arabic spoken language acquisition. However, it also documented that both student and instructor participants think Modern Standard Arabic should continue to hold a prominent place in the Arabic curriculum. The study concludes by providing some recommendations peculiar to the field of teaching Arabic as a foreign language in United States. It also includes a set of areas in which further research is needed as well as the limitations of the study. It is recommended that faculty review the study and use the data to guide curriculum development efforts. This should ultimately result in improved curriculum alignment with the (ACTFL) American Council for Teachers of Foreign Languages standards and improve graduates' performance in speaking competency and fluency in Arabic. It is hoped that this research will provide empirical insights pertaining to the linguistic experiences of the learners of Arabic in the study abroad programs in the Arabic-speaking world.

Download or read book Sacred Language, Ordinary People written by N. Haeri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-01-03 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cultures and politics of nations around the world may be understood (or misunderstood) in any number of ways. For the Arab world, language is the crucial link for a better understanding of both. Classical Arabic is the official language of all Arab states although it is not spoken as a mother tongue by any group of Arabs. As the language of the Qur'an, it is also considered to be sacred. For more than a century and a half, writers and institutions have been engaged in struggles to modernize Classical Arabic in order to render it into a language of contemporary life. What have been the achievements and failures of such attempts? Can Classical Arabic be sacred and contemporary at one and the same time? This book attempts to answer such questions through an interpretation of the role that language plays in shaping the relations between culture, politics, and religion in Egypt.
