About this title

Synopsis

Classical Arabic was originated in the family of Semitic languages as a result of the mixing among the languages of peoples lived in the Arabian Peninsula. Nobody knows the exact time of its emergence. We had some knowledge by some stone monuments and oral histories that there were some distinct languages in the south and north of the island. Some of their images remained for us that were seen sometimes in some Arabic dialects later in the aspects of their expression, derivation and synonymous words. The age of this classical Arabic is mentioned by al-Jāḥiẓ in his book: “The Animal”, which is between 150-200 years before Islam.
