sedentary and bedouin dialects, those "in Sinai and on the Mediterranean coast west of Alexandria up to the Libyan border" (p. 64)

"standard dialect of Cairo" (p. 64)

"There are ʻsedentaryʼ dialects with different amounts of Maghrebi admixture according to the area: in the western Delta, the northern oases, and Upper Egypt south of Asyut." (p. 64); eastern Delta closer to Sinai and Palestine (cf. de Jong 2000, p. 622); central and southern Egypt related to Hijazi Arabic (cf. Reichmuth 1983, p. 28ff.); further south to Sudanese Arabic (cf. de Jong 2002, p. 358) < -> Arabic dialect continuum!? >

"transitional are between eastern and western Arabic" (p. 64)

"immigration of different Arab tribes" (p. 64), but no "pidginization or creolization" (p. 64)

Arab settlement after conquest in 7th century (p. 65)

claim: dialects of Delta and Nile Valley until El Minya are "earliest linguistic stratum" (p. 65)

Yemeni and Northern Arab tribes in Egypt (p. 65)

"By the end of the tenth century" the Yemenis had left (tough maybe not all) in 10th century to Ifriqiya (p. 68f.): "presence of Yemenis is attested for the duration of three centuries" (p. 69)

3.1.2 Dialect (p. 69)

phonological communalities between Egyptian and Yemeni dialects (p. 69–71); "both dialect areas are very conservative", so no "evidence for an early Egypt-Yemen connection" here (p. 71)

short demonstratives are common among the two (p. 71)

lexically not much is common, two agricultural terms are given (p. 72)

"Certainly, modern EA shares more items with Levantine Arabic than with any other Arabic dialect region, but many of these go back to much later contacts in Mameluke and Ottoman times (Lentin 1995: 134)." (p. 72)

Dialect literature

[edit]

(for the section "Publications" in Egyptian Arabic)

The dialogs in the following novels are partly in Egyptian Arabic, partly in Standard Arabic: Mahmud Tahir Haqqi's Adhra' Dinshuway (Arabic: عذراء دنشواي; 1906), Yaqub Sarruf's Fatat Misr (Arabic: فتاة مصر, romanizedFatāt Miṣr; first published in Al-Muqtataf 1905–1906), and Mohammed Hussein Heikal's Zaynab (1914).[1]

Early stage plays written in Egyptian Arabic were translated from or influenced by European playwrights. Muhammad 'Uthman Jalal translated plays by Molière, Racine and Goldoni to Egyptian Arabic and adapted them as well as ten fables by Jean de La Fontaine. Yaqub Sanu translated to and wrote plays on himself in Egyptian Arabic.[2] Many plays were written in Standard Arabic, but performed in colloquial Arabic. Tawfiq al-Hakim took this a step further and provided for his Standard Arabic plays versions in colloquial Arabic for the performances.[3] Mahmud Taymur has published some of his plays in two versions, one in Standard, one in colloquial Arabic, among them: Kidb fi Kidb (Arabic: كذب في كذب, lit.'All lies', 1951[4] or ca. 1952) and Al-Muzayyifun (Arabic: المزيفون, romanizedAl-Muzayyifūn, lit.'The Forgers', ca. 1953).[5] TODO: xxxxxx add the others!!!

The writers of stage plays in Egyptian Arabic after the Egyptian Revolution of 1952 include No'man Ashour, Alfred Farag, Saad Eddin Wahba [ar], Rashad Roushdy, and Yusuf Idris.[4] Thereafter the use of colloquial Egyptian Arabic in theater is stable and common.[6] Later writers of plays in colloquial Egyptian include Ali Salem, and Naguib Surur.[4]

Novels in Egyptian Arabic after the 1940s and before the 1990s are rare. There are by Mustafa Musharrafah [ar] Qantarah Alladhi Kafar (Arabic: قنطرة الذي كفر, romanizedQanṭarah Alladhī Kafar, lit.'Qantara Who Disbelieved', Cairo, 1965) and Uthman Sabri's (Arabic: عثمان صبري, romanizedʻUthmān Ṣabrī; 1896–1986) Journey on the Nile (Egyptian Arabic: رحلة في النيل, romanized: Riḥlah fī il-Nīl, 1965)[7] (and his Bet Sirri (بيت سري, Bēt Sirri, 'A Brothel', 1981) that apparently uses a mix of Standard Arabic and Egyptian Arabic[8]).

Prose published in Egyptian Arabic since the 1990s include the following novels: Yusuf al-Qa'id's Laban il-Asfur (لبن العصفور, Laban il-ʿAṣfūr, 'The Milk of the Bird'; 1994),[9] Baha' Awwad's (Arabic: بهاء عواد, romanizedBahāʾ ʿAwwād) Shams il-Asil (شمس الاصيل, Shams il-ʿAṣīl, 'Late Afternoon Sun'; 1998), Safa Abdel Al Moneim's Min Halawit il-Ruh (من حلاوة الروح, Min Ḥalāwit il-Rōḥ, 'Zest for Life', 1998), Samih Faraj's (Arabic: سامح فرج, romanizedSāmiḥ Faraj) Banhuf Ishtirasa (بانهوف اشتراسا, Bānhūf Ishtirāsā, 'Bahnhof Strasse', 1999); autobiographies include the one by Ahmed Fouad Negm, by Mohammed Naser Ali [ar] Ula Awwil (اولى أول, Ūlá Awwil, 'First Class Primary School'), and Fathia al-Assal's Hudn il-Umr (حضن العمر, Ḥuḍn il-ʿUmr, 'The Embrace of a Lifetime').[10][11]

The epistolary novel Jawabat Haraji il-Gutt (Sa'idi Arabic: جوابات حراجى القط, romanized: Jawābāt Ḥarājī il-Guṭṭ, lit.'Letters of Haraji the Cat', 2001) by Abdel Rahman el-Abnudi is exceptional in its use of Saʽidi Arabic.[10]

21th-century journals publishing in Egyptian Arabic include Bārti (from at least 2002), the weekly magazine Idhak lil-Dunya (اضحك للدنيا, Iḍḥak lil-Dunyā, 'Smile for the World', from 2005),[12][13] and the monthly magazine Ihna [ar] (احنا, Iḥna, 'We', from 2005).[14]

Can this be observed in ordinal speech?

Orthography and romanization

[edit]

Orthography

[edit]

There is no fixed orthography for Egyptian Arabic. Where it is written in Arabic script the orthography varies between more conservative spellings closer to those of Standard Arabic and spellings closer to the phonology of Egyptian Arabic. This variability arises from the deficiency of the Arabic script for writing the colloquial Egyptian Arabic, for which it is not designed. Part of this is the unavailability of signs for some sounds of Egyptian Arabic that are not part of Standard Arabic.[16] Both options are used in parallel, often even in by one author or in one work.[17][18] The two options appears for example for these cases:

  • treatment of originally long vowels that become short or deleted as a result of vowel shortening or vowel deletion, e.g. the feminine active participle of عرف, ʿirif, 'to know', that is pronounced [ˈʕarfa], can be written in two ways:
    • etymological spelling with the shortly pronounced originally long vowel "ا": عارفة,
    • phonetic spelling without the "ا": عرفة;
  • words written with the letters "ث"‏, "ذ", and "ظ" in Standard Arabic that are pronounced /t/, /z/, and // in Egyptian Arabic can keep their etymological Standard Arabic spelling or be phonetically respelled with "ت"‏, "د" and "ض".

Romanization

[edit]

TODO:

  • perhaps add Aboul-Fetouh 1969, pp. 12–13, 1.41 Segmentals?
  • IPA: give only phonemes for Levantine Arabic#Orthography and writing systems as well??? perhaps change [] to //???
  • note regarding the ye masriyy; also ي might not be used by Hinds/Badawi?
  • (DONE) Spitta: add other locations of the book used: only for epenthetic vowel
  • (NOT DONE) make table accessible (accessibility should be okay, no much needed modifications)
  • add transcriptions for lost sounds/letters where I haven't looked them up yet
  • write on the status of [e] and [o], cf. Watson 2002, p. 22, 2.4.3 Diphthongs: "Among some Cairene speakers, the monophthongs are shortened in closed syllables to give short e and o […]" and Woidich 2006, seems to be from Woidich in Watson 2002, cf. Watson 2002, p. 48.

In the table below romanizations by different authors starting with Spitta's from 1880 are given as examples of the variety of those used. Where authors use custom glyphs the ones given try the best available approximation. The use of transcribing glyphs among different authors and between those and a representation of Egyptian Arabic in Arabic script (in doubt Hinds & Badawi 1986 is used above) can't be exactly aligned because different authors use different analyses of the studied language, especially regarding the vowel system. Here also the table below tries to give a good approximation.

      • Harrell, p. 54: "sawra"
    • sanya (in Hinds & Badawi 1986, p. 140 only with ث)

Why not to use a romanization/IPA mix:

  • what does "j" mean now? "ʕ" is also unclear
  • giving a phonetic or phonemic phonology(?) is not the idea of a transcription, rather to give something between original orthography/morphology/phonology, so probably IPA characters will be used (morphologically) in places where they're not pronounced like they might indicate read as IPA literally
  • IPA is further from Latin alphabet, so contradict the idea of making it easier to grasp morphophonology

  • use ⟨g⟩, ⟨ɑ⟩, ⟨o⟩, ⟨e⟩, ⟨ɑ̄⟩ ⟨ō⟩, ⟨ē⟩
  • use ⟨ʿ⟩ ⟨ʾ⟩
  • TODO: how to handle two phonologies of qaf? Levantine Arabic#Orthography and writing systems gives ⟨q̄⟩ from Liddicoat, Lennane & Abdul Rahim 2018, pp. 3–4, 13–17, 20 (pages?), but it says "The strike-through bar is used […]" (p. 20), so maybe rather use ⟨q̶⟩ (q with long stroke overlay) (or ⟨q̵⟩ (q with short stroke overlay))

Seems to generally follow the possessive pronoun suffixes from the table "Forms of the independent and clitic pronouns".

The final -i of the prepositions فِي, fi, بِـ, bi and لِـ, li is subject to pre-suffix vowel lengthening. (other final vowels as well)

مَن, min and عَن, ʿan: "monomoraic prepositions ending in /n/ undergo n-gemination before pronoun suffixes" (Watson 2002, p. 89, 5.2.3 Degenerate feet and the minimal word)

xxxxx

In prepositional phrase circumflex negation (cf. Kalaam Gamiil, vol. 1, p. 142 (lesson 6)). Here the first a of ma3a can be have "haplologische Silbenellipse" (cf. Woidich 2006, p. 139). I think this is not mentioned in Watson 2002, 9.1.2.1 Vowel deletion, p. 229-231.

Noun morphology

[edit]

(following Woidich 2006, pp. 90–105, 2.4.2 Nominalschemata)

Gender

[edit]

(following Woidich 2006, pp. 111–112, 2.4.8 Genus der Substantive)

Nouns are masculine or feminine. Animate nouns referring to gendered people or animals usually agree with the gender of what they refer to like in Classical Arabic.

Nouns ending in the feminine suffix ـة, -a are usually feminine. Exeptions are nouns referring to males such as جَلِيفَة, khalīfa, 'successor, Caliph', عُمْدَة, ʿumda, 'village chief' and خَوَاجَة, khawāga, 'European or western foreigner'.[46]

Nouns not ending in the feminine suffix ـة, -a are usually masculine. Exceptions from this rule are:[47]

  • nouns referring to females such as أُخْت, ukht, 'sister', أُمّ, umm, 'mother', بِنْت, bint, 'daughter', فَرَس, faras, 'mare', عَانِس, ʿānis, 'spinster', مَدَامِوَازِيل, madmiwazēl, 'young unmarried woman', مَدَام, madām, 'married woman' and سِتّ, sitt, 'woman'
  • names of cities and countries such as مَصْر, maṣr, 'Egypt'
  • names of letters such as أَلِب, alif, 'alif'
  • a number of nouns many of which refer to body parts such as أَرْض, arḍ, 'earth, soil', إِيد, īd, 'hand', بَطْن, baṭn, 'abdomen', بَلَد, balad, 'country', حَرْب, ḥarb, 'war', دَار, dār, 'house', دَقْن, daq̶n, 'chin, beard', دِمَاغ, dimāgh, 'top of the head, skull', شَمْس, shams, 'sun', رَاس, rās, 'head', رِجْل, rigl, 'foot, leg', طَرِيق, ṭarīq̶, 'road',[48] طِيز, ṭīz, 'buttocks', عَين, ʿēn, 'eye', عالَم, ʿālam, 'people', قَدَم, q̶adam, 'foot', مَرْكِب, markib, 'boat, ship',[49] نَار, nār, 'fire', نَفُوج, nafūkh, 'crown of the head',[50] نَاس, nās, 'people',[51] نَفْس, nafs, 'self, psyche, mind', نَفْس, nifs, 'appetite, desire' and وِدْن, widn, 'ear'

In some cases a final shortened ـى, -a and ـا, -a (from <*ـاء, *-āʾ) is reinterpreted as a feminine suffix and the noun functions as feminine, e.g. مُسْتَشْفَى, mustashfa, 'hospital' and إِمْضَا, imḍa, 'signature'[52].

Construct state

[edit]

Nouns assume the construct state when they are definite and modified by another noun as the first term in a iḍāfah (Classical Arabic: إِضَافَةٌ, iḍāfah), the Arabic realization of a genitive construction.

The second term of the iḍāfah (in Classical Arabic: المُضاف إلَيْهِ, al-muḍāf ilayhi) can be a noun or a possessive suffix. If a possessive suffixed is attached to a short vowel the vowel is subject to pre-suffix vowel lengthening.

A few masculine nouns change in construct state, e.g. أَبّ, abb, 'father' becomes أَبُو, abu; أَخّ, akhkh, 'brother' becomes أَخُو, akhu.[53]

The feminine suffix ـة, -a is changed to -it in construct state, e.g. أُوضِة نَوم, ōḍit nōm, 'bedroom' and أُوضِتِي, ōḍiti, 'my room'. Deviating from this for the construct state of مَرَة, mara, 'woman, wife' (<Classical Arabic: مَرْأَة, marʾah) مِرَاة, mirāt (<Classical Arabic: اِمْرَأَة, imraʾat) is used; for the construct state of حَمَة/حَمَاة, ḥama, 'mother-in-law' حَمَاة, ḥamāt is used.[54]

Woidich 2006, 2.4.2.1 TODO notation:

Adjectival stem forms

[edit]

cf. Gadalla 2000, pp. 169–212

"Table (50) shows that adjectival stem forms which are identical in SA and EA have one of six templates: [CVCC], [CVCVC], [CVCVVC], [CVCCVVC], [CVCCaan], or [?aCCVC]. The last template is also used in comparative forms (See 4.6.2)."

Adjectives follow several stem forms or patterns. The nominal patterns for adjectives are often the same like those for nouns. But some are especially used for adjectives, e.g. Fa3iiL (فَعِيل faʿīl), Fa3uuL, Fi3aLi and Fu3aLi.[58]

In most cases the unmarked adjective forms are the forms for the masculine singular or the forms for all genders and numbers. An exception is the pattern Fa3La for feminine adjectives corresponding to the masculine aF3aL.

The following table shows known adjective patterns, their consonant/vowel templates and their equivalents in Standard Arabic (SA).

[edit]

cf. Gadalla 2000, 4.6. Inflection for Degree, Woidich 2006, p. 125–127, 2.4.9.6.4 Elativ aKKaK

Elative adjectives (those adjectives having a comparative and superlative meaning) aren't inflected (as they are in Standard Arabic); instead, one form serves for all genders and numbers.

  • aCCaC (aF3aL)
  • aCaCC (aFa33) (from roots med. gem.) (rule: Identical-Consonant Metathesis)
  • aCCa (from roots tert. inf.)[64]
  • aCwaC/aCyaC (from roots med. inf.)[64]
  • participles and nouns: partly formed with following aktar
  • adjectives: CaCCaan, CaCCaaC, CaCuuC etc. and nisba -i: following aktar

Verb morphology

[edit]

Table of verb forms

[edit]

model: Arabic verbs#Formation of derived stems ("forms")

Patterns of quadriliteral roots (roots with four radicals) are typically given using the dummy verb faʿlal (root: ف-ع-ل-ل). However, the choice of this particular verb is somewhat non-ideal in that the third and fourth consonants of an actual verb are typically not the same, despite the same consonant used for both; this is a particular problem e.g. for form IVq. The verb table below uses the dummy verb faʿlaq (root: ف-ع-ل-ق) instead.

Rare forms are marked in silver.

  1. ^ Some intransitive form I verbs take the فَعْلَان, faʿlān adjective together with or in place of the فَاعِل, fāʿil form as active participle, cf. Watson 2002, p. 156, 6.5.7.2 The faclān adjective.
  2. ^ According to Abdel-Massih, Abdel-Malek & Badawi 1981, p. 297, Verb: Triliterals classified by stem measure the imperfect vowel is often:
    • a: next to pharyngeals and glottals (gutturals): /ʔ, h, ħ, ʕ/ (written ء, ه, ح, ع), but usually not next to /ʔ/ (<*q; written ق)
    • u: next to the uvulars and velars /q, k, g, x, ɣ/ (written ق, ك, ج, خ, غ) and to and emphatic consonants /tˤ, dˤ, sˤ, zˤ, rˤ/ if there is no adjacent pharyngeal or glottal consonant
    • u: next to a glottal stop /ʔ/ from underlying <*q (written ق)
    • i: otherwise.
  3. ^ Now rare, probably much more common in 19th-century Cairene (cf. Watson 2002, p. 134, 6.5 Level-one verbal morphology, fn. 9). Woidich 1995, p. 279 says that they are contemporarily mainly used in the central Delta. Examples from Woidich 2006, p. 62, 2.3.2.1.1 a-Perfekt und i-Perfekt: xuluS, q(2)udum, ghulub, nudur, Su3ub 3la w. (Mentioned by Spitta 1880, p. 194, § 91 1).)
  4. ^ a b c d e f g For transitive verbs the participles of the derived forms, i.e. all forms but I and Iq, have active and passive meaning (cf. Woidich 2006, p. 84, 2.3.7.1 Das aktive Partizip, b.) with the exception of the participles of hollow roots in form IV and X (cf. Watson 2002, p. 158, 6.5.7.3 Verbal participles of derived verbs, fn. 37). There are also classicized patterns for participles of derived forms.
  5. ^ a b c d The ت, t of the اِتْـ, it- prefix is in some cases assimilated to the following first root consonant. Different information can be found in the literature about the consonants with which this assimilation occurs whether the assimilation is mandatory or optional and what the result of the assimilation is. The following table gives an overview on the information from Watson 2002, p. 222, 8.2.3 Assimilation of t- of the detransitivizing prefix and Woidich 2006, p. 69, 2.3.3.2.3 t-Stämme.

    /g/ ج optional /t/+/g//tg/ ~ /gg/ optionally partial /t/+/g//dg/ ~ /gg/
    Velar fricative /ɣ/ غ no assimilation (optionally?) partial /t/+/ɣ//dɣ/

    Watson states optional assimilation for sibilants, but does not give examples for /z/ and //. Woidich lists /ɣ/ under optionally partial assimilation, but does not give an example for its total assimilation.

  6. ^ Counterexamples to this general rule mentioned by Watson 2002, p. 150, 6.5.6.3 Hollow verbs are the verbal nouns اختيار, ikhtiyɑ̄r (from اختار, ikhtɑ̄r, 'choose', ava mikhtɑ̄r, pva mukhtɑ̄r (UAE), cf. Hinds & Badawi 1986, p. 271, خ ى ر 1) and احتياس, iḥtiyās (vn not given by Hinds & Badawi 1986, p. 232, ح و س).

  8. ^ The use of "3" here seems odd, the doubling is part of the pattern, not the root.
  9. ^ There are different names for this form. Abdel-Massih, Abdel-Malek & Badawi 1981, p. 294, Verb: Triliterals classified by stem measure call it "X + II"; El Dik & Iskander 2021, p. XII, Introduction for example call it "form XI".
  10. ^ A special case is اِسْتَنَّى‎‎ (يِسْتَنَّى), istanna (yistanna), 'wait (for)' which is derived from a hypothetical <*istaʿanna (cf. Woidich 2006, p. 71, 2.3.3.2.4 ista-Stamm (Stamm X): istaKKiK ~ istaKKaK, b., Anmerkung). root in Hinds & Badawi 1986: 2ny
  11. ^ The appearance of doubled roots with the ista-+II form with the resulting pattern اِسْتَفَعَّع (يِسْتَفَعَّع), istafaʿʿaʿ (yistafaʿʿaʿ) is questionable. Abdel-Massih, Abdel-Malek & Badawi 1981, p. 294, Verb: Triliterals classified by stem measure lists it with the example استحمّم (يستحمّم), istaḥammam (yistaḥammam), 'bathe', but neither the pattern nor the example could be confirmed with other sources.

  • (more) examples for:
    • X+II R2=G, doubled; X+III; ista+Iq, ista7amma

Participles

[edit]
Active participle
[edit]

Apart from form I the active participle can be derived by taking the 3rd person masculine singular of the imperfect and replacing the prefix يِـ, yi- by مِـ, mi-. The final ـى, -a of defective verbs of the forms V, t-III and the ista-forms is replaced by ـي, -i.[181] In form IX the 'a' of the imperfect is replaced by 'i' resulting in the pattern مِفْعِلّ, mifʿill.[182]

Same seems to be the case for ista+II and Iq, resulting in:

  • مِسْتَفَعِّل, mistafaʿʿil, cf. the table above, the example from Abdel-Massih is استلقّف‎‎ (يِسْتَلَقَّف), xxxxx (xxxxx), 'catch (sth. thrown)' for which Hinds & Badawi 1986, p. 796 gives the AP mistilaQQif,
  • مِفَعْلِل – xxxxx mifaʿlil.
Passive participle
[edit]

Abdel-Massih, Abdel-Malek & Badawi 1981, pp. 196–199, Passive participles: Derivation:

"the passive participle is derived from:"

  1. Transitive verbs
  2. Verbs whose action is transmitted to a recipient by means of a preposition
  3. Passive verbs

often same form as AP

Classicization of participles
[edit]

For active and passive participles, educated speakers usually use the prefix مُـ, mu- instead of مِـ, mi- with another change imitating Standard Arabic, the insertion of ـَ, a before the first radical in forms V, VI and IIq.[183]

In addition, for passive participles they use a/ā instead of the i/ī of the active participle before the last radical.[184]

Classicisms esp. with form IV.

Differentiation of AP and PP by educated speakers:[185]

  • classicism with "a" for PP for differentiation
  • sometimes this cannot be used, then:
    • AP from active form, PP from passive form
    • mi- for AP, mu- for PP ("usually employed when the verb is an active form with no corresponding passive form")

  29. ^ a b c d e f The sounds /p/, /ʒ/ and /v/ can appear in loanwords, but have a marginal status, often they aren't used by less educated speakers, cf. Abdel-Massih 1976, p. 398, System of Transcription; Mitchell 1978, p. 8, B. The system of writing and hints on pronunciation. Examples are:
  30. ^ a b c The sounds of the letters ث‎, ذ and ظ in Standard Arabic are not present in Egyptian Arabic. That's why the romanizations that are not transliterations of the representation of Egyptian Arabic in Arabic script don't give a specific transcription for those letters but rather transcriptions that are the same like for other Arabic letters with the same pronunciation.
  31. ^ As examples see "sánya" (p. 213) and "tálat" (p. 215).
  32. ^ a b c d Used in names.
  33. ^ ⟨ʾ⟩ is used additionally to indicate phonology, but not generally for romanization, see Spitta 1880, p. 12, § 2a 18).
  34. ^ Word-initial.
  35. ^ ⟨ɑ̊⟩ is used to indicate phonology, but not generally for romanization, cf. Spitta 1880, p. 36, § 13b: "ṭɑlɑb (gespr. ṭɑ̊lɑb)".
  36. ^ ⟨e⟩ and ⟨ɑ̊⟩ are used additionally to indicate phonology, but not generally for romanization.
  37. ^ ⟨e⟩ and ⟨ü⟩ are used additionally to indicate phonology, but not generally for romanization, cf. Spitta 1880, p. 40, § 14: "siḥr „Zauber“ (sprich seḥr mit im Gaumen klingendem e)" and "ṣibjân „Jünglinge“ sprich ṣübjân mit dumpfem ü, welches dann zu ṣubjân wird".
  38. ^ At least some authors transcribe stressed anaptyctic vowels like the other short vowels, cf. Spitta 1880, p. 55, § 21g. Betonter Zwischenvocal and Hinds & Badawi 1986, p. XVIII: "Unstressed anaptyctic vowels are represented in small elevated form, while stressed anaptyctic vowels are given in the normal fount."
