Jordanian Arabic is a continuum of mutually intelligible varieties of Levantine Arabic spoken by the population of the Kingdom of Jordan. Jordanian Arabic varieties are Semitic, with lexical influences from English, Turkish and French. They are spoken by more than 6 million people, and understood throughout the Levant and, to various extents, in other Arabic-speaking regions. As in all Arabic-speaking countries, language use in Jordan is characterized by diglossia; Modern Standard Arabic is the official language used in most written documents and the media, while daily conversation is conducted in the local colloquial varieties. ==Sub-dialects of Jordanian Arabic== Although there is a common Jordanian dialect mutually understood by most Jordanians, the daily language spoken throughout the country varies significantly through regions and socio-economical origin. These variants impact altogether pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary. Jordanian Arabic falls into three varieties * Urban Jordanian - belonging to the urban variety of the Levantine Arabic language * Rural Jordanian - belonging to the southern rural varieties of the Levantine Arabic language * Bedouin Jordanian - belonging to the Levantine Bedawi Arabic. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jordanian Arabic」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
