Hijazi Arabic (also known as Hejazi Arabic, West Arabian Arabic) is a variety of the Arabic language spoken in the western
region of Saudi Arabia. Although, strictly speaking, there are two distinct dialects spoken in the Hejaz region, one by the
bedouin and rural tribes, and another by the urban population, the term most often applies to the urban variety, spoken in
cities such as Jeddah, Mecca, Yanbu, and Medina. Outside of Arabia, Urban Hejazi appears to be most closely related to the
Arabic dialects of Northern Sudan and Upper Egypt (Ingham 1971). |
