“So, if you are an Egyptian traveling to Tunisia it is very hard to understand them…”
Arabic belongs to the Semitic language family that goes back to thousands of years. Arabic emerged in the mid-fourth century C.E, and has spread very rapidly.
Arabic is characterized by a wide number of varieties; however, Arabic speakers are often able to manipulate the way they speak based on the circumstances.
