Hi there,

can anyone help me to classify modern Arabic into dialect areas? One of the categorisations frequently mentioned in literature is that into Mahgreb, Egypt, Levantine and Gulf Arabic. Native speakers of Arabic, however, tell me that this classification is too broad and does not work in terms of mutual intelligibility among speakers of the same dialect region. I therefore assume that there must be smaller clusters. Any idea?

Regards,
Rainer
