📢NEW BOOK ALERT!
'A #Grammar of the #Jewish #Arabic #Dialect of #Gabes' by Wiktor Gębski is now available!
🌍 Dive into the linguistic intricacies of this endangered dialect spoken by the Jews of Gabes, a coastal city in #SouthernTunisia.
Belonging to the category of sedentary #NorthAfrican dialects, this variety is now spoken by a dwindling number of native speakers, primarily in #Israel and #France. Given the imminent extinction faced by many modern varieties of #JudaeoArabic, including #Jewish #Gabes, the study's primary goal is to document and describe its #linguistic nuances while reliable speakers are still accessible.
📊Data for this comprehensive study were collected during fieldwork in Israel and France between December 2018 and March 2022.
