Andalusi Arabic is not only the Arabic dialect of which we have the
earliest relatively extensive records providing basic information for
the study of mainly, though not exclusively, Western Neo-Arabic, but
also the spoken language of the Southern and for centuries most
advanced half of the Iberian Peninsula, which had a considerable
impact, most often not sufficiently gauged and surveyed by Western
scholars, on the development of all kinds of Medieval and Modern
culture and science. The present manual describes the different
grammatical levels of this language, phonemics, morphology and syntax,
in addition to the main features of its mixed lexicon and provides
some text samples of diverse periods and locations, plus the usual
indices and technical data. As the fourth survey of this nature by the
same author since 1977, prompted by awareness of a certain lack of
interest in a subject which was by no means exhausted and fully
mastered, it contains the results of several decades of untiring
endeavours and minute analysis of facts detected not only in Arabic
records, but also hidden in the rich array of related witnesses hidden
in the Romance languages of the Iberian Peninsula.
