Hello I'm from Syria so I speak Arabic and I also speak Spanish and I came across a lot of the words that you mentioned but I've came across a big set of words that are too close from words in my native dialect such as Pantalones بنطلون (pants) Camisa قميص (shirt) Zapatos صبَّاط (shoes) So how can we explain that?

Please note that Arabic is a miraculous language unlike any other language. I mean standard Arabic not the colloquial dialects . A normal illiterate Arab can understand well the Quran and the Hadith well inspite of the fact that they are dated back 15 centuries ago, while for example highly educated people of you can't understand English 7 centuries ago.and so do all the other nations regarding their respective languages. Standard Arabic is not only represented in the religious books but also in newspapers , many tv shows, all tv news, historical tv drama , documental channels and even children cartoons. and of course in the educational system. many Arabs communicate in comments in standard Arabic as not every Arab is supposed to know the colloquial dialect of the other. From the other hand Shakespearean English for example is not used in educational system, not used in cartoons , not used in tv shows and tv news , not used in newspapers. It's only used to study old literature and theater. All the languages that were contemporary to Arabic are now dead. Aramaic, Assyrian, Coptic , Greek, latin.etc. We are lucky to have a library of 15 centuries books , that an Arab can read directly in their original texts, while other nations have a library of books that can't go past 5 centuries ago, otherwise they would need a translation to nowadays language to understand. So Arabic is the oldest live language now on earth. Can you guess why? Why Arabic in particular? Whereas ANY OTHER LANGUAGE, their people usually can't keep it for more than 5 centuries ,and it alters gradually and a new language is born and so on. I hope you get my point of view and I would welcome your criticizing opinions if any. Thanks alot

As a native Spanish speaker, I'm fascinated by the influence of Arabic in Spanish, and by this time period. When I was 7-8 (Internet didn't exist lol) I had a Larousse dictionary and it had a section on Arab art, culture, language, etc. I was in love with the Arabic alphabet (abjad, actually) and modified it to write in Spanish, lol. So I wrote on many notebooks in something that looked like fake Arabic but was actually Spanish. :P Unfortunately, Arabic is as beautiful as it is difficult. I dare say Arabs have an easier time with Spanish than we Hispanophones do with Arabic. Allah knows I just can't pronounce ʿayn correctly no matter what! Maybe one day I'll put in more effort. I still love Arabic, though, and Arab countries' food and music. :D

Here in Mexico we use an Arabic word that is used in nowhere else of the Spanish-speaking world: alberca, in Arabic is البركة , which means " the pond" and we use it to refer to a swimming pool. Most other Spanish-speakers use piscina, which is derived from Latin. In rural Mexico you'll be able to hear many words from Arabic origin because this country was colonized by the Spanish merely 30 years after the fall of Granada. They will often refer to blue eyes as "zarcos", which comes from the Arabic word for blue الأزرق.

[@yassintriggerdellarobia]

Wow it's interesting

[@LojaCompany]

En España sì que existe y se usa la palabra "alberca", pero con un significado ligeramente distinto. Aquí se utiliza para denotar una piscina de agua al abierto de uso exclusivamente agrícola. Zarcos sin embargo no lo he escuchado nunca

[@davidsuarezdelis5856]

As José Antonio mentions, "alberca" is indeed used in Spain, it refers to water ponds for agricultural uses, which are ubiquitous throughout the South and East parts of Andalucía, Murcia and País Valenciano (the most and longest Arab-controlled territories of all the peninsula). Even today, many people builds pools and calls them albercas so they don't have to pay the corresponding immobiliary tax to Hacienda (IRS...)... typical Spanish... :-) And yes, "ojos zarcos" is still used in Spain as well, although is not a common expression anymore... It's, nevertheless, common and typical that peripheral areas are more conservative that more central areas: most american Spanish is, in many ways, more conservative and even somewhat archaic in usage when compared to Spain: that's something that happens with all languages and it's wonderful, so many beautiful words that fall in oblivion here keep living and well out there! With most of the speakers outside Spain, it's reassuring, the vocabulary of the language will keep rich and varied for a long time... :-)

[@ninibbinar8247]

amazing !

[@RoderickVI]

In Peru "alberca" is also used, it just denotes a pond rather than a pool. In Catalan the word for "alberca" is "safareig", "piscina" is just "piscina". Maybe in parts of Mexico alberca is used instead of piscina because people used to go for a swim in ponds? Some countries have the tradition of pond swimming, even if that is lost now, it might give way to your word for it.

Native Spanish speaker here. First of all, even though most words of Arabic origin are indeed nouns, there is one word in particular that we use all the time: the preposition "hasta" (until). It derives from the Arabic word "hattá". Spanish is pretty unique in the use of this preposition. Most Romance languages kept the original Latin preposition. I believe that Portuguese "até" (until) may have the same Arabic origin as well. Catalan, spoken in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, uses "fins (a)". In terms of vocabulary, "ojalá" (God willing) is probably the most common one. I also use "azotea" (terrace on the roof) and"alfajor" (from Ar. "fasur", which comes from Persian "afsor", meaning "juice", although we use it for a dessert, not for liquids). Other common lexical items of Arabic origin are "alcalde" (city mayor), "alambre" (wire), "aljibe" (well, from where water was retrieved), "albahaca" (basil), "alguacil" (civil servant, functionary, from "awazír"), "almohada" (pillow), "almohadón" (cushion), and "alfombra" (carpet). "Zaguán" reminded me of my childhood in Uruguay. We (still) use it there! Most of these words are related to our household or denote important positions in government.

I am actually from Andalucía and I have to say that a great percentage of our regional vocabulary is Arabic. For example, that word you used for hallway (zaguán) is mostly used in Andalucía, and it is still used. We also use: words like alcaucil (artichoke or alcachofa in standard Spanish, which is also Arabic), alcancía (piggybank), babuchas (we use it to refer to the flipflops used at home), ajonjolí (sesame), alfajor (a Christmas sweet in Andalucía), the most important monuments of my city (Seville) are la Giralda (an Arabic alminar) and el Alcazar (an Arabic palace), the most important river in Andalucía is called Guadalquivir, there are a lot of villages like Alcalá de Guadaira, some Andalusian dishes like Gazpacho, Chicharrón, and much more. It should be said that I also heard some of these words from Latin-American speakers, but it is normal since the ships that went to America departed from my region, more concretely from Huelva, and the sailors were from Seville and Cadiz, and the business with America took place in Seville, and later in Cadiz. All Andalusian provinces. That also explains Latin-American accent, which is very similar to ours. So, we use a lot of Arabic loanwords. There are also some scholars that affirm that our accent came also from Arabic, but that's a bit controversial. I also have to tell you that the name Guadalajara (which is Arabic as you rightly said) comes originally from Spain, it is a province of Castile-La Mancha.

My grandma comes from Andalusia (shout-out to (obviously arab named) Alcaudete, Jaen!) but I´m Canadian, and had to pick up Spanish from school (only my dad spoken Madrid Castillian) and the c and z confuses me endlessly... Natrually, in school I was being taught some approximately south american standard dialect, and so the two letters sounded like "s" in English, I would get home and get corrected... Madrid Castillian they are hard "th" sounds... I remember hearing my grandmother talk and she had a thick andalusian accent, the last syllable was always missing on basically every word, and it was "th" "th" "th" everywhere, ... like her favourite (obviously arab named) vegetable: azelgas (chard?) came out (top my ears ) as athelga ... so If my grandma has a thick andalusian accent, she has the "th" sound, then how did South American get this other sound? Does the accent vary east-west in Andalusia or something?

One time i was in the US, i heard in TV news they were talking about a narco nicknamed "El Alacrán" (the scorpion), but spanish articles in english are not often understood, they just merge them with the word, so the news anchor kept saying "The El-Alacrán".

In Turkish, oranges are also called Portakal.

I am a both Arabic and Spanish native speaker, I have noted the similarities between these two languages e.g. (fulan-فلان) and it's used when one talks about an unspecific person, there' is also (camisa, bidón, ojalá etc.)

[@brunofeitosafl]

I can not believe that "fulano" that has the same use here in Brazil comes from there! So interesting!

[@AtomicBoo]

Bruno Feitosa never knew fulano was from arabic origin and here I thought it was exclusively a Spanish word "pinche fulano hahah"

[@euoisaboi1669]

Arabic is a dialect of the Phoenician Language and the Phoenicians occupied Ancient Spain and Sicily. In fact the word "Spain" means "New Phoenicia'" from 𐤇𐤃𐤔𐤒𐤉𐤍. I encourage Arabs to learn the Parent of Arabic.

How about "mengano" and "zutano", do they also come from Arabic? "Mengano" does indeed come from the Arabic "man kān" ("whoever"), but "zutano" comes from "citano", from the Latin word "scitanus", and this from "scitus" ("known").

[@euoisaboi1669]

The Arabic, fulano was borrowed from Ancient Greek. ψευδώνυμος.

Some really common words of Arabic origin in European Portuguese are azeite, alface, cenoura, saloio, açorda, albatroz, alazão, alcateia, alecrim, alfândega, alfarroba, alfinete, algema, alicate, almirante, almofada, almofariz, alperce, alvará, armazém, arroba, auge, azar, azul, azulejo, enxaqueca, fulano, garrafa, javali, jasmim, limão, refém, xarope. My brother and I were brainstorming but we're out of ideas Edit: adding lezíria, alfaiate, alfazema, alcagoita (ideas from the comments) I didn't put any toponym in my list on purpose.

Meia parte dessas palavras são tiradas da língua Grega, compatriota.

Inês Almeida I speak Spanish and I have understood all these words

[@yahyaschannel8334]

@ Inês Almeida Actualy your name itself sounds Arabic. Inas is a pretty common name in Arab countries, and Almeida reminds me of Al-Mai'da which means the table. Greetings from Morocco.

Alfama, lezíria(?)

[@inesalmeida2199]

@@yahyaschannel8334 Almeida is indeed of Arabic origin, it's the name of a town on a plateau in the North of Portugal, hence the table. Inês/Inés comes from Greek though, although I don't doubt that the phonetics has been altered by Arabic influence, since its cognates in other European languages are things like Agnes.
