This video aggregates hypotheses and recent elements of research regarding the development of Arabic. I appreciate research is still ongoing and many elements remain to be questioned, analysed or discovered. As explained in the description, there are other hypotheses about the Namara inscription for instance. We can all share the pieces of information we aggregated through our research in the comments, in a respectful way. I made a mistake regarding Syriac, which came later on as a language. But I have corrected the video accordingly.

All recent DNA researches suggests that the ancestry of Arabs in Yemen and the Arabian Peninsula is linked to the Natufian farmers, who inhabited the Levant region over 15,000 years ago. This shared ancestry could explain the similarities between Arabic and other Semitic languages like Canaanite, Phoenician, Aramaic, and Hebrew. However, it is important to remember that language development is influenced by various factors beyond just shared ancestry, including historical interactions, cultural exchange, and geographical isolation.

[@danielhopkins296]

The conflation of script with language is very confusing

[@nofridaynightplans]

The research studies related to the development of the Arabic language typically start with an exploration of the development of writing systems in Arabia. Unfortunately, since the technological marvels of our era did not exist during that time, there are no relics of the sounds of the languages as they were spoken back then. Consequently, researchers rely on these writing systems to trace the evolution of the language. The information presented in the video offers a condensed presentation of this research. I agree that a script does not define a language (as evidenced by Japanese and Chinese, which are separate linguistic entities). However, the discussion about these scripts aims to demonstrate how certain peculiarities of the Arabic language were already present in some scripts at that time, as indicated by the reference to North Arabian. Thank you for your comment.

[@danielhopkins296]

@nofridaynightplans abdolute hogwash! As if philologists of old didn't first trace the history of a people before they explored their language. Early Church Fathers say a man named Scythianus was a Saracen who traded with India and had a disciple named Buddas. Confirming that the Saracen were the Indian Surasena is the fact that in their travels west from Mathura, they dwelt next to the Gedrusi next to the river Arabi : the proto Arabs are sometimes styled Jedur ( Gedrusi). Arrian specifically mentions that they didnt speak sn Indian language. They probably could tead the Aramaic inscriptions of Asoka. Pliny says that Alexander forbade the " fish eating" tribes aligned with the Gedrusi to fish. Here Pliny conflats Alexander with Ashoka who forbade them to fish

[@nofridaynightplans]

@@danielhopkins296 I'm not quite sure what the "hogwash" is in what I wrote.

I am not aware of this Saracen story as it did not appear in my research. And this is not quite the point of the video.

So Nabataean Aramaic and Nabataean Arabic are different in the sense that Nabataean Aramaic evolved into Nabataean Arabic is that accurate, if I can get a response thank you

[@nofridaynightplans]

What is usually assumed is that Nabataean Aramaic was a dialect of Aramaic used by the Nabataeans. Over time, the Nabataeans increasingly adopted Arabic as their spoken language, influenced by their Arab identity. However, they continued to write in the Nabataean Aramaic script. As Arabic became more dominant, the script began to evolve to better accommodate the Arabic language. Aramaic was a major lingua franca at the time. When Cyrus conquered Babylon, he kept the Aramaic language as the lingua franca of the empire instead of imposing Old Persian. Thank you for your comment.

There is a big difference between Arabic LANGUAGE and the Arabic SCRIPT. This speaker often uses them together incorrectly. The Northern & Southern Arabs have been occupied by & intermingled with other Nations & therefore, their spoken Arabic LANGUAGE changed over time as well as their written SCRIPTS. Central Arabia has never been conquered & the Arabs living here had little (if any) contact with the outside world & so their LANGUAGE remained unchanged. Arabs living in towns would send their young kids/babies to live with Bedouins/Nomads in the desert & learn the purer Arabic for many years before going back to their own Families . These are some of the factors which has led to its preservation over many millennia. Classical/Qur'anic Arabic is the most conserved /preserved language of all. In fact, Linguist use Arabic to reconstruct the original Proto Semitic language that was spoken in the region about 6000 years ago. (the earliest known humans lived in Arabia over 100,000 years ago).

[@nofridaynightplans]

I don't think this is correct. I do specify that the peoples that lived in Arabia did not speak Arabic as we know it today. I even explain that despite using similar scripts, they did not speak the same languages... But your take is interesting. Classical Arabic has never changed. How did it come to exist? It must have had an original form, like any language. This implies it has changed over time, doesn't it? Arabs were nomadic merchants... How could they not have had contacts with the outside world? If we take the word فردوس as example, this Arabic word comes from the Persian , پردیس which itself was taken from Greek παράδεισος. The development of languages is a very mysterious thing and there are objective historical reasons that can be explored to understand how they came into existence.

@mikhan5191 Whilst Arabic is indeed very ancient, and has changed very little, it's not the only language used to reconstruct Proto-Semitic, nor should it be. Yes it's the most conservative surviving Semitic language, by far, but there's a few areas it has undergone some innovations.

[@ahmedzuayter2446]

Since you are interested in researching the origins of the Arabic language... Arabic is now written with punctuation (dots above and below the letters). In ancient times, it was written without punctuation and with the same pronunciation, and the Arabs were more eloquent... Another point: Arabic is the mother of the languages. .. The Arabic language includes letters that are difficult for non-Arabs to pronounce and sometimes impossible... such as ( ض) (ع) and others.....

[@nofridaynightplans]

Arabic, like any language, presents its own set of challenges. It is fairly likely you'd struggle to pronounce Chinese sounds, not to mention the intricacies of its various tones. This is because the plasticity of your brain, which allowed you to effortlessly absorb and mimic a wide range of sounds during infancy, diminishes over time. However, these pronunciation challenges can be overcome with dedicated practice and a certain level of adaptability. The loss of eloquence holds true for all languages, especially in our contemporary era. As for the notion that Arabic is the progenitor of all languages, that topic is outside the scope of this channel. Thank you for your comment.

When creating content with no declarations of reference and authenticity responsibility KZbin is the medium of expression. Now a days finding verified information is finding a needle in haystack. Arabic as language was not only established but had a superior status, and was the language of top level literature. So much so its recitation made the Arab’s most literate individuals accept Islam as. Religion. We can understand it’s similar to Magicians accepting Islam in front of Firaon, as they understand that what they experienced was not a human act. Similarly Arabs had the intellect to know it’s not a Human message thus the Quranic Challenge “Create One Surah like this”. As Muslim we need to recognise when a content guides or claims showing ancient relics that Arabic drived from Roman post Christian era….. so I will suggest not to believe any KZbin content unless it’s verified. The root of the word ʿArab (ع-ر-ب) relates to clarity, eloquence, and expressiveness, emphasising the purity of the Arabic language.

The Arabic language most definitely doesn't depend upon the Aramaic language, it's far more archaic and could not possibly have come from it as it's replete with Proto-Semitic features that Aramaic lost in its ancestor languages thousands of years ago.

Bro, the West is afraid of Arabic language because it's survived for more than 2500 years and never changed compared to many languages like English that changed many times throughout the history and some afraid to extinct like French. According to recent research, many languages will extinct, and among these languages is English. This is why Arabic language is almost prohibited in the US. Ironically, the youtube removed autoplay from video talking about the greatness of Arabic language. If you forced playing the video, the KZbin gives you notification its sensitive material 😂 because it's only talking about Arabic language. The Western world is even afraid of the Arabic language 😂. The Arabic language will survive because it's the language chosen by God.

Why would the West be afraid of a language? Especially one that you can actually study at state universities?

The fact is that before the arrival of Muslims in Iran, there were no Arabic books. The alphabet in which the Quran is written originates from Basra and Ctesiphon in the Sassanid Empire, which is now in Iraq. Today's Arabic alphabet and the Naskh and Thuluth scripts were invented by Ibn al-Muqaffa', who was a Zoroastrian Iranian! Now, if you insist on saying the origins are unknown, that's fine, but they are not unknown, and the evidence exists.

[@1364FILM]

You are confused between the map of Iraq after World War III and the Sassanian Empire 1500 years ago! Kufa? Northern Arabic texts?? What is the northernmost Arabic region? You must mean Syria or Iraq? It's better to be knowledgeable than ignorant! Name one pre-Islamic Arabic book and I'll stay quiet! The history of Islam was written by Iranians! It's hard to accept, but it's the truth! Out of the four major Sunni Islamic sects, three were founded by Iranians! Try to digest that.

[@Emiral-Mundhir]

Did you watch the video you dumb poorsian ape? Arabs had 6 scrirpts before conquering your dumbasses. Your people literally use Arabic script, half your dictionary comes from Arabic. You can't finish a sentence in your language without using Arabic loan words. Even before the Arab conquest you used Aramaic - which is also a Semitic langauge in which Arabic is the closest to - to write. Not only that, Iranians had 0 books before Arab influence that aren't basic history and political documents. No poets, philosophers, prose writer, nothing. Just google "Persian poets" and all of them are after the Arab conquest and influence and have Arabic names lol. Name me a single pre Arabized Iranian book with an actual old manuscript that can be compared to low-tier greek writers let alone actual good ones. I'm sure you won't be able to. Even "Persian" writers were writing in Arabic in the persinate world. Most of them come from Afghanistan and uzbekistan who aren't considered Iranians. It must hurt that a 1000 years of "Persian" imperial rule before the Arabs conquered you left less literature than what sumerians left 5000 years ago. This is why you're obssessed with claiming the Muslim writers who are Arabs or influenced by Arabs. Everything you have you owe it to us Semites.

[@abdulrahmanali9407]

Your information is incorrect. The alphabet of the Quran existed centuries before the appearance of Abdullah ibn al-Muqaffa. The Quran was written before the arrival of Muslims to Iran. In fact, before the death of the Prophet Muhammad, the Quran was written and existed among Muslims. The alphabet exists in rocks in my country, Saudi Arabia, and in ancient Yemen as well. There is evidence to prove this matter. This was before the appearance of the Quran and before the appearance of Ibn al-Muqaffa. Ibn al-Muqaffa was merely a translator of Persian heritage into Arabic.

[@abdulrahmanali9407]

@@1364FILM There are heritage viewing sites with written texts about Arab battles and their poetry in Saudi Arabia and in Yemen, the ancient Kingdom of Arabia, as well as in Najd, the capital of Saudi Arabia, written in the ancient Arabic script of the Yemeni Himyar tribe called the Musnad script. Search for it. There are also commercial dealings between the ancient Arab kingdoms before Islam and the Arabic poems that we call the Mu'allaqat that documented those battles and their news in them.
