Compare two dialects of Arabic side by side — where they're spoken, what they're called, and how they relate.
Darija · Moroccan Arabic
The Maghrebi Arabic of Morocco, with heavy Berber substrate and substantial French and Spanish loanwords. Distinct enough from Mashreqi Arabic to function as a separate everyday language.
Tounsi · Derja
The Maghrebi Arabic of Tunisia. Notable for vowel reductions, a rich set of French and Italian loanwords, and a literary written tradition unusual among colloquial Arabic varieties.
