These languages have undergone important changes in their lexicon, phonology, morphology, and syntax as a result of over a thousand years of Arabic influence. The social situation of Berber-Arabic language contact is similar all over the region: Berber speakers introducing Arabic features into their language, with only little language shift going on. Moreover, the typological profile of the different Berber varieties is relatively homogenous. The comparison of contact-induced change in Berber therefore adds up to a study in typological variation of contact influence under very similar linguistic and social conditions. 410 0$aStudies in Semitic Languages and Linguistics$v67. 606 $aBerber languages$xForeign elements$xArabic 606 $aArabic language$xInfluence on Berber 606 $aLanguages in contact$zAfrica, North 606 $aFOREIGN LANGUAGE STUDY / African Languages$2bisacsh 615 0$aBerber languages$xForeign elements$xArabic. 615 0$aArabic language$xInfluence on Berber. 615 0$aLanguages in contact 615 7$aFOREIGN LANGUAGE STUDY / African Languages. 676 $a493/.3 700 $aKossmann$b Maarten G$0662475 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965059303321 996 $aThe Arabic influence on Northern Berber$94319550 997 $aUNINA
