An extraordinary history and destiny: Emerging from the mists of time and having gone through the ages without knowing a language in its Semitic past, without undergoing any change in its general plan, the Arabic language was first, and this for millennia a language of Bedouins, before emerging from the shadows and the desert to reach the rank of language of civilization, supplanting many languages.

It has always been respected by its speakers, some of whom have granted it a privileged place in their tribal society and others in their religious and civilized community. She was the pride of some and the glory of others.

His exceptional case continues to fascinate the minds by always being placed at the center of studies, controversies and teaching. Where does it come from, what is its nature and origin, what is its historical course, has it recorded variations today?
