Do all of the 200 million Arabs belong to one single Arabic ethnos? From the viewpoint of ethnos identification of the ethnology, the answer is apparently not. Although (the symbol is abbreviated) al-Fushah (the standard Arabic) is the formal verbal and written language by all Arabs, (the symbol is abbreviated) al-'Amiyyah (the local living languages) are used to communicate with relatives, friends and neighbors. The local Arabic languages vary substantially. This research identifies the differentiation of all the 'Amiyyah and matches each of them with one ethnos. It concludes that the Arabs are comprised of two fundamental groups, the conglomerate of Arabic ethnos and the conglomerate of non-Arabic ethnos, and the former one can be further divided into thirteen ethnos. This research classifies the Arabs accordingly. |
