Bareqi Arabic (Arabic:لهجة بارقية) is one of thevarieties of Arabic spoken in many towns and villages aroundBareq inSaudi Arabia.[1][2]
Bareqi Arabic has many aspects that differentiate it from all other dialects in the Arab world. Phonologically, Bareqi Arabic is similar to the majority of Saudi Arabia dialects andHimyaritic language. All Bareqi dialects also share the unusual feature of replacing the definite articleal- with the prefixam-. The dialects of many towns and villages in the wadi and the coastal region are characterized by having changed ج (/dʒ/) to apalatal approximant ي[j] (called/dʒ/ yodization). This feature is also shared withGulf Arabic and a fewOmani dialects[citation needed]
