Aleppo Arabic orAleppine Arabic is the urbanArabic variety spoken in the city ofAleppo.
Aleppo Arabic is characterised by the usage of /d͡ʒ/ instead of the typical urban /ʒ/ used inDamascus Arabic and inLebanese Arabic.[2]It agrees with Lebanese Arabic with its usage of medial imāla which often turns /aː/ into /eː/. Also has /t͡ʃ/, which is not typical of urban Levantine dialects.[3]
