@@samiman5606Tamazight are not semetic languages. We are speaking about the semetic, the Arabic speakers. Darija is the maghrebi family of Arabic, with just influences from the Tamazight.
It could be more correct to put the Maltese into the darija family, than into the more "pure" arabic. Anyway, Maltese is a separate semitic language, but very relative to the Tunisian and western Libyan arabic. The darija family as i said.
Its crazy that modern Hebrew is so similar to old semitic languages, such that, a dude from Israel can read and understand text that is over 3500 years old.
There are many inconsistencies. For example, why keep Hebrew, Edomite, Moabite, Phoenician, Punic etc. as Canaanite and Maltese, Levantine, Masri, Sudani, etc. as Arabic, but separate Moroccan, Libyan, Tunisian, etc as different from Arabic (marked as Darija)? Maltese is actually generally accepted as a different language from Arabic and is more closely related to the Western dialect continuum than to the Eastern dialects
As a North African i can only say that This map is terrible we in Mauritania speak Hassaniya which is much closer to peninsular Arabic than to Moroccan or Algerian and i really don’t understand why Mauritania and the rest of the Maghreb are just labeled “Darija” which just means dialect whille the rest of the Arab world is labeled “Arabic” is if we speak a different language like Aramaic.. this map is just bad
Oh. I guess we aren’t going to actually show all the languages, but language clusters? While this video is appreciated, it’s disingenuous to the plethora of languages that came from Eurasia. It’s disingenuous to call some of the most major languages in history under the guise of a “language family.” It also excludes Greek and Latin from the region-which had massive impacts on the further evolution of these Semitic languages and cultures.
I can inderstand why you put Darijah as a different language than Arabic, but then why Maltese is Arabic when it is more different than Darijah to Arabic.
as you see this guy zoom out on map mostly general opinion about sematic language speared does not mean only focus on mousel or harran and edessa also after islam lots of arabs move to Khorasan region its wasn't that important in the end because they got assimilated about Elamite not samite or iranic languages .
Why do you not differenicate between Phenocian and Ancient hebrew? Putting them at the same category of "cannanite" is factually wrong.
True
... or are they?
Malta speaks Maltese now (semitic language), not Arabic
The population of malta never really spoke arabic. It transitioned from whatever romance language they spoke to the mix that is maltese
Maltese is really close to Tunisian Arabic, they're mutually intelligible
The Maltese language is mostly Arabic. If I went to Malta, I could understand them
@@eduardomelo151no Maltese descends from Siculo Arabic that was spoken in Sicily
Assyrian language still exists
The Assyrians speak Modern Aramaic
Darija is a bunch of dialects of Arabic
Not true it's Tamazight native

"Darija" is an Arabic word

الدارجة هم العرب صح؟
نعم اصلا دارجة كلمة عربية
لهجة من لهجات اللغة العربية و التي يتحدث بها شعوب الغرب الاسلامي
The languages of the ancient Kingdom in the territory of the Republic of Yemen were spoken in Central Semitic languages
Were Natufians proto-semitic speakers ?
Great Video ❤
Elamites ????
Arab tribes lived in north of Iraq before Islam
Mousel , Harran and Edessa are Arabic
At the end it’s good video ❤❤❤
The language family of the Elamites is currently unknown and is most likely a language isolate unrelated to any others.

about Elamite not samite or iranic languages .
Most of the Arabs who lived in Iraq spoke Aramaic
@@strangehermitman7898Likewise the Sumerians

The khorasani Arabs speak Persian but Arabs of Mousel , Harran and Edessa still speak Arabic
All afro asiatic languages started in Africa
All Afro-Asiatic African were born in Africa, except the so-called Semitic languages, that originated from "Out of Africa" humanity’s migration.
The South Semitic classification is outdated.
