Greetings / tahaiya tayiba wa b3ad...

The American U. of Cairo Press recently published a book (may be more of a
compendium) about Arabic diglossia and colloquials.

A recent article on Arabic diglossia by Alan K. Kaye at California State
U., Fullerton (currently a visiting associate professor at King Saud U. in
Riyadh until this summer) cited that AUC publication. (I think Charles
Ferguson's original article on diglossia is included in the book's
contents.)

HTH.

Khair, in sha'Allah.

Regards from Los Angeles,
