Abstract:
The present work, the eighth of a series of books on Moroccan secret
languages (the ?u?) of the Tafilalet (TSLs), the south-east of Morocco,
thoroughly investigates three broad categories of the languages in
question. These are the x...x?rx?ll?C, the x?Ca and the x??aCi families.
Each of these involves more than thirty varieties. In the x...x?rx?ll?C
category, a consonant of the word is substituted by the consonant of the
variety under usage (x). Then the new word is followed by a second copy of
the consonant of the variety (x) , the syllable "?r" , a third copy of the
same consonant (x), the fragment "?ll?" and the substituted consonant (that
of the word), that is "C" . Thus, the final encoding strategy shows the
fragment: x...x?rx?ll?C.
For instance, the word "mat" (die) is encoded in one variety of the
x...x?rx?ll?C family as "sat s?rs?ll?m" and as "wat w?rw?ll?m" in another
one. In the x?Ca category, a consonant of the word is substituted by the
consonant of the variety under usage (x). Then the new word is followed by
the substituted consonant (that of the word, "C") and the vowel "a". For
instance, the word "ktab" (a book) is encoded in one variety of the x?Ca
type as "stab ka" and as "wtab ka" in another one. In the x??aCi family, a
consonant of the word is changed by the consonant of the variety under
usage (x). Then the newly created word is followed by the constant disguise
syllable "?a", the substituted consonant (that of the word, "C") and the
vowel "i". For example, the word "sarut" (a key) is secretised in one
variety of the x??aCi family as "warut ?asi" and as "karut ?asi" in another
one. The present book contains three parts, with each separately
investigating one family of the TSLs. This work addresses linguistic areas
of main concern to graduate and post-graduate students, linguists,
phonologists, morphologists, sociolinguists, Arabicists, and sociologists,
among others.
