Abstract

Abstract This note offers some lexical data in vernacular/semi-vernacular Arabic collected in three texts written by the following North-African authors : Ibn al-Dabbāġ al-Qayrawānī (dead in 696/1296 or 699/1300), Ibn al-Ṣabbāġ al-Ḥimyarī (dead after 733/1333) and ʿAlī b. Maymūn al-Ġumārī (dead in 917/1511). It is intended to remind the historian and the linguist of the interest there would be in examining the material in dialectal Arabic from Tunisia between the second half of the 7th/13th century and the beginning of the 10th/16th century in order to contribute, among other questions, to the development of a social history of linguistic uses. The lexical material is presented in Arabic script.
