Abstract

This study explores the role of the contemporary dialects of the tribes of Tihama Al-Hijaz, near Mecca, in preserving the linguistic heritage of Classical Arabic across generations. The dialects of the Fahm, Hudhayl, and Banu Kinanah tribes are noted for retaining features, sounds, and linguistic characteristics that are distinctly classical, manifested in unique expressions and vocabulary that reflect deeply rooted linguistic origins. The researcher employed a method of direct oral communication to gather observations and verify their authenticity. The study revealed Classical Arabic vocabulary still in use within linguistic contexts that reflect the culture and environmental and social conditions of these tribes. It also addressed grammatical phenomena, such as consonant stabilization and the use of adjacency in vowel shifting, which demonstrate the simplicity of the language and its adaptation to the tribes' way of life. The findings affirm that the dialects in this region are not merely colloquial but represent a living extension of Classical Arabic.
