    The most beautiful thing is that all these different words are mostly synonyms or variations from Arabic origin, but each region has its own common words for each meaning. That why all Arabs still understand each other, even if they speak differently.

    Not really, in what today is called Syria, there were a lot of languages in Classic and Ancient times, just to mention a few: Akkadian, Assyrian, Aramaic, Hurrian. In Ancient Palestine: Aramaic, Hebrew, Arabic.

    @@5Gazto You're wrong. Even though some of these ancient languages had enriching effect on the Classic Arabic, they're all almost dead now, since no one now speaks any of them exclusively. However some words of them are used in some regional colloquial Arabic, that doesn't cancel that most (not all) of differences between Arabic dialects are variations of derivations of the Classic Arabic itself, which is obvious to any one with a little education or knowledge in Arabic lexicology.

    @@5Gazto all what you have mentionned as languages first they are semetic languages and share with arabic the alphabet the root system and many roots so when you find some similar words that is just natural they used to be one language, second they are all dead except of Hebrew which was revived through the German Yiddish but was modified from the original hebrew and there is Aramaic which is almost dead but still little bit spoken in some few villages in Syria and North of Iraq or found in ancient Christian documents, Akkadian evolved into Assyrian and Babylonian and finally they were taken down by Aramaic a long time ago when the Assyrian empire integrated all of the Levant and underwent a demographic changes which estranged Assyrian language which was the elite language and the religion language but not the people language, Aramaic later lost it to Greek, and when the Arabs took over Syria and Iraq the original languages of the levant and mesopotamia were almost lost to Greek and Persian.

    The Iraqi dialect has a lot of Turkish and some Persian influence for obvious geographical reasons. Iraq was part of the Ottoman Empire until 1919 when it was ceded to Great Britain p. WWI, so a mere century old as “Iraq” and to this day no one has a credible or concrete evidence as to why is called iraq! Some suggest or‏ hypothesize from the old “Uruk” of ancient times, but nothing set in stone. Hugely different accents/dialects within mere kilometers. ‏سلام للجميع اخواننا العرب مهما كان مسكنهم Peace ✌️ to all !
