A Descriptive and Comparative Grammar of Andalusi Arabic

Built on the scarce, but not insignificant surviving materials of Andalusi Arabic, this work provides a synchronic descriptive survey as complete as possible of its basic grammar and lexicon, plus some diachronic comparative remarks, allowing the reader to obtain a near accurate picture of this subject-matter.
