Abstract

This research falls within the issue of linguistic diglossia in contemporary Arabic, which is considered one of the main reasons for the delay in education and communication in the Arab world. The study addresses this issue from a specific angle: the linguistic duplicity between the pronunciation and facilitation of AL-Hamza. In this context, the research describes the Hamzah and traces its history, revealing that the linguistic diglossia between contemporary spoken Arabic and formal Arabic has ancient roots, stemming from the phonetic difficulty of the Hamzah. It was found that the facilitation observed in contemporary spoken Arabic is the same as the language of the urban centers of Hijaz, which is the language of the Quran that is considered as the center of the Arabic linguistic study. On the other hand, the pronunciation of Hamzah found in the formal language ascribes to the language of the Bedouins in the Arab desert. The research also explores the diglossia in Hamzah orthography, and a historical review reveals that the issue of its writing stems from this diglossia between the two languages. The study concludes by advocating for a strategic plan to transition the formal language from pronunciation to facilitation.
