Darija

Darija is a variety of Arabic unique to Moroccans even though people from neighboring Tunisia and Algeria can pick a few words because of the slight use of Arabic phrases. Standard Arabic is the official language in Morocco but Darija is a lingua franca that borrows words from Arabic, Berber languages, sub-Saharan languages, Turkish, French, Spanish, and Italian.
