What are the 3 types of Arabic?

The Arabic language is classified into three different forms: Classical Arabic, Modern Standard Arabic, and Dialectal (Colloquial) Arabic.

Perhaps it is funny to know that in Arabic there is no difference between classical Arabic and Modern Standard Arabic (MSA). 

Which country speaks classical Arabic?

However, there are around 25 Arab-speaking countries that claim Arabic as an official or co-official language including Chad, Algeria, Djibouti, Egypt, Morocco, Oman, Jordan… 

 

Arabic. A major Semitic language originating from the Arabian peninsula, and now spoken natively (in various spoken dialects, all sharing a single highly conservative standardized literary form) throughout large sections of the Middle East and North Africa.

 

Arabic is a Semitic language, like Hebrew and Aramaic that first appeared in the mid-ninth century BMCE in Northern Arabia and Sahara southern Levant. Unlike the latter two, where the former derives from the other, however, Arabic is itself a root language, like Latin.
