Arabic language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (2704 words)
The Arabic language (Arabic: اللغة العربية‎ ​ translit: al-lughah al-‘Arabīyyah), or simply Arabic (Arabic: عربي‎ ​ translit: ‘Arabī), is the largest member of the Semitic branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family (classification: South Central Semitic) and is closely related to Hebrew and Aramaic.
Arabic has been a literary language since at least the 6th century and is the liturgical language of Islam.
Since the written Arabic of today differs from the written Arabic of the Qur'anic era, it has become customary in western scholarship and among non-Arab scholars of Arabic to refer to the language of the Qur'an as Classical Arabic and the modern language of the media and of formal speech as Modern Standard Arabic.
Gum arabic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (442 words)
Gum arabic, a natural gum also called gum acacia, is a substance that is taken from two sub-Saharan species of the acacia tree, Acacia senegal and Acacia seyal.
Gum arabic is a complex mixture of saccharides and glycoproteins, which gives it one of its most useful properties: it is perfectly edible.
Gum arabic is also used in witchcraft as a harder-wearing alternative to chalk in protective circles, and as an incense.
