| '''Hiberno-Arabic''' or '''Albionian''', natively ''ail Albanaìje'', is a heavily Hibernized variety of spoken historical Arabic native to and official in the Dynjan island nation of Albion (''ail Alba'', in our timeline's Great Britain). Speakers may simply call the language ''teangatna'' [ˈt̪ʰʲæ̃ŋgʌt{{den}}ˠʰn{{den}}ˠʌ] 'our language'. The Dynjan British are mainly irreligious, though historically they were Muslims who converted to Catholicism. | | == Morphology == |

| Irish loanwords, called ''clèim Ȝagmìje'' (from Arabic ''{{ayin}}aǧamiyyah'' 'foreign' → 'Irish'), comprise over half of Hiberno-Arabic vocabulary. Besides Irish, Hiberno-Arabic has borrowed from French and Welsh. Some Irish vocabulary in Hiberno-Arabic, called ''Nua-Ȝagmìje'' 'neo-<i>Ȝagmìje</i>', are in fact coinages by speakers of Hiberno-Arabic. It is the only Dynjan Semitic language that evolved naturally under Celtic influence. Due to its conservatism, Hiberno-Arabic is also mutually intelligible with many Dynjan Neo-Arabic languages.
| | Some roots are bitonal: |
| | * ''qw'''x'''kw'''j''''' 'to stand' |
| | * ''qw'''s'''kw'''s''''' 'to go, to walk' |
| | * ''qw'''b'''kw'''x''''' 'to fly' |
| | === Nouns === |
| | The plural marker is ''-qoob'': ''mw'''b'''kw'''x''''' 'bird', ''mw'''b'''kw'''x'''qoob'' 'birds'. |

| The Irish vocabulary in Hiberno-Arabic reflects a fictional Middle Irish dialect which shows features of modern Munster Irish and our timeline's Scottish Gaelic; it was conservative in that broad dh (> Hiberno-Arabic /zʶ/) was kept distinct from broad gh (> Hiberno-Arabic /ʁ/). Broad coronals were strongly velarized, and /a:/ was backed to [ɑ:] after broad consonants, explaining why Irish broad ''s d g'' were heard as /sˁ tˁ⁼ q⁼/ by the Arabic speakers.
| | Noun phrases acting as constituents rather than as predicates need the determiner ''qw'': |

| The first surviving text in Hiberno-Arabic is dated to 1215.

| | : Qwbmwdqwg is easy. |
| | :''Qw'''b'''mw'''d'''qw'''g''' kwt. Qoo Kwskwskwskws kwt.'' |
| | : This is Qwbmwdqwg. And this is Quququqquq. |
