The International Association of Arabic Dialectology (French: Association Internationale de Dialectologie Arabe, AIDA– International Association of Arabic Dialectology / الرابطة الدولية لدراسة اللهجات العربية) is an association of researchers in Arabic dialects, from all over the world.
About AIDA
[edit]AIDA was founded in 1992, in Paris, at the initiative of a group of prestigious Arabists, with the aim to encourage and promote the study of Arabic dialects.[1][2][3]
AIDA is nowadays the leading international association in this field of research and it has become a center that joins scholars from all over the world who are interested in any aspect of Arabic dialectology, including dialects which have not been described yet, dialectal geography, specific aspects of phonology, morphology and syntax, code-switching, koiné language, pidgin, creole, the lexicon of Arabic dialects, dialectal atlases, comparative and diachronic studies, sociolinguistics, teaching of Arabic dialects, and so on.[4]
AIDA organizes conferences that are held in well-known universities every two years (with some exceptions).[5]
