wow I've never heard of a language like that in Algeria. I always assumed you all spoke a dialect of Arabic and some French.

Darja?? I'm gonna be reading about this for the next hour. merci!

    Darja is technically a dialect, even if (at least from my experience) it is barely intelligible to most people from saudi Arabia and such, I often end up speaking English in such cases.

    Darja is sorta like Scots in that way tbh, basically a sister language / dialect of Arabic in a similar way to what Scots is for English.
