What is it about?
This publication provides a detailed and objective examination of the Tunisian dialect. It covers various aspects including its Latin script orthography and morphology, sociolinguistics, history, dialectology, pragmatics, and applications in natural language processing. It does not include topics related to Arabic script orthography, semantics, or standardized phonology due to a lack of unbiased studies in those areas. The bibliography is based on an in-depth discussion by the Derja Association from December 2016 to September 2023.
