entre hier et aujourd’hui

Abstract

This article surveys Morocco’s multilingual landscape, emphasizing the cohabitation of national varieties (Moroccan Arabic, Classical/Standard Arabic, and Amazigh) with foreign languages, chiefly French and Spanish. It revisits the legacy of the Protectorate, the continued presence of French after independence, and the sociolinguistic effects of language contact (borrowing, prestige, power relations). The discussion highlights a hybrid configuration shaped by differentiated uses across social spaces and registers (schooling, media, administration, everyday interaction), and it questions both the diglossic tension between Moroccan Arabic and Classical Arabic and the evolving institutional status of Amazigh in current language policies.
