		Arabic is a literary language fully on a par with Latin or Greek, and Arabic scholars fully analyzed the structure of their own language, not always in the same way that Western grammarians analyze languages.
		These languages are characterized by the use of three-letter roots that are modified in many ways to form words.

	Eastern Jebel languages - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Eastern Jebel languages are a small subfamily belonging to the Eastern Sudanic subgroup of Nilo-Saharan.
		They are spoken in the hills of An Nil al Azraq province in eastern Sudan (the name "Jebel" is simply Arabic for "mountain".) The group consists of Gaam (also called "Ingassana" or "Tabi"), Aka (Silak), Kelo (Tornasi), and Molo (Malkan).
		Gaam was believed to be the only member of this group until more information about Aka, Kelo, and Molo was obtained by Bender; the latter three languages have been significantly influenced by Berta.

		The book shows that Jebel Hafit, which rises to just over 1000 metres above sea level, is one of the most important places in the United Arab Emirates in terms of the diversity of its plants and wildlife, as well as being a key site in terms of the country's archaeological heritage.
		The importance of these sites to the cultural and scientific heritage of the UAE lies in the fact that that they are the only locations in Arabia where the remains of fossil animals and plants have been recovered that are of international significance.
