North Levantine Arabic (Arabic: اللهجة الشامية الشمالية, romanized: al-lahja š-šāmiyya š-šamāliyya, North Levantine: el-lahje š-šāmiyye š-šmāliyye) was defined in the ISO 639-3 international standard for language codes as a distinct Arabic variety, under the apc code. It is also known as Syro-Lebanese Arabic,[1] though that term is also used to mean all of Levantine Arabic.[2]
It was reported by Ethnologue as stemming from the north in Turkey (specifically the coastal regions of the Adana, Hatay, and Mersin provinces)[1][3] to Lebanon,[4][1] passing through the Mediterranean coastal regions of Syria (the Latakia and Tartus governorates) as well as the areas surrounding Aleppo and Damascus.[1][5]
In 2023, South Levantine Arabic and North Levantine Arabic were merged into a single Levantine Arabic in the ISO,[6] based on the high mutual intelligibility between Arabic varieties spoken by sedentary populations across the Levant and the lack of clear distinctions between variants along national borders.[7]
