Rests of the 'haquitía' in the idiolect of Juanita Narboni
Abstract
The focus of the present article is the analyses of the words and expressions of the tangerine haquitía in the idiolect of the protagonist of The Wretched Life of Juanita Narboni. The major part of these loan words and expressions have their origin in Moroccan Arabic, while the rest came from Hebrew, Old Castilian, Portuguese and Western Andalusian. We assume that the author of the novel, Ángel Vázquez (Tangier, 1929), must have heard this linguistic variant spoken by members of the Jewish community of Tangier during his childhood years and before he left this city in 1965.
