TI  - Living in Bab Tuma: Two Texts in Damascene Arabic
CY  - Heidelberg
AV  - public
PB  - Heidelberg University Publishing
N2  - Damascene Arabic belongs to the group of Syro-Palestinian dialects. The following presents two texts in this dialect that were recorded in 2008 in Damascus, and found a few years later among other recordings from Syria from that period. The author of the stories is Mays?? ?an??a, a Maronite Christian living in the district Bab Tuma in the Syrian capital. The texts presented here are unrelated to each other. The first of them tells of Palm Sunday, as well as Easter holidays in Damascus, while the second is a fairly loose story about spending time with her sick friend.
