Gulf Arabic is a variety of the Arabic language spoken in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and parts of Oman. It features distinct pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar that set it apart from other Arabic dialects. This dialect is influenced by the region's history, trade, and cultural exchanges. While it shares similarities with Modern Standard Arabic, Gulf Arabic is primarily used in everyday conversation and informal settings, making it an essential part of the local identity and culture in the Gulf region.
