Judeo-Iraqi Arabic (also known as Iraqi Judeo-Arabic, Arabi, Yahudic) is a variety of Arabic spoken by Jews living or formerly living in Iraq. 99% of all speakers now live in Israel. Speakers are older adults.[1]
The best known form is Jewish Baghdadi Arabic, though there were different dialects in Mosul and elsewhere.
