Judeo-Yemeni Arabic (also known as Judeo-Yemeni, Yemenite Judeo-Arabic) is a variety of Arabic spoken by Jews living or formerly living in Yemen. 98% of all speakers now live in Israel. The language is quite different from the non-Jewish Arabic spoken in Yemen. The language may be split into the subdialects of San`a, `Aden, Be:da, and Habban.[1]
