Best Answer

Most urban Moroccans speak French, but French is neither a national language of Morocco (which are Arabic and Tamazight) nor a language indigenous to Morocco. However, most foreigners prefer to use French since Moroccan Arabic or Derija Maghribiyya (as it is called locally) is almost unintelligible to Arabic speakers from other countries.
