No footnotes date April 2009 Liwa is a chemical s and petroleum company in Liwa, United Arab Emirates . The company s headquarters is in Abu Dhabi . History Liwa first began operating as a petroleum company in 1939. Due in part to the area s large petroleum sources, the company was able to grow locally. By the 1950s, Liwa had become one of the leading companies in the United Arab Emirates. Liwa concentrated on the regional, Middle East petroleum market, however, which limited the company s international exposure. Mr. Salah Salem Al Shamsi , a well known businessman in the Middle East, opened Liwa Chem in the late 1990s, allowing Liwa to enter the chemicals industry. Liwa Chem helped the main Liwa company enter other, non petroleum related, business areas. In 2005, Liwa , along with United States American partner Occidental Petroleum , was able to win eight out of fifteen exploration areas in the long awaited EPSA 4 auction , making both Liwa and Occidental Petroleum two of the first international petroleum companies to be allowed to operate in Libya after the Libyan Embargo was lifted. Nevertheless, Liwa still remains a largely unknown company on an international scale.

Musical tradition in the Persian Gulf generally translated as Liwa , but more just under the designation leiwah , leywah lang ar or lewa depending on the transliteration employed. This musicale tradition is a type of dance performed in the Arab states of the Persian Gulf , mainly in communities which contain descendants of East African s from the Swahili Coast Tanzania and Zanzibar . It s also performed by the Baloch people Baloch of Pakistan s Makran Coast and Karachi , especially those of African descent see Sheedi . A large number of male participants arrange themselves into a circle, which is anchored by one or several drum players. A man paces in the middle of the group playing a simple reed instrument called mizmar or surnai , whose plaintive sharp sound reminds the listener of an oboe . The circle claps and dances in place, while individuals join a line which rhythmically paces around the inside of the circle. The Liwa is a more casual dance than the others, and can be performed with great spirit and banter from the young men who usually take part. The three backing drums for this dance are the shindo , the jabwah , and the jasser . More recently, a fourth drum known as the Peeper was added. Fact date May 2008 This drummer plays a dominant role, which gives him plenty of opportunity for a virtuoso performance. The mizmar has an oboe like sound and produces a haunting melody, which is lent particular poignancy by the eastern tonic scale to which it is tuned. Like the oboe, it is made in two pieces, with a double reed fitted into the second piece. The best instruments these days are made of African hardwood in Mombassa and Dar Es Salaam . Their cost can be as high as 2,000. The Liwa begins with a mizmar solo of about six minutes in slow tempo. The drums join in, followed ...

unreferenced date December 2008 Jijel Arabic is a dialect of Arabic language Arabic spoken specifically in the Jijel Province in northeastern Algeria , but traces of it reach parts of the neighboring provinces of Skikda and Mila . It is quite different from all the other Arabic dialects spoken in eastern Algeria and has probably survived into present times because of the geographic enclavement of that mountainous area and the difficulty of terrestrial connections with the rest of the country for centuries. It is a relic of the pre Banu Hilal Hilalian Arabic dialects resulting from the first Arabic invasion in the 7th and 8th centuries that were once spoken in all the north of Constantine but which were later replaced by Hilalian Bedouin Arabic that was brought by the second wave of Arab invasions during the 11th century. Pre Hilalian Arabic dialects remained intact only in a small area around Jijel while they were heavily mixed with bedouin dialects in the areas of Constantine, Algeria Constantine , Mila , Collo and El Milia . These pre Hilalian Arabic dialects have survived also in the Algerian region of Tlemcen as well as in northern Morocco and to this day Northern Moroccan Arabic, Tlemcen Arabic, and Jijel Arabic are still very close to one another.

Baghdad Arabic or the Baghdadi Arabic is the Arabic Varieties of Arabic variety spoken in Baghdad , the capital of Iraq . During the last century, Baghdad Arabic has become the lingua franca of Iraq, and the language of commerce and education. It is a subvariety of Iraqi Arabic . An interesting sociolinguistic feature of Baghdad is the existence of three distinct dialects Muslim, Baghdad Arabic Jewish Jewish and Christian Baghdadi Arabic. Muslim Baghdadi belongs to a group called gilit dialects, while Jewish Baghdadi as well as Christian Baghdadi belongs to qeltu dialects. Baghdadi gilit Arabic, which is considered the standard Baghdadi Arabic, shares many features with Gulf Arabic and with varieties spoken in some parts of eastern Syria . Gilit Arabic is of Bedouin provenance, unlike Christian and Jewish Baghdadi, which is believed to be descendant of Medieval Iraqi Arabic . Until the 1950s Baghdad Arabic contained a large inventory of borrowings from English language English , Turkish language Turkish , Persian language Persian or Kurdish language . During the first decades of the 20th century, when the population of Baghdad was less than a million, some inner city quarters had their own distinctive speech characteristics, maintained for generations. From about the 1960s, with the population movement within the city, and the influx of large numbers of people hailing mainly from the south, Baghdad Arabic has become more standardized, and has come to incorporate some rural and Bedouin features. Distinct features of Muslim Baghdadi Arabic is the use of ani as opposed to the fusha ana meaning I am . Also, they add ich when directing females ani gilitlich meaning I told you whereas maslawi s would say ana qiltolki . See also Baghdad Arabic Jewish Maslawi References Kees Versteegh, et al.
