Keluarga bahasa Arab dibagi menjadi beberapa kategori: bahasa Arab Kuno, variasi-variasi sastra, dan bahasa daerah modern.^[1]

Posisi silsilah bahasa Arab di tengah rumpun bahasa Semit merupakan masalah sejak lama.^[2]

Pandangan mengenai klasifikasi bahasa Arab

Bahasa-bahasa Semit terbatas pada area geografis yang relatif sempit (Syam, Mesopotamia, dan gurun Arab) dan sering dituturkan di wilayah sekitarnya. Kontak permanen di antara para penutur bahasa-bahasa ini memungkinkan saling pinjam bahasa di antara mereka. Peminjaman bisa mengganggu sejarah proses perubahannya dan membuatnya sulit untuk menyusun kembali silsilah bahasa.^[3]

Dalam klasifikasi tradisional rumpun bahasa Semit, bahasa Arab berada dalam kelompok Semit Barat Daya, berdasarkan beberapa kemiripan dengan bahasa Arab Selatan Modern dan bahasa Ge'ez.^[4]

Klasifikasi tradisional rumpun bahasa Semit^[4]

Proto-Semit

Semit Barat

Semit Timur (Akkadia)

Semit Barat Laut

Rumpun bahasa Semit Barat Daya

Kanaan
(Ibrani, Fenisia)

Kebanyakan sarjana tidak menerima percabangan Semit Barat daya di atas karena tidak ada inovasi bahasa sama sekali yang mendukungnya dan karena kemiripannya dengan Arab Selatan dan Etiopia hanya disebabkan oleh difusi wilayah.^[1]

In 1976, linguist Robert Hetzron classified Arabic languages as a Central Semitic language:^[5]

The genealogy of the Semitic languages (Hetzron 1974, 1976)^[5]

Proto-Semitic

West Semitic

East Semitic (Akkadian)

Epigraphic South Arabian

Modern South Arabian

Arabic

Canaanite

John Huehnergard, Aaron D. Rubin, and other scholars suggested subsequent modifications to Hetzron's model:^[6]

Huehnergard & Pat-El's classification of Semitic languages^[6]

Proto-Semitic

West Semitic

East Semitic (Akkadian)

Arabic vernaculars
(inc. Levantine)

Classical Arabic and
Modern Standard Arabic

Safaitic

Dadanitic,
Taymanitic,
Hismaic, etc.

However, several scholars, such as Giovanni Garbini, consider that the historical–genetic interpretation is not a satisfactory way of representing the development of the Semitic languages (contrary to Indo-European languages, which spread over a wide area and were usually isolated from each other).^[7] Edward Ullendorff even thinks it is impossible to establish any genetic hierarchy between Semitic languages.^[5] These scholars prefer a purely typological–geographical approach without any claim to a historical derivation.^[8]

For instance, in Garbini's view, the Syrian Desert was the core area of the Semitic languages where innovations came from. This region had contacts between sedentary settlements—on the desert fringe—and nomads from the desert. Some nomads joined settlements, while some settlers became isolated nomads ("Bedouinisation"). According to Garbini, this constant alternation explains how innovations spread from Syria into other areas.^[9] Isolated nomads progressively spread southwards and reached South Arabia, where the South Arabian language was spoken. They established linguistic contacts back and forth between Syria and South Arabia and their languages. That is why Garbini considers that Arabic does not belong exclusively to either the Northwest Semitic languages (Aramaic, Phoenician, Hebrew, etc.) or the South Semitic languages (Modern South Arabian, Geʽez, etc.) but that it was affected by innovations in both groups.^[10]

There is still no consensus regarding the exact position of Arabic within Semitic languages. The only consensus among scholars is that Arabic varieties exhibit common features with both the South (South Arabian, Ethiopic) and the North (Canaanite, Aramaic) Semitic languages, and that it also contains unique innovations.^[10]

There is no consensus among scholars whether Arabic diglossia (between Classical Arabic, also called "Old Arabic" and Arabic vernaculars, also called "New Arabic" or "Neo-Arabic") was the result of the Islamic conquests and due to the influence of non-Arabic languages or whether it was already the natural state in 7th-century Arabia (which means that both types coexisted in the pre-Islamic period).^[11]^[12]^[13]
