thread_title:  Edit change for Rashaida 

message: Discussion with  regarding Rashaida's diaelect, whether it's a subdialect of Najdi Arabic or Hejazi Arabic.
I've cited Ingham's Najdi Arabic, which includes the Rashaida when discussing NA-speaking bedouin tribes. There's no reputable source I could find that points to them speaking Hejazi Arabic.
The citations that  are circular. The firsthttps://profilbaru.com/article/Arabization is a copy of English wikipedia, and the secondhttps://www.amazon.com.br/Rashaida-People-Lambert-M-Surhone/dp/6134458465 is a link to a book on Amazon.
All in all, it seems to me that there's confusion over what "Najdi Arabic" is. The Hejaz traditionally has two dialect groups: urban and bedouin. Ingham includes in his definition of NA dialects that other linguists describe as "Bedouin Hejazi", such as the dialects of Harb and Otaibah. The term "Hejazi Arabic" usually refers to the urban dialects, such as in Jeddah, Mecca, and Medina. The Bedouin dialects in Hejaz, like most bedouin dialects across Saudi Arabia, are much closer to the dialects of Najd than to the dialects of Mecca or Jeddah.

replies: text: Your Source was inaccessible you just sent a blue link with a number and I had to find the Wikipedia article myself even though I acouldmt access the book. The first source I sent wasn't a Wikipedia article it was a different article. The second source of the book on Amazon is a Author who knows what they are talking about and they met real Rashaida people. Just because Najdi Arabic has Bedioun dialects doesn't mean that the Rashaida are originated from the Najd. Their ancestral homeland is the Hejaz, and other sources state that they speak Hejazi Arabic. Cookiemonster1618 (talk) 12:07, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: I still provided a valuable and accurate soruce and a book with the author who's actually been to Eastern Sudan and met them. Even the map of Arabic dialects will list Rashaida as a dialect of Hejazi Arabic. Cookiemonster1618 (talk) 16:30, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
