Hogarth, David G. (April 1929). «The Arab World Today». Foreign Affairs(engelsk). ISSN0015-7120. Besøkt 23. april 2020. «HE Arab world is the world that speaks Arabic. Language is its one satisfactory test, and a much better one than the territorial. It is true that a continuous and fairly well defined area of the earth's surface contains all the Arabic-speaking peoples (except voluntary exiles living in Java, America, East Africa and other foreign regions); but the same area includes too many speakers of other tongues -- of Turkish, for example, or Kurdish or Armenian or Hebrew or Berber or some European language -- whose non-Arab speech invariably goes with lack of conscious community with Arabs and even with contempt or hostility.»
