Description
The Academy of the Arabic Language (Arabic: مجمع اللغة العربية بالقاهرة) was a language academy for Arabic created in Cairo, Egypt in 1932 by Fuad I of Egypt. It publishes Al-Mu'jam al-Kabir (The Great Dictionary) and Al-Mu'jam al-Wasīt (The Intermediary Dictionary), two of the most important dictionaries of the Arabic language.
One of the early tasks of the Academy of the Arabic Language in Cairo was to publish a historical dictionary of Arabic, tracing the changes of meanings and uses of Arabic words over time, though this was not achieved.
