Of the languages of Tunisia, Arabic is the sole official language according to the Tunisian Constitution.[1]
The vast majority of the population today speaks Tunisian Arabic as their native language, which is mutually intelligible to a limited degree with other Maghrebi Arabic dialects. Most inhabitants are also literate in Modern Standard Arabic (literary Arabic), which is taught at the primary and secondary education levels. A significant portion of the population can speak French to varying degrees, as French was the common language of business and administration during French rule in the region.
Eastern Berber languages are still spoken by some Tunisian minority groups (few thousands), but nowadays they use arabic as the first language.[citation needed]
