summary

Scarce. The JNUL copy is incomplete lacking the title-page. The Ladino that was spoken in Tetuan and elsewhere in North Africa was called “Hakittia.” Similar to the Ladino used by the Jews of Turkey and Greece, but with a strong influence of the surrounding Arabic.

pp. (14). Few tears with various taped repairs. Original printed wrappers, loose. Sm. 4to.
