Abstract
For almost a century, linguists have tried to explain why Ibero-Romance languages present loanwords with the Arabic article a-, al attached, whereas Italian, for example, does not. In the last decades, the thesis of berberised Arabic has been favoured, although it remains unclear how it worked. This article will determine the underlying linguistic mechanism for agglutination which finds a parallel in the way Berber languages treated Arabisms, with or without Arabic loanwords in Ibero-Romance necessarily depending on Berber influence.
