I remember mention of various studies of Jibali whilst I was living in =
Oman (over ten years ago). May I suggest that anyone interested in =
Jibali contacts the Wali's Office in Salalah and the Ministries of =
Information and Education.

A quick glance at Oman' s 1996 Statistical Yearbook (published=20
in August 1997) and at the 1993 General Census of Population,=20
Housing and establishments seems to indicate that there are=20
no statistics on languages at all.=20

Both publications are published by the Ministry of Development=20
which incorporates Oman's statistical agency. Information on these=20
and other publications is avaiable from the Ministry's website at=20
http://www.modevelop.com

The 1996 statistical yearbook gives Dhofar's total population as=20
222,000 of which 77,830 are not Omani nationals (p. 48).=20

I suggest you contact other researchers working on the MSA such=20
as Dr. Werner Arnold (formerly at Heidelberg, but left for another=20
German university) and Dr. H.J. Stroomer, Rijksuniversiteit Leiden,
vakgroep Talen en Culturen van het Ismamitische Midden-Oosten,
Postbus 9515, 2300 RA Leiden, Fax +31-71-5272038.=20

I also suggest you send details on your research for the webpage=20
