In fact, a deep understanding of diglossia will help someone in learning Arabic. Therefore, researchers are interested in examining the concept of diglossia in Arabic. This research uses a qualitative approach. Data was obtained through literature review techniques with descriptive analysis. The data is in the form of formal Arabic and everyday language that is often used in Arab society.
