Tunisian Arabic in a voice-over brief

Tunisian Arabic, known as Derja, belongs to the Maghrebi group and includes many words from French, Italian and Berber languages. It differs enough from Eastern Arabic that listeners in Egypt or the Gulf may not follow it at speed. Derja is mostly spoken rather than written, so a script is usually adapted from the standard form. A brief names the audience, whether the register is conversational and how French words are handled.

Accent and direction notes

What our director listens for in a Tunisian Arabic session.

Distinct sound
Derja differs from both Eastern and Moroccan Arabic.
Borrowed words
French and Italian words appear in daily speech.
Spoken style
Scripts are written to be spoken.

What casting decides in Tunisian Arabic

Derja or MSA
Ads use Derja; formal content uses MSA.
Arabic and French
Many projects need both.

How we work

Casting
We shortlist voices for your language, audience and tone, and explain the difference between them. You choose, and approve a written quote.
Direction
A director runs the session against your brief: meaning, pace and every agreed pronunciation. You can listen in remotely.
Delivery
Every file is checked against the script word by word and technically, then delivered in your format and naming.
