The corpus we analyze for this study is the story of the aforementioned Pakistani worker, recounted in this variety of Pidgin Arabic. The morphosyntactic features identified in the text sample confirm that it is a language system developed as the result of contact with Arabic. However, it also shows that there are phonetic, lexical, as well as morphosyntactic features that have developed internally so that this pidgin could be successfully used by its speakers for the communication of not only their immediate needs, but also many more intricate concepts.
This study is an investigative approach, highlighting some linguistic features, on the autobiographical speech of a Pakistani worker, in a pidgin used in the Gulf countries, consisting of Arabic and Urdu elements (here Urdu is used as a reference, because, in addition to Urdu, elements appear in other languages spoken in the Indian subcontinent, such as Hindi, Punjabi, etc. This lingua franca has attracted the attention of many linguists - especially after 1990 - who have dedicated detailed studies to it, and from all of these, we have focused only on a few that were the starting point in our analysis: Smart(1990), Næss (2008), Al-Moaily (2013), Alghamdi (2014), Avram (2014), Bakir (2014),Abed (2018), Alshammari (2018). In the aforementioned studies, the names under which this pidgin is designated vary from Gulf Pidgin, Gulf Pidgin Arabic, Hindi Arabic, to Urdubic. The latter term, Urdubic, (composed by juxtaposing the syllable -bic from Arabic to the word Urdu, a plastic name anchored in the linguistic reality of that pidgin)was also picked up by us for the present study. Hussain et
alii (2020), based on Smart‘s (1990) study, present a definition of this
lingua franca used by immigrant workers in the Indian subcontinent in their daily
communication with Arab employers: ―This lingua franca is used by a constant
changing force of temporary immigrant workers in everyday communication with their Arab masters. The words constantly changing are significant and refer to the temporary stay of workers in the region. This constantly changing force includes doctors, engineers, teachers, laborers, technicians, drivers, waiters, maids, cooks, cleaners, sweepers, gardeners, salespersons, barbers, and others. Though this lingua franca came to the fore with the oil boom, the traces of its latent existence can be noticed even before the discovery of oil.‖ (Hussain et alii2020: 225). It was the previous statement "the words constantly changing" that gave us the idea to present a case study, therefore, a study focused on a concrete realization of this pidgin.

voyager of Islam”, stopped during his riḥla in the town of Mardin, in southeastern Turkey. The traveler wrote
about his visit to this town, describing the people living there and their customs and appearance, as well as the
surrounding areas of Mardin during that time. He also provided descriptions of the rulers of the area, which,
together with the other details of his visit, helped produce a reference document of paramount anthropologic,
sociolinguistic and historical importance of the entire area.
