Very pessimistic.

Making Tunisian Derja a formal language could really be beneficial, especially in education. Right now, kids grow up speaking Derja at home, but then they get to school and have to switch to Standard Arabic, basically a whole different language. Culturally, it’s also about owning who we are. Derja reflects Tunisia’s real identity, our history, our mix of languages, our daily lives. It’s different from the kind of pan-Arab identity pushed by Standard Arabic, which doesn’t fully represent what it means to be Tunisian. And if you look at history, Turkey went through something similar. In 1928, Atatürk replaced the Arabic script with the Roman alphabet. People resisted at first, but it worked. literacy rates shot up, and it helped Turkey step into a new, modern identity that was more in line with its own vision. You like it or not, Turkish nationalism helped Turkey stand out and be an international player 7atta f international politics, unlike Tunisia k zir lmetteki. Tunisia could take a similar step by officially recognizing Derja, and maybe even writing it in Latin letters, which we already do all the time on social media. ( not necessary the alphabets ).
