A person who loves, admires, or is passionate about Arab culture, language, or people.
From Arabic plus the suffix -phile (from Greek philo-, meaning 'lover of'). A 19th-century term created to parallel words like Francophile and Anglophile.
Arabophils range from scholars to travelers to poets—T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) was perhaps history's most famous arabophil, caught between British loyalty and love for the Arab world!
