Questions

How many Arabic-speaking translators are there in Spain?
We list 28, in 9 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Madrid, with 13 of the 28.
Is Arabic unusual for translators in Spain?
1% of the 1887 translators we hold in Spain are recorded as working in Arabic. A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, so the figure reflects who publishes lists, not only who speaks what.
