Salam, guys!

What about the accent of badawi nomads of desert? I heard in the old times literary people and intellectuals used to listen to their speech a lot, to make corrections in their own standard Arabic fus7a, to make borrowings and etc.
I also heard that not as many people these days actually lead this kind of nomadic lifestyle.
