Klam is a research-based book project exploring the cultural and linguistic layers of Moroccan-Jewish language and expressions. Through proverbs, everyday phrases, and unique words, the project examines how language carries history, identity, humor, and social values across generations. Combining cultural research with contemporary editorial design, the book investigates the connection between language and the communities that shaped it.
