Language
Arabic is the most widely language spoken by the Moroccan population. French is also commonly spoken amongst the Moroccans and therefore can also be used comfortably when traveling Morocco.
English on the other hand is not widely spoken in Morocco. Tourist locations will have more English speaking staff but knowing a few Arabic words, especially if you are not familiar in French, will go a long way.

Best time to visit
Morocco has pretty delightful weather all year around, especially for those who like the warmth.
Tourist Hack
Haggle, haggle and haggle again. On any item without a price tag you can guarantee you will automatically be quoted an excess 50-100% or even more compared to locals. If buying from souks, spend time checking different price options with different sellers and see what they drop to as you begin to walk away. This will help get a feel for how much you can haggle the item you are after without offending the seller.
