this is a video that will teach you the berber (amazigh) alphabet… inshallah it will be useful for you… it was for me…
but i am not sure on one thing, do all berbers use the same alphabet… check it out and tell me…
this one is good too but not that clear as there is some sort of watermark message riiight in the middle of the screen but still it is quite a handy vid…
Your welcome! [q]Today, standard is left-to-right. But earlier also right-to-left was common. In ancient inscriptions one saw both bottom-to-top and top-to-bottom. For right-to-left writing, the glyphs are reflected in a vertical axis. For vertical writing, they are rotated.[/q] That’s the first one I found again.
Sorry, i’m really really ignorant about all of this XD
Can you tell me the difference between tifinagh and tachelhit?
Thank you so much for patience XD
Recently the government of Morocco adapted Tifinagh as the “official” alphabet to write Berber languages in Morocco that up to this point did not have a writing system or were written in either Arabic or Latin alphabets. Signs were added to the traditional Tifinagh to denote vowels as well as sounds not found in the original alphabet. This new system is called Neo-Tifinagh, and it is Tamazight, Tachelhit, Kabyle
So it’s simply the tachelhit alphabet,right?
nobody i know who is berber and from the countryside can read or write at all…just some of the men can do very basic stuff…they say it’s a spoken language not a written one and they can’t read it at all…
