In one of the links I posted it said you can right it anyway. So not only left to right, but also right to left and also top to bottom etc. ---

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. ---

So, i’ve found this: [http://www.ancientscripts.com/tifinagh.html](http://www.ancientscripts.com/tifinagh.html) 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? 🙂 ---

Oh, another question, but to write in tachelhit i have to write from right to left or not? 🙂 ---

i think tifinagh is the alphabet that is used and tachelhit is a dialect of amazigh ---

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… ---

i think it’s coz they only started teaching it to kids in written form just recently, in schools they didn’t have it back then i assume
