BTW:
The Amazigh language, known as Tamazight, became an official language in 2011. Having been preserved in Amazigh enclaves, it is spoken by roughly one-third of the people. Many Imazighen also speak Arabic, and Tamazight is taught in schools. French is an important secondary language, and Spanish is widely spoken.
Major Berber languages include Tashelhit (Tashelhiyt, Tashelhait, Shilha), Tarifit, Kabyle, Tamazight, and Tamahaq. The family may also include extinct languages such as the Guanche languages of the Canary Islands, Old Libyan (Numidian), and Old Mauretanian, which are known from inscriptions but have not yet been studied thoroughly enough to make any affirmative generalizations about their linguistic characteristics. Another possible member is the language called Iberian, after whose speakers the Iberian Peninsula is named. An old consonantal alphabet (tifinagh) has survived among the Tuareg. It relates to the early Libyan inscriptions and the Phoenician quasi-alphabet.
Morphology And Grammar
Like many other Afro-Asiatic languages, Berber languages are characterized by a root and pattern system of morphology. In a root and pattern system, the basic lexical meaning of the word is manifested in the consonants alone; this consonantal skeleton is the “root.” The sequence of vowels interspersed among the consonants (the “pattern”) adds grammatical information and may modify the basic lexical meaning of the root. Patterns are sometimes combined with prefixes or suffixes. While the root and pattern system is operative in the Berber family, it is less regularized there than in the Semitic languages.
