		Etymologically, it means "language of the free" or "of the noblemen." Traditionally, the term "tamazight" (in various forms: "thamazighth", "tamasheq", "tamajeq", "tamahaq") was used by many Berber groups to refer to the language they spoke, including the Middle Atlas, the Rif, Sened in Tunisia, and the Tuareg.
		The Berber languages have two cases of the noun, organized ergatively: one is unmarked, while the other serves for the subject of a transitive verb and the object of a preposition, among other contexts.
		Subclassification of the Berber languages is made difficult by their mutual closeness; Maarten Kossmann (1999) describes it as two dialect continua, Northern Berber and Tuareg, and a few peripheral languages, spoken in isolated pockets largely surrounded by Arabic, that fall outside these continua, namely Zenaga and the Libyan and Egyptian varieties.

	Dr. Madjid Alaoua: Tamazight dialects and the insertion of the Tamazight language in the educational system
		The Tamazight language, wherever it exists and is spoken, has systematically been denied institutionalization, and all claims of its recognition have been fiercely fought, and the authors of these claims treated as separatists.
		In fact, no language exists in which the written version corresponds fully to the spoken one, for simple reasons: the written language has a tendency to be conservative, which is not the case for the spoken language, which changes all the time.
		When for political reasons a language is held back and is forbidden any elevation to a language of instruction and education, this surely becomes handicapped and ceases then to bring forth necessary values to the construction of a democratic and egalitarian state.

	Rwais and Ahwash
		The Arabic language never came to replace Berber in the highlands, as it had in the plains.
		Yet inevitably, Arabic, as the language of religion and trade, has had a tremendous impact on the language and thought of the Ishlhin.
		Often the dictates of meter demand that an Arabic word be substituted for tashlhit; but the use of Arabic is also a result of the rwais' greater exposure to the language in their travels, and of their need to establish a poetic lingua franca to overcome local dialect differences in tashlhit.

		It is estimated that there are between 14 and 25 million speakers of Berber languages, but exact numbers are difficult to ascertain, since most Maghreb countries do not record language data in their censuses, and many people who speak these languages are hard-to-reach nomads.
		In addition, these languages go by different names in their respective language communities -- a factor that confuses the issue of whether these are dialects of one language or different languages.

	The Tamazight (Berber) language profile
		The question as to whether these languages started in Africa or the Middle East along with the Semitic languages is still controversial and goes beyond the field of linguistics since it involves archaeology, as well as pre-history and paleontology.
		Given the similarities, the possibility that the substrata of these languages are African with an important eastern influence from Semitic languages is the most plausible, although a western influence of Semitic languages from the African branch, namely Egyptian, is not to be excluded.
		Further south and west is the domain of another variety, referred to as Tachelhit, occupying the Anti-Atlas mountain area and the plains from Sous, stretching from Agadir down to Ifni on the western coast, going as far east as the Draa.

	MERCATOR :: Dossier 14: The Amazigh language within Morocco’s language policy
		For ideological reasons, the language policy that was implemented –the imposition of Arabic as the only official language– created a situation of imbalance in the status of the other languages and, therefore, there was a situation of diglossia.
		Thus, language policy in Morocco may be considered as the cause of the status imbalance of the Amazigh language, and it then seems to create the imbalance in its social use functions.
		In such circumstances, when different languages are in contact, the oral ones are usually treated in a pejorative and discriminative way, they are politically and socially disdained, as those who defend the use of classical Arabic have held and still hold political power and take part in all language policy processes.
