Details of Tifinagh, one of the alphabets used to write AMAZIGH languages of Morocco
Tifinagh (in Neo-Tifinagh, Tifinaɣ in Berber AMAZIGH Latin alphabet, pronounced [tifinaɣ]) is an alphabetic script used by some Berbers to write their language. It is not in widespread use as a means of daily communication, but often serves to politically and symbolically assert a Berber AMAZIGH identity.

  • This is so interesting. Could you please tell me where in Marroco this language is spoken . Is there a specific region or is it spoken in the whole country ? Thank you.

  • it's Tamazight language one of oldest languages on earth ! yes ,75% of Moroccans speak 6 to 3 different Tamazigth languages !

  • This is nice. This is the first time I heard the Tamazght. It is very fascinating to me. :)

  • it's the first alphabets in the world

    (tifinagh= our inovation by Tamazight language)

    known as Libyan writing since Neolithic , but according to recent research it's writing too dating back to the Mesolithic (the oldest recorded writing so far is the one discovered last year in Atlas mountains in Morocco more than 11.000BC)

    with another discovery of ancient jewelry in the world 80.000BC

  • That is so cool. I love learning about this history. In college I took western civilization un 1700 and I loved it. That is cool that this is was used even before ancient Egypt. I may have some Amazigh blood in me. since I am european. I am Jewish also.

  • there is a relationship between Tifinagh and literature of ancient Egypt !

    in any way the ancient Egyptians are also BERBERS for example : Ramses II

    yes some Europeans share with Amazighs a same blood

  • @putinkaaa I agree,we need English subtitles,please !!

  • i have a question !!! if i have origins from spain.. particularly from andalucia this means i have moorish blood right ?? is it possible that i may have amazigh blood ? :) 

  • حتى التاريخ الذي درسناه مليء بالتناقضات و يبدأ بمجيء العرب الغزاة أما ما قبله فلم نكن شيئا من الدهر مذكورا

  • لا نريد التعريب كمثل المصريين الفراعنة فالعرب عربوكم ليكون عبيدا لهم أما الأمازيغ لن يتخلو عن هويتهم وثقافتهم.

  • tarikh ino yenayi 9a thamazight d awar n sokan n chamal afri9ya....ayuz aymazighen gham thamazight gham awar nrajdodd negh

  • Stupid in America

  • I like this.

    It's good these kids are learning their true history and not that they are arabs.

    Sammy did you go to school in france?

    That explains alot because in the U.S. they doin't teach this stuff.

    Our public schools are useless.I learned alot more teaching myself from books and the internet.

  • Very nice video ! Add2MyFavouritesNow! lol Merci samy.

  • IL FAUT RÉINSTAURER LE TIFINAGH ! :)

  • L'essentiel de la connaissance est livresque.

    Aussi, dans un second temps, il s'agit de favoriser les œuvres écrites en tamazight.
