Tifinagh


Tifinagh ( in Neo-Tifinagh, in Berber Latin alphabet, pronounced ) is an alphabetic script used by some Berbers to write their language. The original Tifinagh script (which has almost no vowels and a small number of letters) is used exclusively by the Tuareg, the only Berber people who have kept usage of the ancient Libyco-Berber script; it derives from an older script sometimes named the Libyan () or Libyco-Berber alphabet, used by speakers of Berber languages all across North Africa and possibly on the Canary Islands until the late Roman era.
