I got interested in Tuareg culture(s) very recently, what a coincidence!

Yeah, they whole language family is interesting but I got to admit that the Tuareg braches are particularly curious. I guess for me, as a linguist, it's the fact that they borrowed significantly less vocab than other Amazigh varieties. Tuareg languages definitely need more study and some modern language learning materials.

I'd like to see more research done into the connection between Afroasiatic languages and Indo-European. There are obvious similarities between pronouns and number names, as well as hundreds of seemingly shared roots.

More research is always a good thing...especially regarding proto languages.

at 12:30 the Chaker 200 is a wordlist of basic vocabulary and the % refer to the loanwords from Arabic. Lameen Souag has done some great work also on loan words in Berber, check some of the work out 👍.

We need to visit Kabylia region in Algeria , one of the strongest Berber community ! Absolutely interesting ~

Thanks for your effort. It might be interesting to see some structural features (like a list of possesives) to judge how similar it is to arabic, like kitabi, kitabuki, kitabuke etc..

Great introduction to an undersung branch of Afroasiatic. Interesting how “Ghadamès” looks like a plausible phonetic evolution of “Garamantes,” a monumental culture which were neighbours to the Romans. Besides those, I think the original _Afri_ were an Amazigh tribe, as well, and it looks like that name could structurally be even a modern Amazigh ethnonym...

Garamantes it came from ighrman which means towns, ghadames was called by the Romans Caidamussi i think.

Riffian truly has become a creole language instead of Amazigh, more than 50% is not of Amazigh origin

That’s simply not true as the %41.7 of the loanwords found in the study are from the Arabic dialect spoken in parts of Morocco. This dialect in itself has Riffian and other Amazigh languages’ loanwords.
