Tamaziɣt Tatrart - DICTIONNAIRE DES MOTS NOUVEAUX - TAMAZIGHT
HADDADOU Mohand Akli

This is one of the best modern Tamazight language dictionaries. It was authored by Dr. Mohand Akli Haddadou (who passed away just yesterday).

Tamazight-language contributors on Tatoeba might find this dictionary a valuable resource in their work on this website. I strongly recommend it to Amazigh speakers.

Tamazight/Berber:

The tagging of Uyezjen's sentences is essential to show which dialect of Tamazight/Berber they belong to. We would like tag all Berber sentences according to their respective dialects.

Can somebody do something in this regard?

Tamazight/Berber
Mass-tagging

Thanks Soliloquist:
How do I know when this problem has been solved to ask an admin to do the job for me?

I also think that in case this is solved, corpus maintainers should be given the right to do it. I will soon start proofreading thousands of sentences and I wouldn't like this to take me ages. This should also help admins since they would be less solicited for this kind of help.

Tamazight/Berber
Uyezjen's Mozabite sentences

Uyezjen, a Berber-speaking member who contributed sentences in the Mozabite dialect, has more than 4000 sentences. I need to tag them with the Tumẓabt-Mozabite tag:

https://tatoeba.org/eng/tags/sh..._with_tag/4817

Tagging them one by one would take a lot of time and with the slow connection I have, this would take ages. Is there a way to mass-tag all his sentences automatically?

I have had a look at the vocabulary items that need sentences and most of them are relatively rare words. It's quite hard even for a native speaker to make sentences with such words. Such words are sometimes rare even in the largest online corpora.

Tamaziɣt/Berber

SInce there is already an astronomy club (Sirius Association) in Bejaia, we have decided to translate all sentence related to astronomy into Tamazigh/Berber. We have already informed them about our scientific activity and they will find the Amazigh astronomy corpus useful.

Mr Belarhzali (a math teacher) together with the contributor Warwari (artist and technician) will translate all math-related sentences. Our bibliographical resources are in bilingual TAMAZIGHT-French dictionaries:

LEXIQUE DE MATHEMATIQUES - TAFSUT, (Tamazight-Français)

Lexique Berbère Moderne ( Tamazight - Français )
Edition corrigée et augmentée pour le compte du HCA
par Habib Allah MANSOURI
Français /Tamaziɣt

Dictionnaire d'électrotechnique français-tamazight (Mohand Mahrazi)

These are some of the technical lexicons and dictionaries published in the Tamazight/Berber language.

Trang,

What I suggest here is that we keep the status quo regarding "ber". The language has just been recognized official (Algerian constitutional amendment of 2016) and an academy is on the way. This is why I'd suggest that it would be wiser and more correct to keep the status quo.

Uyezjen's sentences will remain under the "ber" banner.

They are in the Mozabite Amazigh dialect:
https://tatoeba.org/eng/sentenc...er/Uyezjen/ber

These sentences are in Tuareg (thv) and will obviously remain under the "ber" banner, too:
https://tatoeba.org/eng/tags/sh..._with_tag/9865

We're not building a Tamazight corpus to be dismantled later.

CK,

You know what kind of controversy this could start.

Tamazight - Mozabite
Aissimahfoud06

Regarding Mozabite, a couple of Tatoeba members have already contributed 4000 sentences in that Amazigh dialect and here is part of the Mozabite corpus:

https://tatoeba.org/eng/sentenc...er/Uyezjen/ber

I also have my own corpus of Mozabite that I'll be adding in the coming days. As you can see, I have been very busy behind the scenes, documenting Amazigh dialects in the last 6 years :-)
