"Tuwat" as a dialect of the Riff cluster! What next, Siwi as a dialect of Chaoui, or perhaps of Japanese? Blench (2006) states upfront "This is a preliminary list... there are still many problems and I would be grateful for further additions and emendations." This is unambiguously one of those problems, but even if it weren't, a manuscript source with such self-declared issues, by a person whose specialty is neither Berber nor even Afroasiatic, is inappropriate except as a last resort. - Lameen Souag (talk) 19:02, 26 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Name problem

[edit]

Is there any evidence, outside of Wikipedia and its copies, of anyone else actually calling this language "Gurara"? None of the sources referenced do. - Lameen Souag (talk) 11:52, 3 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Lameen Souag, should the article be moved to Gourara language then? – Uanfala (talk) 19:49, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
Either that or Taznatit (it was previously at Taznatit language, I believe). Both are found in the handful of English-language sources that discuss it, unlike "Gurara language". - Lameen Souag (talk) 00:17, 1 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
Well, which of the two? Don't leave the choice in the hands of drive-by editors like me :) – Uanfala (talk) 01:15, 1 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
I guess I'd go for Taznatit language; it seems to be somewhat more frequent on Google Scholar than Gourara Berber. - Lameen Souag (talk) 22:04, 1 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
