After centuries of neglect that has almost led to its loss, the Berber language in Tunisia is revived through this long-awaited linguistic description. This book outlines some of the linguistic features of Berber with a particular emphasis on the Berber variety spoken in Douiret (southern Tunisia). It sheds some light on some linguistic intricacies of this lesser-known Berber variety and establishes a solid foundation on which future research will be established.
