Hi everyone.
Recently I made the mistake of having the first five mini-stories translated into Thai without first checking if they were already done.
I did it again! But this time, I think it’s highly unlikely that these mini-stories have already been made… (It would honestly surprise me)
Berber languages aren’t studied a lot, and even if you do find the rare 19th century dictionary or a half-finished app in the appstore, it’s almost always for Rifain, a Berber dialect spoken in Morocco.
I’ve always wanted to learn Kabyle - The Berber of Kabylie in Algeria. It’s a language of over 7 million speakers. So when I stumbled upon an extremely good offer on fiverr, I decided to have five mini stories translated!
I had the stories translated in both the Latin script and the Tifinagh script, which was the original script in which the Berber language was written some 2500 years ago.
I know that this is probably quite a niche language, but since the translations are based on the mini-stories, I figured that i might as well share them here so, perhaps one day, Kabyle can be a beta-language with LingQ
