## What is Awar n Arif?

Awar n Arif teaches you Tamazight Tarifit — the Amazigh language of the Rif in northern Morocco. At home people say Tmazight; books write Tamazight. In English you will mostly find it as “Berber” — a word that goes back to “barbarian”, and not one we use ourselves. Not an off-the-shelf course, but put together by a native speaker, with the forms people actually use.

WHAT YOU GET
• Brand new or already know a little? Start from scratch or skip chapter 1 and the numbers
• 133 lessons across 26 chapters, each building on the last
• Over 1,300 words and forms — from family and market to nature and seasons
• Over 500 sentences — around 200 with word-for-word translation for focused learning
• Exercises: spot the meaning, match pairs, build sentences — over 400 sentence-building tasks
• 13 picture lessons: Ziri says the word, you point at it in the picture
• Help when you get stuck: 50:50 and reveal the answer — listening to words in lessons and the dictionary is always free
• XP, stars and a daily streak keep you going — and if you miss a day, you can save your streak

TALK WITH ZIRI
Nine full conversations: at the doctor, at the market, on the phone with Yemma, getting to know someone, making plans. Ziri asks, you choose your answer — and he reacts to it. In the answer trainer each level drops one aid, until you answer freely.

PRACTISE SPEAKING
Listen to a sentence, say it yourself, then play both back one after the other. Your recording stays on your device and is discarded after the exercise.

GRAMMAR — FINALLY UNDERSTAND WHY
47 cards: “X is Y” with the small d/t in between, the two brackets of negation (wa … ca and wa … bo), why relatives are always “my X”, when to say xmi and when mera. Most come with a quick self-check. Plus 38 reference tables with full conjugations.

THE TRANSLATION HELPER
Type a sentence in English, German, Dutch, Spanish or French and the app shows you how to say it in Tarifit. It works offline with the app's vocabulary: strongest with simple sentences. It also handles all persons, past, future, names and places.

YOUR OWN QUIZ
Mark the words that won't stick, and the app builds a round out of them.

THE CALCULATOR FOR THE SOUK
Dirham, frank or doro — the calculator turns it into one number you have in your head before you ask.

START FREE — PREMIUM WHEN YOU WANT MORE
Try it without an account: the first three chapters are free, along with the dictionary and 15 minutes of the translation helper with audio every day. If it suits you, Premium takes you further – as a subscription or a one-time purchase:
• All Tarifit lessons at once — and every future one
• Pick any lesson, any time
• All picture lessons, all conversations with Ziri and the answer trainer up to level 4
• Audio in the sentence list too: every sentence and most of the words in it one by one — one voice, a native speaker
• Sentence quiz with all sentences: build them from their blocks — starting with the ones you did not know
• The translation helper any time
• “Recently tricky”: your stumbling words marked in the dictionary, for focused review
• Completely ad-free, jokers without a video (each once a day)

REAL RECORDINGS
Over 1,500 recordings, all by the same person — a native speaker. One voice from the first lesson to the last, no changing speakers.

ORIGIN & SPELLING
Every word shows where it comes from — original Amazigh, Arabic or Spanish loanword, colour-coded. And you pick the spelling: official with ɣ ḥ c ḍ ǧ ɛ, or classic with gh 7 sh dh dj 3.

WHO IS IT FOR?
For everyone with Rif roots who wants to (re)learn their family's language — and for everyone connected to the Rif through a partner or a friend who finally wants to talk with the family.

App interface available in German, English, Spanish, Dutch, French and Darija.
