Harry Stroomer (2011) Enhanced Tashelhiyt Berber Dictionary Prototype.
Tachelhiyt Berber, spoken in the south of Morocco, is the world's largest Berber language in terms number of speakers which is estimated at 10 million. However, this language has no adequate dictionary. The Tashelhiyt Berber dictionary seeks to fill that lacuna. The dictionary is based on lexical material on this language that Harry Stroomer has collected over more than 20 years.
This application is a Prototype of an Enhanced Dictionary which seeks to expand the lexical data with supplementary media in form of pictures, texts, articles and other media.
