The small Latin labels are reading aids. c = sh, j = the sound in pleasure, x = kh, ɣ = gh. Dots in ḍ, ṛ, ṣ, ṭ and ẓ distinguish emphatic sounds. In ⴳⵯ and ⴽⵯ, ⵯ marks lip rounding.
02 / WRITE
A small word. A first step.
Try an example, or select letters above and add them to your pad.
Use the letter keys below the pad, or “Add to my writing” in the letter spotlight. You can also type or paste. This pad does not translate or convert Latin spelling. Your writing is not saved or sent to Agraw.

Begin with the alphabet, then see what you recognise.
04 / GO FURTHER
An alphabet opens a door.
This introduction follows Tifinaghe-IRCAM. Amazigh has diverse regional varieties, and Tuareg and other Tifinagh traditions use different letter sets. Learning these letters is a first step towards reading; vocabulary, spelling and pronunciation grow with practice.
An independent Agraw learning page based on IRCAM references, not an official IRCAM course. Letter names and order follow its alphabet table; English sound hints are introductory explanations.
