Rif languages

Rif languages

According to the Ethnologue, the Rif languages are a genetic subgroup of the Zenati languages including two languages and dialects spoken in the Rif area of Morocco. Other sources regard Senhaja de Srair as non-Zenati, and thus see "Rif languages" as an areal rather than genetic grouping:

*Senhaja De Srair language
*Tarifit language
