Tifinagh abjad

Reference quoted with thanks from : http://www.omniglot.com/writing/tifinagh.htm

Origin
The Tifinagh or Tifinigh abjad is thought to have derived from the ancient Berber script. The name Tifinagh means 'the Phoenician letters', or possibly comes from the Greek word for writing tablet, 'pínaks '.

Since September 2003, the Tifinagh abjad has been taught in primary schools in Morocco. It is also used by the Tuareg, particularly the women, for private notes, love letters and in decoration. For public purposes, the Arabic alphabet is normally used.

Notable features
The Tifinagh abjad includes consonants only.
Some letters have more than one form.
Tifinagh is written without spaces between words.

Used by
Berber languages such as Tamasheq and Amazigh, are spoken by about one million or so people in Morocco, Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso, Algeria and Libya.
