Why the title? edit

No reference is given for the name "Tugurt", which does not correspond to any of the names used by any of the sources cited, nor by the more recent work of Amina Mettouchi (who calls it Tarighit[1]). The language hasn't been spoken in Touggourt itself for over a century, and for the placename, the spelling "Tugurt" is long obsolete in English and inaccurate for Berber (where it should rather be Tuggurt, with a double g). The Ethnologue's preferred choice, Temacine Tamazight, is preferable but still misleading insofar as Temacine is just one of the villages where it is spoken. I suggest renaming the article Tarighit language, following the most recent source, or Oued Righ language for compatibility with older sources. - Lameen Souag (talk) 15:57, 2 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
