Writing System
Like other Berber languages, Riffian has been written with several different systems over the years.. Most recently (since 2003), Tifinagh has become official throughout Morocco. The Arabic script is not used anymore for writing Riffian Berber.. However, unlike the nearby Tashelhit (Shilha), Riffian Berber has little written literature before the twentieth century.

“You and I ... are convinced of the fact that if our Government in Washington and in a majority of the States should revert to the control of those who frankly put property ahead of human beings instead of working for human beings under a system of government which recognizes property, the nation as a whole would again be in a bad situation.”
