Shenwa Language
Shenwa, also spelled Chenoua (autonym HaqbaylitÌ ), is the Berber language of Jebel Chenoua in Algeria, just west of Algiers in the provinces of Tipasa (incl Cherchell) and Chlef. The speech of Jebel Chenoua proper is mutually comprehensible with that of the nearby Beni Menacer, and the two are thus treated as a single language. According to the Ethnologue (2009), Shenwa has 76,300 speakers.

Famous quotes containing the word language:
“Experiment is necessary in establishing an academy, but certain principles must apply to this business of art as to any other business which affects the artis tic sense of the community. Great art speaks a language which every intelligent person can understand. The people who call themselves modernists today speak a different language.”
—Robert Menzies (1894–1978)
