Should be colored on the map.

Editorial Action

We will send this information to the cartographers since it is a question about the map for Tunisian Spoken Arabic [aeb]. Any changes made will be included in the next edition of the Ethnologue.

Dear Antoine,

Djerba is actually a dialect of Shilha (Nafusi) [jbn], a Berber language, in Tunisia and Libya.

This language is on both maps, the static map (https://www.ethnologue.com/map/DZMATN), listed as "Shilha", and on the interactive map (https://www.ethnologue.com/language/jbn/map).

Best regards,

Chuck Fennig

OK but the issue is that Tunisian Arabic is also spoken on Djerba and should be colored on the Tunisian Arabic map: https://www.ethnologue.com/language/aeb/map

Okay, I understand. I will send this on to the cartographers for their consideration.

Chuck
