Modern Standard Arabic, other Arabic varieties, French
All domains other than home
"The other languages are used for all domains apart from at home where the native speakers turn to Taznatit or to dialectal Arabic. Most aged people who use Taznatit use it for some domestic purposes such as gardening, camel rearing, and traditional craftsmanship. They use Taznatit within the home domain, or in the gardens, but seldom in the market or at school or any other official institution. This language is so negatively valued by its young native speakers that it will disappear if no institutional support comes from the government to help promote and maintain it."
