The Eastern Berber languages are a group of Berber languages spoken in Libya and Egypt. They include Awjila, Sokna and Fezzan (El-Fogaha), Siwi and Ghadamès,[1] though it is not clear that they form a valid genealogical group.
Eastern Berber is generally considered as part of the Zenatic Berber supergroup of Northern Berber.
