p.s. I did manage to find the font for Tifinagh and downloaded it, but
I'll be darned if I can get my word program to use it. I'm technically
challenged! Cindy

Hi, I'll pass this question on. I assume you want it written in
Tifinagh characters. It may even be possible even to compose this word
as text but you'd need a (Unicode) font with this script.

Is "azawakh" the word for a particular kind of dog or simply the word
in Tamashek/Tamajaq for "dog"?

NB- it's Tuareg (I corrected the subject), Burkina Faso and Sahelian
(at the risk of being pedantic - one advantage of my including the
correct spelling here is so this will get hit by searches on those terms).
