How do you translate Good evening into berber?

There isn't a single, universally accepted way to say "Good evening" in Berber. This is because "Berber" encompasses a variety of languages and dialects spoken across North Africa. Here are some options depending on the specific Berber language:

Tamazight (Central Atlas):

* Slama a-yak (formal)

* A-salām a-yak (more informal)

* A-salām a-k (even more informal)

* A-salām a-yak u-a-d-yas (formal, more literal "peace upon you and your evening")

Kabyle (Northern Algeria):

* Aslem a-yak (formal)

* A-salām a-yak (more informal)

Rif (Northern Morocco):

* Salam a-yak (formal)

* A-salām a-yak (more informal)

Tashelhit (Southern Morocco):

* Aslam a-yak (formal)

* A-salām a-yak (more informal)

Important notes:

* The "a-" prefix is often used as a sign of respect, especially when addressing someone older or in a position of authority.

* You can use the plural form "a-yak" if addressing multiple people.

* The specific form of the greeting can vary depending on the region and individual speaker.

It's always a good idea to check with a native speaker of the specific Berber dialect you're interested in for the most accurate translation.
