Hans Stumme

Hans Stumme (1864-1936), a German linguist specialising in the Arabic and Berber dialects of the Maghreb, published in 1893 Tunisian tales collected in Tunis and transcribed phonetically, with translation. In 1900 he collected the stories of Tamezret, one of the last Berber-speaking villages of the South, and taught Oriental languages in Leipzig. His transcriptions are still used because they record the actual pronunciation and not the scholarly spelling.
