Thank you for your kind explanation.
If this can be understood as the relationship between Standard Arabic
(ISO 639:arb) and Arabic (ISO 639:ara), then zgh is not a distinct language
because it is just a standard representation of Berber languages. This is
true even in light of the current LPP, which excludes different written
forms of any language.
Therefore, it seems that eligibility for this language cannot be
recognized.

Hello,
I am very familiar with this case as I come myself from Morocco and
speak Berber. The standard Tamazight (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Moroccan_Amazigh) is not a
spoken language, but only a written one. It was created by the official
Academy of Berber languages in Morocco (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Institute_of_Amazigh_Culture) in an
attempt to standardize the Berber languages, as there are many of them
spoken in Morocco (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berber_languages).
So to answer you, standard Tamazight is exactly like modern standard
Arabic (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Standard_Arabic). It is a
standardized language with rules, but not a spoken one (nobody speaks
standard Arabic as a mother tongue, every Arab country has its own dialect).
This is to explain that even if it not native, Zgh can be treated as
modern standard Arabic in terms of linguistics. I hope that this gives a
bit of context, but I am happy to expand on any aspect if you have
additional questions!
Best regards,
Anass

Hi all.
I'm not familiar with the Moroccan languages, so I'd love to hear from
other colleagues.
I'm considering this language project as a potential candidate for
approval, but I'm wondering if this is a standardization of other
languages, or a distinct language from others?
Since this site[1] states that there are no native speakers, I wondered
if this was just standardization of other languages(the case that native
speakers have a standardized language while using their own languages).
