Signs, Signs

This is a subway station sign in Rabat, Morocco. What caught our attention was the name of the station is written in three languages. The left one of course is written in Roman alphabet and in French. The right one is written in Arabic. Those we knew for sure. The middle sign stumped us. We could not guess what writing it was. Later we learned it is the Berber language and written in the Berber alphabet
