Talk:Tétouan

Clarification

"in the Berber language." Which one? There are three dialects in Morocco: Amazigh, Chleuh, and Riffi. Of these, the latter is concentrated in the north of the country, where Tetouan is located. Is this the intended dialect? --Mashford 18:18, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

As far as I know, "tit"(plurar Tittawen) is a pan-Amazigh word for "eye" and "fountain". It's certainly the case in Morocco.MassNssen (talk) 14:52, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

there is no difference on how we say tit (plr Tittawin) in the different amazigh variances. it's the same word in Morocco and Algeria. Even in Tunisia there is a village with the same meaning.

Bombers

The quote "Some of the bombers in the 2004 Madrid train bombings and Iraq terror campaign came from Tetouan." should be written on a different paragraph. It seems wrongfully linked to the history of the Jews in Tetouan. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.84.111.12 (talk) 22:29, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello,

I undid your edition and added sourced content to the article. WP articles have to be based on references, not on WP:OR and WP:POV.

No, "Tettauen" is never used in English spellings of the city's name. Please see WP:COMMONNAME. Without further input from others on this issue, I'm changing it back to the French spelling that was used previously. Cobblet (talk) 02:13, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

thrid sends to the wrong link

in cuisine, thrid sends to saudi thrid and not north african thrid 41.225.66.214 (talk) 11:27, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

Tharid is our only article, and it is not specific to Saudi Arabia. As the article says: "Tharid is not only widespread in the Arabian Peninsula, but also in North Africa, where it is known as trid; Turkey, where it is known as tirit; and even in Xinjiang, where it is known as terit."

Sayyida al-Hurra

It is beyond reason that she was not given some space in this article. Wikipedia's article on her has, in its first (lead) paragraph, the following:"She is considered to be "one of the most important female figures of the Islamic West in the modern age". That is, she is incontestably notable and the fact that she was governor/prefect of Tetoun for years, running her corsairs from the port and in control of the entire Western Mediterranean (and was titled a Queen). Yes, I know she's listed as a notable person. Not good enough, imho.71.31.145.237 (talk) 18:59, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

No single person has written the article. Why don't you write something up yourself, give a reliable source, or sources, as each statement should be sourced for the information, and add it to the article? She sounds like a fascinating character. Carlstak (talk) 23:26, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
