Shenwa, also spelled Chenoua (autonym Haqbaylit̠), is the Berber language of Jebel Chenoua in Algeria, just west of Algiers in the provinces of Tipaza (incl Cherchell) and Chlef. The speech of Jebel Chenoua proper is mutually comprehensible with that of the nearby Beni Menacer and Beni Haoua, and the two are thus treated as a single language. There are some 76,000 speakers.
