The Atlas languages, or more exactly Moroccan Atlas, also Masmuda, are a subgroup of the Northern Berber languages spoken in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. By mutual intelligibility, they are a single language; however, they are distinct sociolinguistically and are considered separate languages by the Royal institute of the Amazigh culture. They are,
- Central Morocco Tamazight (Central Atlas Berber)
- Shilha (Tashelhiyt; also called Tachelhit, Tasusit; includes Judeo-Berber)
- Senhaja de Srair (listed erroneously as Zenati by the Ethnologue), in the southern part of the Rif
