Haketia
Haketia ( Ḥakkītīyā; al-Ḥakītiya; ) (also written as Hakitia or Haquitía) is an endangered Jewish Romance language also known as Djudeo Spañol, Ladino Occidental, or Western Judaeo-Spanish. It was historically spoken by the North African Sephardim in the Moroccan cities of Tétouan, Tangier, Asilah, Larache, Chefchaouen, Ksar el-Kebir, and the Spanish towns of Ceuta and Melilla. Tetuani Ladino was also spoken in Oran, Algeria. One of the distinctions between Ladino and Haketia (Haquetia) is that the latter incorporates Moroccan Arabic.

Solitreo

It is a Sephardi script, quite different from the Ashkenazi cursive Hebrew currently used for Hebrew handwriting in modern Israel and for Yiddish. The two cursive Hebrew script forms differ from each other in many ways, including in that Solitreo uses far more typographic ligatures than the Modern Hebrew script.
