Sokna (Arabic: سوكنة, IPA ['so:kna], also transliterated as Socna or Sawknah, Tamazight: Isuknen[3]) is a Saharan desert oasis town in the Fezzan region of southwest Libya.
The Eastern Berber language Sokna is native to the town. This local pre-arabized dialect, which fell out of use by the end of the 20th century, is retained in place names. Presently, the population speaks Arabic.
