It is the first complete grammar of any Ancient North Arabian corpus, making it an important contribution to the fields of Arabic and Semitic studies. The volume covers topics in script and orthography, phonology, morphology, and syntax, and contains an appendix of over 500 inscriptions and an annotated dictionary. The grammar is based on a corpus of 33,000 Safaitic inscriptions. 410 0$aStudies in Semitic languages and linguistics ;$vVolume 80. 606 $aInscriptions, Safaitic 606 $aSafaliba language$xGrammar 606 $aInscriptions$zArabian Peninsula 607 $aArabian Peninsula$xAntiquities 607 $aArabian Peninsula$xLanguages 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInscriptions, Safaitic. 615 0$aSafaliba language$xGrammar. 615 0$aInscriptions 676 $a492.7/11 700 $aAl-Jallad$b Ahmad$01043765 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910493156203321 996 $aAn outline of the grammar of the Safaitic Inscriptions$92468957 997 $aUNINA
