Thanks to the discovery of Ugaritic texts, Akkadian tablets, Canaanite letters found at Tell el-Amarna in Egypt, Hebrew and Aramaic inscriptions, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, our understanding of the phonology, morphology, and syntax of the Semitic languages has increased substantially. Dallaire focuses primarily on prose texts in Biblical Hebrew and Amarna Canaanite in which the verbal system (morphemes, syntax) expresses nuances of wishes, desires, requests, and commands. According to her, volitional concepts are found in every language and are expressed through verbal morphemes, syntagmas, intonation, syntax, and other linguistic means. The Syntax of Volitives in biblical Hebrew and Amarna Canaanite prose attempts to answer the following questions: do volitives function in a similar way in biblical Hebrew and Amarna Canaanite? Where and why is there overlap in morphology and syntax between these two languages? What morphological and syntactical differences exist between the volitional expressions of the languages? In attempting to answer these questions, the author bears in mind the fact that, within each of these two languages, scribes from different areas used specific dialectal and scribal traditions (for example, northern versus southern, peripheral versus central)." 410 0$aLinguistic studies in ancient West Semitic ;$vVolume 9. 606 $aWollen$2gnd 606 $aVerb$2gnd 606 $aTontafel$2gnd 606 $aHebräisch$2gnd 606 $aHebrew language$xVerb$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00954329 606 $aHebrew language$xGrammar, Comparative$xCanaanite language 606 $aCanaanite language$xVerb 606 $aHebrew language$xVerb 615 7$aWollen. 615 7$aVerb. 615 7$aTontafel. 615 7$aHebräisch. 615 7$aHebrew language$xVerb. 615 0$aHebrew language$xGrammar, Comparative$xCanaanite language. 615 0$aCanaanite language$xVerb. 615 0$aHebrew language$xVerb. 676 $a492.45 700 $aDallaire$b Helene$01812913 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954431903321 996 $aThe Syntax of Volitives in Biblical Hebrew and Amarna Canaanite Prose$94365591 997 $aUNINA
