Publisher's Synopsis
Libyan Vocabulary: An Essay Towards Reproducing The Ancient Numidian Language, Out Of Four Modern Tongues is a book written by Francis William Newman and published in 1882. The book is a scholarly work that aims to recreate the ancient Numidian language, which was spoken in North Africa during the Roman Empire. The author uses four modern languages - Arabic, Berber, Tamasheq, and Hausa - to piece together the vocabulary and grammar of the ancient language. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a particular aspect of the Numidian language, such as nouns, verbs, and adjectives. The author also provides examples of Numidian texts and inscriptions, along with translations and explanations. The book is intended for scholars and linguists interested in the history and evolution of languages, as well as those interested in the ancient cultures of North Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
