Publisher's Synopsis
Libyan Vocabulary is a book by Francis William Newman, published in 1882, which aims to revive the ancient Numidian language. The book is a collection of vocabulary words and phrases from four modern languages spoken in Libya, including Arabic, Berber, Turkish, and Greek. Newman's goal was to reconstruct the ancient Numidian language, which was spoken in North Africa during the Roman Empire, by comparing modern words and phrases to those found in ancient texts. The book provides a detailed analysis of the linguistic features of the four modern languages, as well as their connections to the ancient Numidian language. Libyan Vocabulary is a valuable resource for scholars and linguists interested in the history and evolution of language in 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.
