Short description:

This book contains a full grammatical outline of the language of the Safaitic Inscriptions, covering the script, phonology, morphology, and syntax. It includes a chrestomathy, with photographs of inscriptions published for the first time here, and a comprehensive lexicon.

Long description:
This volume contains a detailed grammatical description of the dialects of Old Arabic attested in the Safaitic script, an Ancient North Arabian alphabet used mainly in the deserts of southern Syria and north-eastern Jordan in the pre-Islamic period. 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 second edition covers topics in
script and orthography, phonology, morphology, and syntax, and contains a chrestomathy and a glossary of over 1000 Safaitic lexical items.
