The book covers topics such as the alphabet, nouns, adjectives, verbs, pronouns, and prepositions. It also includes exercises and examples to help readers practice their understanding of the language. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in learning Syriac or studying the history of the Middle East.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Those who enter upon the study of a foreign language must have aG rammar, which should be neither expensive and voluminous, nor meagre and unsatisfactory. Equally undesirable is it that it should be itself in a foreign tongue. When a man is well grounded in the principles of a language he is in a position to appreciate larger works, but not before. Now I have found that theS yriac Grammars at present in use, are either expensive, voluminous, in a foreign tongue, or meagre and unsatisfactory; I have therefore carefully translated and abridged the well known work of Dr. Hoffmann, which although not perfect, is the best of existing Syriac Grammars. I have carefully avoided omitting anything necessary to the student, and I have often introduced corrections or additions of my own. The arrangement is wholly new, and has been adopted for facility of reference.
