South-East Semitic (Ethiopic and South-Arabic)

IT IS GENERALLY admitted that Ethiopic and South-Arabic form a dialectal unity within the Semitic languages,2 but the problem has not yet been examined in its entirety.3 I plan here to examine this problem in detail and to produce proofs for the dialectal unity of both groups. I shall cite above all the points common to Ethiopic and SouthArabic to the exclusion of the other languages; only the few features which also appear in Akkadian will be mentioned here.4 (Some of the features occur only in one or more languages, not in the group as a whole.) This article will consider the phonology, the morphology and the vocabulary
