| Summary: | The majority consensus concerning the first-person, singular, independent pronoun in Phoenician-Punic is that the language/s possessed only one form of the pronoun - 'nk. Krahmalkov in his dictionary of Phoenician-Punic lists two instances of a short-form of the pronoun and in his grammar adds two more instances. He regards the existence of the short-form as a dialectal variant of Western Phoenician' (i.e. Punic). Although this proposal is attractive, especially since it gives greater consideration to dialectal variation, the evidence is not convincing on the basis of epigraphic and phonological considerations. |
