A Grammar of the Hittite Language

Part 1: Reference Grammar

Harry A. Hoffner Jr. and H. Craig Melchert

“In this second edition of A Grammar of the Hittite Language, Melchert superbly synthesizes the substantially increased knowledge of all aspects of Hittite grammar since the first edition in 2008, regularly adding his own original grammatical insights.
