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. The discussion excellently represents the state of the art while also making clear that much work still needs to be done. The book is a must-read for Hittitologists and Indo-Europeanists.”
—Petra Goedegebuure, senior editor of The Chicago Hittite Dictionary

Cover for A Student’s Vocabulary of Akkadian in Assyrian Royal Inscriptions

A Student’s Vocabulary of Akkadian in Assyrian Royal Inscriptions

T. E. Kelley and Raleigh Heth

“This Student’s Vocabulary offers a well-structured approach to learning and memorizing the vocabulary used in Assyrian royal inscriptions. Since it is organized according the frequency of attestations for each word, students will quickly make progress in their ability to read and understand texts from this fascinating corpus—and therefore will soon start enjoying their reading. And since the most frequently used words are also frequent in other corpora, this Student’s Vocabulary also facilitates the approach to other Akkadian corpora as well and consequently will prove helpful for any student of Akkadian.”
—Frauke Weiershäuser, coauthor of The Royal Inscriptions of Nabopolassar (625-605 BC) and Nebuchadnezzar II (604-562 BC), Kings of Babylon, Part 1
