| Abstract: | It is difficult to honour properly someone who is self-effacing, intelligent, practical, and always ready to help. We are referring to Martin Zammit, whose contributions to the field of Semitic Studies need no introduction. However, it is worthwhile to write something about Martin’s background (both personal and academic), in order to better appreciate his contributions to the fields of Arabic, Arabic dialectology, Syriac, and, not least, comparative Semitic lexicography. |
