Everything about Punic Language totally explained

The Punic language is an extinct Semitic language formerly spoken in the Mediterranean region of North Africa by the people of the Punic culture.

Description

Punic is an extinct variety of the Phoenician language spoken in the oversea Phoenician empire in North Africa, including Carthage, and the Mediterranean. It is known from inscriptions and personal name evidence. Augustine of Hippo is generally considered the last major ancient writer to have some knowledge of Punic, and is considered "our primary source on the survival of [late] Punic".
   In the past it was sometimes said that Punic was an influence on the modern Maltese language, but this theory has been discredited.
