Syriac

author: Jacob of Edessa
title: Portions of the ܬܘܪܨ ܡܡܠܠܐ, or Syriac Grammar, of Jacob of Edessa, in which he explained and applied his new system of vowel-pointing to the Syriac language.
On Jacob of Edessa, as grammarian, see, in particular "Jacques d'Édesse et les Voyelles Syriennes," by M. l'Abbé Martin, in the Journal Asiatique for Mai-Juin 1869, p. 447; "Jacobi Epi Edesseni Epistola ad Gregorium Epum Sarugensem" etc., ed. Martin, 1869; and "A Letter by Mar Jacob, bishop of Edessa, on Syriac Orthography," etc., edited by Dr. Phillips, 1869.
rubric: ܬܘܪܨ ܡܡܠܠܐ
The oldest system of vowel-punctuation used by the Syrians was that by means of small points or dots above and below the consonants (ܐܲ, ܐܵ, etc.), which has been retained by the Nestorians. Subsequently, about the time of Jacob of Edessa, the Greek vowels were introduced in the same positions (ܐܰ or ܐܱ, ܐܳ or ܐܴ, etc.)—whether by himself or by others, is not perfectly clear, — and were gradually extensively adopted by the Jacobites. The earliest examples of their use in the Nitrian manuscripts are in Add. 17,134 [...], fol. 83 (dating from about A.D. 675, and perhaps autograph of Jacob, see above, no. CCCCXXI [...] .), and Add. 14,429 [...] (dated A.D. 719, see above, no. LX [...] .).
Jacob planned, however, a farther reformation, viz. the introduction of a series of vowel-signs which could be written, like the Greek vowels, on a level with and between the consonants; and it was partly with the view of recommending this system to his countrymen that he composed the ܬܘܪܨ ܡܡܠܠܐ ܢܗܪܝܐ or "Emendation of the Mesopotamian Language," to which Bar Hebraeus alludes in the ܟܬܒܐ ܕܨܡ̈ܚܐ, cited by M. Martin in his article "Jacques d'Edesse et les Voyelles Syriennes," pp. 455, seqq. [See also Assemani, Bibl. Or., t. i., p. 477.] The passage is as follows in Add. 7201, fol. 195 :
܏ܨܡܚ̣ܐ ܕܠܐ ܥܛܷܠ ܡܘܼܠܵܝ ܚܲܣ̣ܝܪܘܬ ܐܬܘ̈ܬܐ ܣܘܪ̈ܝܝܬܐ. ܒܨܘܼܪ̈ܬܐ ܕܡ̣ܢ ܕܝܠ̣ܗ ܐܫܠ̣ܡ ܚܲܣܝܐ ܚܲܘܝ̣. ܠܩ̈ܠܢܝܬܐ ܡ̇ܢ ܫܒܥ. ܘ܏ܠܦܐ ܝܲܘܢܝܬܐ ܚܕܐ. ܘܠܐܬܘ̈ܬܐ ܡܪ̈ܟܟܬܐ ܒܢܘܼ̈ܩܙܐ ܕܬܚܘܬ ܘܠܩܫ̈ܝܬܐ ܡ̣ܬܬܣ̈ܝ̣ܡܢ ܦܲܪܫ. ܘܠܲܦܬܚܐ ܡ̇ܢ ܨܵܪ݂ ܛܘܼܦܣܐ
According to Bar Hebraeus, therefore, Jacob's vowel-system was:

He should have added that ܐ takes the place of ܙܩܦܐ, ā[^1] as in ܐ�ܪܗܐܝ (ܐܘ̇ܪܗܳܝ), ܓ�ܒܝܐܬܐ (ܓܰܒ̈ܝܳܬܳܐ). [The original description of this manuscript by William Wright includes characters, symbols, or illustrations which cannot be represented. Please consult the attached image, vol. 3, p. 1169.]
These vowel-signs seem to be akin to the ܡܬܬܘܣ̈ܦܢܝܬܐ ܕܥܠ ܐܠܦ ܒܝܬ ܢܗܪܝܬܐ or "Additions to the Mesopotamian Alphabet," given in Add. 14,620 [...], fol. 13b (see Land in the Zeitschrift der Deutschen Morgenländischen Gesellschaft, Bd. xxii., p. 550, and Martin, "Jacques d'Edesse et les Voyelles Syriennes," pp. 459, 160); viz.—
