'''Cubrite''' (Cubrite: כﬞנאַאנידﬞ ''Kibrið'' /kɪbɹɪð/ or נומא כﬞנאַאן ''núm Kibr'' /niːm kɪbɐ/) is a Canaanite language spoken in an alt-hist timeline, spoken by the Cubrites, an ethnically Jewish minority in Sicily. Standard language is based on the Criadoch (''Krírdox'' /kɹɪəˈdɔx/) dialect. Genetic studies have shown that the Cubrites are descendants of Celtic speakers who adopted a Canaanite language. The language preserves quite a few quasi-Biblical words and phrases, but its grammar was completely restructured to use auxiliaries instead of the older prefix and suffix conjugations. | '''Cubrite''' (Cubrite: כﬞנאַאנידﬞ ''Kibrið'' /kɪbɹɪð/ or נומא כﬞנאַאן ''núm Kibr'' /niːm kɪbɐ/) is a Canaanite language spoken in an alt-hist timeline, spoken by the Cubrites, an ethnically Jewish minority in Sicily.
