'''{{PAGENAME}}''' ({{PAGENAME}}: ''socovíc'' /ˈsotsoviːts/ or ''socovija lesán'' /ˈsotsovija ˈlesaːn/), sometimes called '''Sotsovian''' in English, is a Semitic language in the [[w:Balkan sprachbund|Balkan Sprachbund]]. A North Semitic language, it ~~shares~~ many ~~features with~~ Central Semitic tongues such as Arabic, Aramaic and Hebrew~~; however~~, it preserves archaic features that have not survived in Central Semitic languages, as well as some innovations in its grammar. The name of the language, ''socovíc'', seems to have originated from {{recon|√s-t-w}}, a root meaning 'north' in {{PAGENAME}} (cf. Hebrew {{heb|סְתָו}} ''săṯâw'' 'winter'). Like its Semitic relatives, {{PAGENAME}} is a fusional language with an accusative alignment.
