'''Socovíc''' (Socovíc: ''socovíc'' /ˈsotsoviːts/ or ''socovija lesánvět'' /ˈsotsovija ˈlesaːnvæt/), 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 Socovíc (cf. Hebrew {{heb|סְתָו}} ''săṯâw'' 'winter').
