Abstract
In addition to the various nouns meaning ‘year’ attested in the Semitic languages, there exist numerous unique adverbs with reference to years past, present and future. That is to say, besides transparent noun phrases with an adverbial function—phrases that are parallel or similar to English ‘this year’, ‘last year’ and ‘next year’—we also find a number of lexical adverbs with these meanings. This article examines these various adverbs or adverbial phrases in the diverse Semitic languages, both ancient and modern, coming from a variety of semantic developments, some of which are typologically unusual.

The Journal of Semitic Studies was established in 1955 and since then has built up a reputation as one of the leading international academic journals in its field. Semitic Studies has always been understood by the editors to include the modern as well as the ancient Near (Middle) East, with special emphasis on research into the languages and literatures of the area. The editors continue to maintain the policy of ensuring that each volume contains items of interest to Orientalists and Biblical Scholars. Extensive reviews of selected books, as well as general review notices, remain a feature of the Journal.
