This nifty little program generates EVERY possible root that can "theoretically" exist in Syriac.

How to use:

When you load up the program, it'll ask you for a number. The number is how many consonants you want each root to list as.

example, if you input 3, the program will make every possible tri-literal Semitic root that can be formed in Syriac!

the program will then make a local text file listing all the possible n-roots line by line :)

here's a triliteral Semitic root list generated by the program!

That's really cool.
What is this supposed to be used for?
Click to expand...

the purpose of it to map out new meanings/attributes/concepts to these roots in order to form new words.

I'm pretty sure you've heard/read that Syriac is a Semitic language.

Semitic languages are organized by multi-consonant roots with meanings or concepts.

The purpose of the short script program is to create every possible combination of Syriac roots (depending on how many consonants the roots will have) in order to form new roots in a, hopefully, organized manner.
 
new improvement on the syriac root list generator. I've updated it with a GUI so one can use it more easily :)

below is the compiled python code, use it in python 3.4+ to use :3
