The Edomite language was a Hebrewic dialect spoken by the Edomites in southwestern Jordan and parts of Israel in the first millennium BC. It is known only from a very small corpus. In early times it seems to have been written with a Canaanite alphabet; like the Moabite language it retained feminine -t. However in the 6th century BC it adopted the Aramaic alphabet.
