Phoenicians were merchants whom sailed all over the Mediterranean and the language they use is dialectic and a compressed form of Greek , reason for that, is too fit as much information on tablets, that they brought with them on ship for stock taking and other merchandising business.
If they used Greek, containing long words , they would need more tablet, that will weight them down, the Ancient Egyptians had two language for similar reason, They wrote Hieroglyphic on stone, but they used Heretic for writing down stories on Papyrus .
Greek (Story telling)
Phoenician ( Trade )
The patron deity of the Phoenicians is Melqart , this name is identical with Hercules and Mercury of the Romans.
MLQRT מלךקרת
>MLKQRT > LKQRT > RKKLS ' Her'kleez '
> MRKKRS > ' Mercurius ' * Merx
Often times between Phoenician languages, M/N are added/taken away
in the front of words, so don't be fooled , compare Mars/Ares and Lac/Milk
Linear B ' PSDON ' (Po-se-da-wo-ne)
Psdwn > Ptdon > ptton > nptton > Npton > Neptune
That is why Poseidon and Neptune are the same god.
Phoenicians are Europeans along with the Romans and Greeks , they all share the Alphabet.
