Phoenician lacks Hebrew's separate forms for medial and final kaf, mem,
nun, pe and tsadi, so there is not an exact one-to-one mapping.

Hebrew doesn't add final forms until about the time of the Dead Sea Scrolls--they aren't added *consistently* until after that time--so Hebrew from 1,150 B.C.E.-- 200 C.E. also doesn't have these forms.--Elaine
