It is the so called Stephanyan’s Gramatice (author is Stephanos Stephanyan Roshka), which is rewritten in 1726 in Stanislavov by scribe Martiros Senienc. The Stephanyan’s Gramatice is a variation of Gramatice of the Armenian language. This is the fifth known manuscript of the Stephanyan’s Gramatice all over the world.
