Suret (Syriac: ܣܘܪܝܬ), also known as Assyrian or Chaldean, refers to the varieties of Northeastern Neo-Aramaic (NENA) spoken by Christians, largely ethnic Assyrians. The various NENA dialects descend from Old Aramaic, the lingua franca in the later phase of the Assyrian Empire, which slowly displaced the East Semitic Akkadian language beginning around the 10th century BC. They have been further heavily influenced by Classical Syriac, the Middle Aramaic dialec...

Similarities Between Assyrian Aramaic and Hebrew
In today’s episode, we’ll be comparing some of the similarities between two Semitic languages, Hebrew and Aramaic, with Berta and Sidorie (Assyrian Neo-Aramaic speakers) and Hila and Noa (Hebrew speakers from Israel) challenging each other with a list of words and sentences. Hebrew and Aramaic have many similarities, which Hebrew being a Northwest Semitic language and the only living Canaanite language left in world, while Neo-Aramaic consists of several languages which are varieties of Aramaic. Among these, the Northeastern Neo-Aramaic and Central Neo-Aramaic dialects are spoken primarily, but not exclusively, by ethnic Assyrians, who are native to Iraq, Syria, Iran, and Turkey. Assyrians are among the Christian minorities in the Middle East, being members of the Assyrian Church of the Ea...

SEMITIC: HEBREW & CHALDEAN NEO ARAMAIC
Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let's learn different languages/dialects together.
Chaldean Neo-Aramaic is a modern Eastern Aramaic or Syriac language, spoken in the region between Lake Urmia in Iranian Azerbaijan and Mosul in northern Iraq. It is not to be confused with the, mostly now disused, term Chaldean referring to the Old Aramaic dialect of the Chaldean, or eleventh, dynasty of Babylonia. Originally, Chaldean Neo-Aramaic was spoken on the Plain of Mosul, northern Iraq, but it is now the language of a worldwide diaspora. Most speakers are members of the Chaldean Catholic Church.
Hebrew is a Northwest Semitic language within the Afroasiatic family, was originally spoken by the Israelites and used regularly until after 200 CE. It has served as the liturg...

Jewish Neo-Aramaic
This short film by Alan Niku offers a brief introduction to Jewish Neo-Aramaic, spoken by Jews in the Kurdish region of Iraq, Iran, and Turkey. The language is related to the ancient Aramaic language of the Talmud, some prayers, and parts of the Bible, but it differs due to historical developments and influences from local languages like Persian, Kurdish, Arabic, and Turkish. Jewish dialects are often more similar to each other than to local Christian Aramaic dialects. Today, Jewish Neo-Aramaic is endangered, as most speakers moved to Israel, the US, and other regions and did not pass their mother tongue along to their children. This film includes clips of conversation and song and images of Jews from the Kurdish region.

Chaldean Neo-Aramaic (Sūreṯ / ܣܘܪܝܬ)

Chaldean Neo-Aramaic, or simply Chaldean, is a Northeastern Neo-Aramaic language spoken throughout a large region stretching from the plain of Urmia, in northwestern Iran, to the Nineveh plains, in northern Iraq, together with parts of southeastern Turkey.
Chaldean Neo-Aramaic is closely related to Assyrian Neo-Aramaic, where it is at times considered a dialect of that language. Most Assyrians in Iraq, Iran and the Khabour River Valley in Syria speak either the Chaldean Neo-Aramaic or Assyrian Neo-Aramaic variety, two varieties of Suret. Despite the two terms seeming to indicate a separate religious or even ethnic identity, both dialects or languages and their native speakers originate from and are indigenous to the same Upper Mesopotamian region (what was Assyria between the 9th century BC and 7th century BC).

Assyrians are among the Christian minorities in the Middle East, being members of the Assyrian Church of the East, Chaldean Catholic Church (Eastern Rite Catholics), Syriac Orthodox Church, Ancient Church of the East, Assyrian Pentecostal Church and Assyrian Evangelical Church. Ancient Hebrew went extinct as a spoken language many centuries ago. However, it survived as a liturgical language for Judaism thanks to Jewish liturgy, rabbinic literature, intra-Jewish commerce, and other texts. For this reason, Hebrew is now considered the only truly successful example of a revived dead language. In the 19th century, it was revived as a spoken and literary language. Hebrew became the lingua franca of Palestine's Jews, and subsequently the official language of the State of Israel. After Israel, the United States has the second largest Hebrew-speaking population in the world.

My apologies for the few typos in the video. I would like to take a minute to address them.
In the video the words nefesh (נפש) and sakhah (שחה) were read, but I had written נְשָׁמָה and לשחות
as I had multiple terms. "len" (ܠܢ) in the first Assyrian Aramaic sentence is a vernacular contraction and should be spelt (ܠܐ ܝܘܢ). "reshakh" (ܪܫܟ̣) has a silent feminine yod at the end, so should be spelt (ܪܫܟ̣ܝ). Also, just to note, the word "shna" (ܫܢܐ) is the absolute state of the feminine noun meaning year - and that's more a feature of Biblical Aramaic and Classical Syriac. In modern Assyrian absolute state is only used in fossilized vocabulary borrowed from Classical Syriac, so it's practically never used. So in almost all cases, the emphatic state which is "sheta" (ܫܢ̄ܬܐ) in the singular, and "shinne" (ܫܢ̈ܐ) in the plural are used.

Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let's learn different languages/dialects together.
Chaldean Neo-Aramaic is a modern Eastern Aramaic or Syriac language, spoken in the region between Lake Urmia in Iranian
Azerbaijan and Mosul in northern Iraq. It is not to be confused with the, mostly now disused, term Chaldean referring to the Old Aramaic dialect of the Chaldean, or eleventh, dynasty of Babylonia. Originally, Chaldean Neo-Aramaic was spoken on the Plain of Mosul, northern Iraq, but it is now the language of a worldwide diaspora. Most speakers are members of the Chaldean Catholic Church.
Hebrew is a Northwest Semitic language within the Afroasiatic family, was originally spoken by the Israelites and used regularly until after 200 CE. It has served as the liturgical language for Judaism and Samaritanism since the Second Temple period. Revived as a spoken language in the 19th century, Hebrew is the only successful large-scale example of linguistic revival. It is the sole surviving Canaanite language and one of only two still-spoken Northwest Semitic languages, the other being Aramaic.
This video is created for educational, language awareness, and language preservation purposes. It aims to provide valuable insights and knowledge to viewers, enhancing their understanding and appreciation of different languages and their unique characteristics. By raising awareness about linguistic diversity, the video seeks to foster a greater respect and recognition for various languages, particularly those that are endangered or underrepresented. Additionally, it contributes to the preservation of languages by documenting and sharing linguistic knowledge, thus ensuring that these languages and their cultural heritage are not lost to future generations.

Jewish Neo-Aramaic, specifically the dialect of Urmia, Iran)
Lishán Didán (לשן דידן Lišān Didān, לשנן Lišānān)
Native to: Israel,
Azerbaijan, Georgia, originally Iran, Turkey
Region: Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, originally from Iranian Azerbaijan
Native speakers: 4,500 (2001)
Language family: Afro-Asiatic
Lishán Didán is a modern Jewish Aramaic language, often called Neo-Aramaic or Judeo-Aramaic. It was originally spoken in Iranian Azerbaijan, in the region of Lake Urmia, from Salmas to Mahabad. Most speakers now live in Israel.
The name Lishán Didán means 'our language'; other variations are Lishanán, 'our-language', and Lishanid Nash Didán, 'the language of our selves'. As this causes some confusion with similarly named languages (Lishana Deni and Lishanid Noshan), scholarly sources tend simply to use a more descriptive name, like Persian Azerbaijani Jewish Neo-Aramaic.
To distinguish it from other dialects of Jewish Neo-Aramaic, Lishán Didán is sometimes called Lakhlokhi (literally 'to-you(f)-to-you(m)') or Galihalu ('mine-yours'), demonstrating a difference of prepositions and pronominal suffixes. Lishán Didán is written in the Hebrew alphabet. Spelling tends to be highly phonetic, and elided letters are not written.
Various Neo-Aramaic dialects were spoken across a wide area from Lake Urmia to Lake Van (in Turkey), down to the plain of Mosul (in Iraq) and back across to Sanandaj (in Iran again).
There are two major dialect clusters of Lishán Didán. The northern cluster of dialects centered on Urmia and Salmas in West Azerbaijan, and extended into the Jewish villages of the Turkish province of Van. The southern cluster of dialects was focused on the town of Mahabad and villages just south of Lake Urmia. The dialects of the two clusters are intelligible to one another, and most of the differences are due to receiving loanwords from different languages: Persian, Kurdish and Turkish languages especially.
Many of the Jews of Urmia worked as peddlers in the cloth trade, while others were jewelers or goldsmiths. The degree of education for the boys was primary school, with only some advancing their Jewish schooling in a Talmud yeshiva. Some of these students earned their livelihood by making talismans and amulets. There was a small girls school with only twenty pupils. There were two main synagogues in Urmia, one large one and one smaller one. The large synagogue was called the synagogue of Sheikh Abdulla.
By 1918, due to the assassination of the Patriarch of the Church of the East and the invasion of the Ottoman forces, many Jews were uprooted from their homes and fled. The Jews settled in Tbilisi or much later emigrated to Israel. The upheavals in their traditional region after the First World War and the founding of the State of Israel led most Azerbaijani Jews to settle in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and small villages in various parts of the country. Due to persecution and relocation, Lishán Didán began to be replaced by the speech of younger generations by Modern Hebrew.
Most native Lishan Didan speakers speak Hebrew to their children now. Fewer than 5,000 people are known to speak Lishán Didan, and most of them are older adults in their sixties who speak Hebrew as well. The language faces extinction in the next few decades.

Jewish Neo-Aramaic, specifically the dialect of Urmia, Iran)
Lishán Didán (לשן דידן Lišān Didān, לשנן Lišānān)
Native to: Israel,
Azerbaijan, Georgia, originally Iran, Turkey
Region: Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, originally from Iranian Azerbaijan
Native speakers: 4,500 (2001)
Language family: Afro-Asiatic
Lishán Didán is a modern Jewish Aramaic language, often called Neo-Aramaic or Judeo-Aramaic. It was originally spoken in Iranian Azerbaijan, in the region of Lake Urmia, from Salmas to Mahabad. Most speakers now live in Israel.
The name Lishán Didán means 'our language'; other variations are Lishanán, 'our-language', and Lishanid Nash Didán, 'the language of our selves'. As this causes some confusion with similarly named languages (Lishana Deni and Lishanid Noshan), scholarly sources tend simply to use a more descriptive name, like Persian Azerbaijani Jewish Neo-Aramaic.
To distinguish it from other dialects of Jewish Neo-Aramaic, Lishán Didán is sometimes called Lakhlokhi (literally 'to-you(f)-to-you(m)') or Galihalu ('mine-yours'), demonstrating a difference of prepositions and pronominal suffixes. Lishán Didán is written in the Hebrew alphabet. Spelling tends to be highly phonetic, and elided letters are not written.
Various Neo-Aramaic dialects were spoken across a wide area from Lake Urmia to Lake Van (in Turkey), down to the plain of Mosul (in Iraq) and back across to Sanandaj (in Iran again).
There are two major dialect clusters of Lishán Didán. The northern cluster of dialects centered on Urmia and Salmas in West Azerbaijan, and extended into the Jewish villages of the Turkish province of Van. The southern cluster of dialects was focused on the town of Mahabad and villages just south of Lake Urmia. The dialects of the two clusters are intelligible to one another, and most of the differences are due to receiving loanwords from different languages: Persian, Kurdish and Turkish languages especially.
Many of the Jews of Urmia worked as peddlers in the cloth trade, while others were jewelers or goldsmiths. The degree of education for the boys was primary school, with only some advancing their Jewish schooling in a Talmud yeshiva. Some of these students earned their livelihood by making talismans and amulets. There was a small girls school with only twenty pupils. There were two main synagogues in Urmia, one large one and one smaller one. The large synagogue was called the synagogue of Sheikh Abdulla.
By 1918, due to the assassination of the Patriarch of the Church of the East and the invasion of the Ottoman forces, many Jews were uprooted from their homes and fled. The Jews settled in Tbilisi or much later emigrated to Israel. The upheavals in their traditional region after the First World War and the founding of the State of Israel led most Azerbaijani Jews to settle in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and small villages in various parts of the country. Due to persecution and relocation, Lishán Didán began to be replaced by the speech of younger generations by Modern Hebrew.
Most native Lishan Didan speakers speak Hebrew to their children now. Fewer than 5,000 people are known to speak Lishán Didan, and most of them are older adults in their sixties who speak Hebrew as well. The language faces extinction in the next few decades.

In today’s language challenge, we are comparing two Semitic languages, Aramaic and Arabic! The participants are Berta (neo-Aramaic speaker) and Meena (Arabic speaker from Iraq), challenging each other with a list of words and phrases. Neo-Aramaic consists of several languages which are varieties of Aramaic. Among these, the Northeastern Neo-Aramaic and Central Neo-Aramaic dialects are spoken primarily, but not exclusively, by ethnic Assyrians, who are native to Iraq, Syria, Iran, and Turkey. Assyrians are among the Christian minorities in the Middle East, being members of the Assyrian Church of the East, Chaldean Catholic Church (Eastern Rite Catholics), Syriac Orthodox Church, Ancient Church of the East, Assyrian Pentecostal Church and Assyrian Evangelical Church. What makes videos such as this even more important is the fact that the number of fluent Neo-Aramaic speakers has shrunk significantly, especially since many have been forced to leave their ancestral homelands.
Arabic is a Central Semitic language and has official/national status
Algeria, Bahrain, Comoros, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, SADR, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tanzania (Zanzibar), Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen.
I would like to thank my friend Paul for helping me put this wonderful video together!

In a remote village nestled in Syrias picturesque Oalamoun mountains, resides a small Aramaic community. It is one of the last and it is devoted to preserving Aramaic: the language that Jesus spoke.
Protecting this 3000-year-old language has united Malulas residents: Christians and Muslims are like brothers in this town, says local resident Ibrahim Kamar. Whilst Mel Gibsons The Passion of Christ has revived interest in the language, fears that Aramaic is dying out continue. Malula, where the orphans must recite in Aramaic, is one of the last bastions for a language Mother Superior Savaf describes as a gift from God.

This short film by Alan Niku offers a brief introduction to Jewish Neo-Aramaic, spoken by Jews in the Kurdish region of Iraq, Iran, and Turkey. The language is related to the ancient Aramaic language of the Talmud, some prayers, and parts of the Bible, but it differs due to historical developments and influences from local languages like Persian, Kurdish, Arabic, and Turkish. Jewish dialects are often more similar to each other than to local Christian Aramaic dialects. Today, Jewish Neo-Aramaic is endangered, as most speakers moved to Israel, the US, and other regions and did not pass their mother tongue along to their children. This film includes clips of conversation and song and images of Jews from the Kurdish region.
