NENA

[edit]

Influence of Targumic Aramaic on Jewish NENA? I don't believe this has ever been documented, or even asserted. Influence from Hebrew, certainly, but not from older Aramaic. It is definitely not the case that Targumic Aramaic is to Jewish NENA as Classical Syriac is to Christian NENA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.112.64.79 (talk) 14:45, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Division along religious lines fallacy

[edit]

This is a common misconception created by the popular SIL categorisation. They probably imagined that since Alqosh and Telkef share a distinct dialect and "historical" Jalu and Baz have another similar dialect, one can divide NENA to Assyrian and Chaldean. This is very problematic since it ignores the "Assyrian" dialect of Urmi whose speakers belong to the Chaldean Church and the dialects of Bakhdida, Bartella, Bashiqa... which is quite close to Alqosh but whose speakers are historically Syriac Orthodox.--Rafy talk 19:39, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
