About Aramaic
Aramaic is a Semitic language with a history spanning over 3,000 years, originally spoken in the ancient region of Aram in modern-day Syria. It became the lingua franca of the Neo-Assyrian, Neo-Babylonian, and Achaemenid Persian empires, spreading across the entire Near East. Various forms of Aramaic have been written in multiple scripts including the Aramaic alphabet, Hebrew script, and Syriac script.
Aramaic holds immense religious significance as the language of portions of the biblical books of Daniel and Ezra, the Jewish Talmud, and the likely everyday language of Jesus Christ. The language evolved through Old, Imperial, Middle, and Modern periods, with small communities of Neo-Aramaic speakers still existing in parts of Iraq, Syria, Turkey, and Iran. Aramaic's alphabet is the ancestor of both the Hebrew and Arabic writing systems. Fascinated by ancient civilizations? Try the Aztec Name Generator for names from Mesoamerican tradition.
