Lishanid Noshan is a modern Jewish-Aramaic language, often called ''Neo-Aramaic'' or ''Judeo-Aramaic''. It was originally spoken in northeastern Iraq, in the region of Arbil. Most speakers now live in Israel. ''Lishanid Noshan'' means "the language of our people". Speakers often also call it Lishana Didan, which means 'our language'. However, as similar names are used by most of the dialects of Jewish Neo-Aramaic, scholarly sources tend to call it "''Arbil Jewish Neo-Aramaic''". Other popular names for the language are ''Hula'ula'', ''Galigalu'', 'mine-yours' (noting the difference in grammar from other dialects), ''Sureth'' and ''Kurdit''. == Origins == Various Neo-Aramaic dialects were spoken across a wide area from Lake Urmia to Lake Van (in Turkey), down to the plain of Nineveh (in Iraq) and back across to Sanandaj (in Iran again). Lishanid Noshan is quite central to this area (although normally termed a southwestern dialect). It is somewhat intelligible with the Jewish Neo-Aramaic languages of Hulaula (spoken to the east, in Iranian Kurdistan) and Lishan Didan (spoken to the north east, in Iranian Azerbaijan). It is also intelligible with Assyrian Neo-Aramaic spoken in the region. However, it is quite unintelligible from Lishana Deni, the dialect that originally came from northwestern Iraq (Assyria). It is only since the 1980s that studies have shown the distinctiveness that separates Lishanid Noshan from Hulaula; before this time they were simply considered to be dialect clusters of the same essential language. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lishanid Noshan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
