updated 12-18-2001 Aramaic (Afro-Asiatic) is a sub-branch of the Northern West Semitic sub-branch of the West Semitic sub-branch of the Semitic branch of the Afro-Asiatic family of languages. Aramaic may be further divided into West Aramaic which includes Biblical Aramaic and Samaritan, and East Aramaic, which includes Syriac. It is written with the Hebrew alphabet, and was the language of the country of Palestine at the time of Christ. Aramaic is still spoken in small communities in Syria and in Turkey. Another dialect, generally called Assyrian, is spoken in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran and in parts of the former Soviet Union. Q Aharoni, Yohanan, 1919-1976. 492.417 [Ketavot 'Arad.
