Very interesting video! I have two questions. (1) Could Akk mār be cognate with Aramaic bar? And then Aramaic bar be connected to Heb ben / Ar ibn? (2) The phrase mār awīlim sehram seems like it could be rendered as: ibn al-sayyid al-saghīr / ibn sayyid saghīr. In these Arabic formulations, it would be understood only by context that "small" modifies son, not sayyid. And yet, grammatically, it is still possible to construe the "small" as applying, instead, to the sayyid. Does the Akkadian have this same ambiguity? Gosh, I hope my question was clear! Many thanks for any thoughts.

WHO CARES ? FOR IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO MY FAITH IN GOD

I’m confused now, do we bring a walking stick or not? Lol

Good Day Sir I have some question about the Aramaic language and I think you are the best one to ask. My first question were what kind of Aramaic is biblical Aramaic, according to Wikipedia you can divide Aramaic according to Klaus Beyer in 3 kinds, old, middle, and modern Aramaic. Klaus Beyer and Aaron Butts into 5. The English Wikipedia says that Biblical Aramaic is Old Aramaic, but the German website says that is middle Aramaic. My second question is what's the differences between all kinds of Aramaic, Old Aramaic, Official Aramaic, Middle Aramaic, Late Aramaic and Modern Aramaic.

Fantastic content! Thank you Professor Wingert!

Oops! Yes, video states -um indicates nominative case. But I'm still curious about how / if Akkadian -um and Arabic -un are related. Perhaps it is too complex for a short answer.

So, if I'm understanding correctly, Akkadian napištum can mean "a soul" or "the soul" (i.e. this word is not inherently indefinite or definite). But does the -um suffix indicate case e.g. nominative case (in the same way that Arabic nafsun would indicate nominative case)? The similarity between Akkadian mimation and Arabic nunation is striking: Are they historically connected? Or is the similarity just coincidence? Many thanks for any guidance!

The pre-Roman Celtic Church of Britain & Ireland kept the Sabbath after the practice of the Quartodeciman churches founded by John the Apostle across Asia Minor until the Synod of Whitby in 664, after which the British Church turned Roman, with the later Protestants keeping those Roman dates and 'holy days' such as 'Christ-Mass' & 'Easter' without question. ☘

Did Akkadian came first or did Arabic ? Some pple say that Akkadian derived from old Arabic is it true ? Or is it the other way around ? If so what is the evidence please

I appreciate if you can change the Title , Syriac vs Ethiopic . Ge'ez is the proper name. since Ethiopic only refer to Ethiopia. There is a Country north of Ethiopia called Eritrea which has languages that are more closely linked to Ge'ez than Amharic . Since you are Linguist . I am sure you can find out that Amharic is %40 none Semitic ( you can't even consider it as Semitic anymore.) . Tigrigna , and Tigre both in Eritrea are much closer to Ge'ez . Thanks for the post !

I’ve always been very fascinated by the Aramaic dialect of ancient Palmyra. I would love to see a video about that topic from you, please 😊

I' m Roman Catholic former .Recently read Moses& Joshua english from hebrew stories..It was adjustment to a hebrew Bible. Now I m about reading other volumes of Hebrew Bible..and must say there s huge difference between old testament Catholic Bible..in very positive way...its kind like boost of all infirmations,names,stories historical facts which has been or ommit or removed from Catholic Bible...cery big lost!. All those additional information helps to know better God His will,requests,commands to get closer to Him by proper understanding Who is He and what His expectations according us...He s not only God full of we should have fears .but He is accompanying us for every day ,giving us free will...and hoping we listen Him.Those hebrew Books helps by giving very realistic picture of facts which in Old Testament Catjolic Bible is lack and that's why is full of confusion,misunderstandings and most of us can't imagine true...and most stories becouse of tgeirs shortness taking as a mit,legend story not necessarly true

This was very helpful.

I am an Assyrian, speaking Aramaic with the eastern accent. Very interesting video that the Ethiopic is so close to Aramaic. Thank you for preparing such videos.

I'm going to start learning Akkadian next semester as part of my Master's of Theology degree.

Amharic is more closer to Syriac (Aramaic ) 👍 Geeze is more closer to Hebrew

I’m an Iraqi Arab and I really want to learn Akkadian I wish our schools did teach us but unfortunately they didn’t

Thank you so much

Could the knower help me on this. And put aside religious context. Alquran surah 61, as saf; Verse 5, musa used ANNI rasulullah ilaikum. Verse 6, isa ibni maryam used INNI rasulullah ilaikum. ?? Anni vs Inni ?? Sukran. Peace

Just found u.. I am not an arab. The word heaven semayat in ethiopic is samawat in arabic.. Interesting.

What about the word Elohim?

Thank you for your explanation sir

Are there any dialects that are a mic of both Aramaic and Akkadian? Also I am curious if Chaldean is a another semetic because they are an ancient ethnic group that migrated from Arabia to Iraq.

So, Noahs Ark before genesis 1:1?

We need to bring CPA back to Palestinian christianity!

hi prof. wingert. are you aware of the existence of an almost complete copy of the gospels in aramaic (minus 10 pages from matthew) vatican folio #140 from edessa made under the order of the third bishop of edessa with a scibal colophon from december 15 in the 389th year of the greeks (78 ad). this was found by joseph assemani in the chaldean patriarchate in baghdad and transported to rome in the early 1700s. does this manuscript still exist? or is it in the louvre, bibliotheque nationale, french archives or lost forever because of the transfer of the vatican library to france during the napoleonic era?

Akkadian is the most different and the rest is very similar

Even before the world exist,even adam and evi exist there is already 10 commandments in heaven its the law and the word of God so sabbath day(Saturday) is the true day to worship him

The fact that the Mesopotamian fertility god Dumuzi has a summer month named after him blew my mind, considering the myth in which he is imprisoned in the underworld, bringing about winter.

Prof mike Your lectures are priceless. Many thanks

As an assryian from mergasoor we say resha raq or raqa. Usually it means very stubborn. This is so interesting to understand the origin of my language. Thank you so much prof mike.

Professor mike we dont say Rabi kasha. We use rabi + his name or we refer to him as khash + name.

I am so grateful to have you explaining the new testimnent in sryiac.

Amazing gives me goosebumps

I dont see why you don’t acknowledge the violence of Islam. Do you think it would be better for Israel to be an Islamic state? Who else will stop them?

Professor when what the real reason that in iraq some people call them chaldean and some assryian. They both speak almost the same. I had friends from both group i strongly believe chaldean is a man made to divide the assryian ? Thanks

Akkadian Shi is the same as English She

From a practical use, what do doctors, nurses, CNAs do? Leave people die? Or the dairy farmer, if cows are not milked at certain times daily, there will be bacteria in the milk and the cow itself will suffer sickness.

Thank you! Arabic, the standard one at least, also have pronouns for "you two" and "them two".

Hi, I have a question. In biblical Hebrew qamets on closed unaccented syllables is pronounced like a short "o". but here you pronounced שָׁלְטָנְהוֹן as "shaltanhon" and not "sholtonhon". So my question is whether the pronunciation rules that apply to Hebrew parts of the bible, apply in Aramaic parts as well?

Sherbet is not a Turkish word at all . Sherwa is Assyrians word for soup but sherbet or sharab drink or wine is Persian.Turkish language is a combination of mogul Persian Arabic Assyrians Armenian language

Interesting:the word centre is more correct than center as its origin is Aramaic from qendroon where later Greeks take it as kentro so it is best to keep the British form that is closer to the origin of the word

Thanks for putting this on explaining I am trying to learn Hebrew and worked out paleo Hebrew trying to learn to read Dead Sea scrolls and earlier I learnt some of the earlier scrolls are in syriac it’s all very cool I am from australia thanks

What do the months' names mean? I was taught they were Babylonian gods. Any truth to that?

What is the addition that corresponds to (ment as in agreement) in the Canaanite language?

You skipped a line in verse 22, בַּתִּין מְאָה וְעַד־בַּתִּין מְשַׁח מְאָה וּמְלַח. At 1:51

This is great. I am not able to follow the Biblical part. Syriac is enough complicated. I love how you mark the words in English and Syriac. If all could do like you. Thank you.

Aliens?!? ...WITCHCRAFT!!!
