I have reverted your addition of Syriac in the lede/intro. I'm not sure it belongs there, since the article is about the modern state. You might want to try the etymology-section if you have some source to back up the origin of the name as being Syriac. Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 > haneʼ 21:32, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Non Free Images in your User Space
Hey there Assyrio, thank you for your contributions! I am a bot alerting you that Non-free files are not allowed in the user or talk-space. I removed some images that I found on User:Assyrio.

Syriac alphabet
Hello/Shlama,

I've reverted the edits you made to Syriac alphabet. Since zayn is not a plosive and chap and jamal are not fricatives, they do not follow the rules for spirantization (i.e., aren't part of the bghadhkphath letters). Instead, they are foreign sounds mentioned at the beginning of the section. Also, I removed the statements like "x sound like the English y as in the word..." since the article is about the Syriac alphabet and not about explaining every IPA symbol. Readers can go to those respective pages (through wikilinks) if they are unfamiliar with those terms. --334a (talk) 19:33, 28 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Which part exactly did you have trouble understanding? I'll try my best to be clearer. :) --334a (talk) 05:07, 1 March 2010 (UTC)


 * You speak a different dialect than mine, and yur rayting veree fonetiklee bayst on yur dayelekt. I don't know what the words ܒܵܣܸܬ or ܩܸܢ  mean. --334a (talk) 21:44, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

Shlama Assyrio,

I've reverted two edits you made to Syriac alphabet. The first one has to do with the soft bghadhkphath letters as images: since you made the images in the Madnkhaya version of the alphabet, anyone who doesn't have those same font settings will show an inconsistent display with the Unicode fonts (i.e., the letters that aren't images), so the fonts could show up as Estrangela but the images are in Madnkhaya. That looks weird, so I changed it back. It's better to have it as text instead of images so everything stays consistent.

The second has to do with the image of "Suryaya" you had on there, which was slightly incorrect with the joining of letters. The higher image below is your image, the bottom is how the letters should be connected.



push b'shayna, --334a (talk) 18:34, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I must be a pain in your butt am I? the reason I made the texts into images is because they render weirdly on the chart, so can I make both sides pictures of the texts? so it can stay consistent? I'm a bit confused on how Estrangelo letters join, because the Madnkhaya is easier to understand when it comes to the joining of letters.

Thanks for letting me know. Shlama to you too. ܐܵܬܘܿܪܵܝܵܐ 18:54, 11 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Brother, let me make it clear that you are no "pain in the butt"! This is Wikipedia; a vandal is a "pain in the butt", you are a valued member trying to improve articles and I appreciate your efforts.


 * Anyway, I thought it was better to use text so that we wouldn't favour one script over the other (Madnkhaya vs. Serto), since the script that is displayed depends on your settings. (As of right now, the "Letters of the Syriac alphabet" chart is incomplete because it doesn't show the Serto letters. I've been meaning to change that for a while now). Estrangela would be a more neutral font to choose from, but even then you're choosing one over the other two. Including all three would be a bit excessive, I think.


 * I'm surprised that you find Estrangela to be difficult to join together, bro! The rules for joining letters is the exact same in all three versions of the alphabet: "The letters ’Ālap̄, Dālaṯ, Hē, Wāw, Zayn, Ṣāḏē, Rēš, and Taw do not connect to a following letter within a word when written" (from Syriac alphabet). B'shayna, ‘aziza! --334a (talk) 01:03, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Well if you want, I can add the Serto script, it's not hard for me as I have the exact scripts with me. ܐܵܬܘܿܪܵܝܵܐ 02:28, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

angel
hi what is the right IPA pronunciation for the neo-aramaic version of english "angel"? is it "malak", "malax" or any other pronunciation? thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.238.239.191 (talk) 15:17, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

the right IPA pronunciation for Angel is Malakha and no problem!

Contribution to Talk:Al-Jazari
I moved your recent comment on the Talk:Al-Jazari to the bottom of the page, as per WP:TOPPOST but I notice you have moved it back to the top of the page. Do you have some reason for breaking the talk page guidelines in this way? By the way, I've checked the sources I have here and can find no particular reference to al-Jazari's ethnicity. As far as I know the sources for his life are very meagre (no more than what is in the introduction to his work) so it's unlikely that we will ever know either way. All the best. –Syncategoremata (talk) 09:26, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

I thought you were putting my post on the bottom so it wouldn't be noticed, and I did not know I was breaking talk page guidelines, my apologies.

Translation into Akkadian

 * Hello,


 * I wondered whether you could translate "Missing" of Evanescence into Akkadian?
 * I myself am not proficient of Akkadian, so I ask you.
 * The text would be this (I've already cut off what is repeated):


 * Missing:


 * Please, please forgive me
 * But I won't be home again
 * Maybe someday you'll look up,
 * And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
 * Isn't something missing?


 * You won't cry for my absence, I know
 * You forgot me long ago
 * Am I that unimportant?
 * Am I so insignificant?


 * Even though I'm the sacrifice
 * You won't try for me, not now
 * Though I'd die to know you love me
 * I'm all alone
 * Isn't someone missing me?


 * I know what you do to yourself
 * I breathe deep and cry out:


 * And if I bleed, I'll bleed
 * Knowing you don't care
 * And if I sleep just to dream of you
 * I’ll wake without you there


 * I'd be very thankful if you could do this for me, the transliteration would be enough.


 * Greetings HeliosX (talk) 16:27, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

that is way too advanced for me, I only know certain Akkadian vocabulary.

Proposed deletion of Assyrians in Kurdistan


The article Assyrians in Kurdistan has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Article adds nothing to what we already have in articles like Assyrians in Iraq. Kurdistan is a region spanning different countries, and yes, Assyrians live there. That's not enough to create a separate article though.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

The article "Kurdish Christians"
Hi Assyrio,

you made some comments in the talk page of said article with regards to its failure to distinguish between Assyrians and Kurds. I've done my best to alter that, although the article seems prone to editing that disregards this disctinction as well as not adhering to Wikipedia's core content policies with regards to Original Research and Verifiability. Should you find the article in such a state of careless editing, feel free to edit it and perhaps add a comment in the talk page. I'm mainly making this comment here because I don't personally edit regularly on Wikipedia (I find the constant edit warring rather time consuming and simply irritating), I just did so now because I noticed blatant factual errors; so I thought I'd notify you because you seem to have an interest in the subject. 81.229.176.77 (talk) 18:25, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
