Eh...I guess I jumped the gun there...but your other posts in other
forums seemed to me to point in that direction...meh maybe I'm
wrong...only you know eh......In the case that I am wrong and I
offended you...then I appologize...
NE ways...while we're on the toppic of Assyrians I got a question...How
do we know what their language sounded like? Didn't their nation
die out a long time ago? Like Uber long time ago?

Assyrians still exist as both an Ethnic minority within Iraq and other
countries in the region (as well as migrant communities eslewhere,
especialy in the US), and as a Branch/sect of Christianity.

Ask Assyrianman, he has alot to say about them. Check out his posting at The Truth about Islam , and its ok, I guess you can get the wrong view from my name. But, i do have strong opinions and i like to hear what others have to say about them(although it angers me at times..)

Yup, we have quite a bunch of them here. Know a few of them, friendly fellas. Completely crazy on the football stadium though, and now when their team (Assyriska) got a place in the highest league they'll get plenty of publicity, me thinks.

Didn't Israel die out like an Uber long time ago?
Actually Assyria died out around the 600's bc, to be taken over by the persians.
What exactly is an 'Islamic language'?

I would guess Arabic or Farsi, although I honestly couldn't tell the difference between arabic and hebrew.

Actually from what I understand assyrians speak aramaean which many jews spoke in palestine.

They are languages spoken by muslims, but are also spoken by Christians and other religions too.
Arabic is easily the most important language for Islam, on account of
the Koran being first written in that language, it is also a script
that spread into other languages via Islam. Kind of like Latin to
Catholocism and what not.

yes, but when really how many Christians speak arabic? the difference about Latin and Catholocism is that Latin is a dieing language, as Arabic is still spreading.

Latin has evolved into many languages such as French and Portuguese if I am correct.

Indeed all Romance languages are derived from (vulgar) Latin.
