Hi Paul,
Thanks for the excellent education in basics of ancient languages. Having read it, I am surprised that I was so far off the mark. Long ago I attempted to read 'English" from a mere few hundred years ago and couldn't understand it as it was so different from modern English. I reckon the fundamental reason for the difference didn't sink in.
The nearby church is: St. Rabban Hormizd Parish in San Diego of the Holy Apostolic Catholic Assyrian Church of the East, located at 8318 Jamacah Rd., Spring Valley CA, 91977, (619) 460-4700.
You've mentioned some folks who can easily read lines of the New Testament; do you think any of them would be willing to record the few verses I've posted? I have little money and I could afford to make a small donation. I would be content learning how to recite a few lines in modern Aramaic, and would be overjoyed to come closer to classical Aramaic.
I know you have lots of demands on your time Paul, and am grateful you give some of it with me.
