Dear Jason,
'Shlama' means 'Peace'.
'Shlama Akhi' means 'Peace (be) unto you'.
Aramaic is an ANCIENT language.
There are several different kinds of Aramaic.
Look at the LEFT hand side of this website.
Feel free to explore it, it goes in depth about Aramaic.

The P'shitta was written down in the Estrangelo script for us.
The Khabouris Codex is the oldest P'shitta MS that we have, it's from about the 12th Century, but it was COPIED FROM A FIRST CENTURY MS.
