What is A Grammar of Neo-Aramaic: The Dialect of the Jews of Arbel (Handbook of Oriental Studies/Handbuch Der Orientalistik) (Handbook of Oriental Studies/Handbuch Der Orientalistik) about?

Being direct descendants of the Aramaic spoken by the Jews in antiquity, the still spoken Jewish Neo-Aramaic dialects of Kurdistan deserve special and vivid interest. Geoffrey Khan's "A Grammar of Neo-Aramaic" is a unique record of one of these dialects, now on the verge of extinction. This volume, the result of extensive fieldwork, contains a description of the dialect spoken by the Jews from the region of Arbel (Iraqi Kurdistan), together with a transcription of recorded texts and a glossary.
