ARAMAIC LANGUAGES

This article appears in Volume V02, Page 317 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: APO-ARN
ARAMAIC LANGUAGES , a class of
languages
  so called from Aram, a geographical
term
 , which in old Semitic usage designates nearly the same districts as the
Greek
  word Syria. Aram, however, does not include Palestine, while it comprehends
Mesopotamia
  (Heb. Aram of two
rivers
 ), a region which the Greeks frequently distinguish from Syria proper. Thus the Aramaic
languages
  may be geographically defined as the Semitic dialects originally current in
Mesopotamia
  and the regions extending
south
 -west from the
Euphrates
  to Palestine. (See SEMITIC LANGUAGES;
SYRIAC
 ;
TARGUM
 .)
