东北新阿拉姆语方言是阿拉姆语系中幸存下来的分支之一。它们非常多样化,是或曾经是来自伊拉克、土耳其、叙利亚和伊朗的基督教和犹太教少数民族所使用的语言。他们一直与该地区的其他语言密切接触,最着名的是库尔德语,但也有阿拉伯语,突厥语和波斯语。因此,它们不仅在词汇和语音方面,而且在形态和句法方面都表现出很大的接触影响。借词的确切形式以及借词的行为通常反映了外来语的方言,这表明细粒度的方言数据在语言接触研究中是多么重要。虽然一些接触的语言,即库尔德语,土耳其语和波斯语,在结构上与NENA有很大的不同,但结构一致性或兼容性充其量只是在促进借款方面发挥了波动作用。
The North-Eastern Neo-Aramaic dialects form one of the surviving branches of the Aramaic language family. Extremely diverse, they are or were spoken by Christian and Jewish minorities originating in Iraq, Turkey, Syria and Iran. They have been in intense contact with other languages of the region, most notably Kurdish, but also Arabic, Turkic languages and Persian. As a result, they show a great deal of contact influence, not only in lexicon and phonology but also in morphology and syntax. The precise forms of the borrowings, as well as their behavior, usually reflect the local dialects of the donor language, showing how important fine-grained dialectal data is in a study of language contact. While some of the languages in contact, namely Kurdish, Turkish and Persian, are structurally very different to NENA, structural congruence or compatibility plays at best a fluctuating role in facilitating borrowings.
