Assyrian Neo-Aramaic[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Blend of ܝܼܢܵܐ (īnā, “they are”) +‎ ܗ݇ܘܵܐ (wā)

Pronunciation[edit]

  • (standard) IPA(key): [ʔiːwɑː], [ʔiːwɑwː]

Verb[edit]

ܝܼܗ݇ܘܵܘ • (īwā)

  1. third-person plural past indicative of ܗܵܘܹܐ (hāwē): They were

Usage notes[edit]

  • The ܚܒ݂ܵܨܵܐ (ḥḇāṣā) under the ܝܘܿܕ (yōd) usually drops if a vowel sound precedes, with or without ܐ, and the ܝܘܿܕ (yōd) coalesces. Therefore written ܝܗ݇ܘܵܘ (ìwā)
