[Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/arc/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [docs](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/) / [papers](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/) / [Aramaic](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/arc/) # Aramaic Aramaic was the common language of the Near East for a thousand years: the chancery language of the Persian empire, the language of parts of Daniel and Ezra, of the Targumim that read the Bible aloud in translation, of both Talmuds and of the Zohar, and today of the Neo-Aramaic speakers. These cards cover its grammar, its dialects, Syriac, and the tools built for it. Mova reads Aramaic from its texts, dialect by dialect; the cards say which ideas go into its language segmenter, its dictionaries and its manuals of Biblical, Targumic, Palestinian, Babylonian and Zoharic Aramaic. 20 pages - [aclbulk-2010-mcclanahan-probabilistic-morphological-analyzer-syriac](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/aclbulk-2010-mcclanahan-probabilistic-morphological-analyzer-syriac/) — A Probabilistic Morphological Analyzer for Syriac - [aclbulk-2020-gorene-lemmatization-pos-tagging-process-joint](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/aclbulk-2020-gorene-lemmatization-pos-tagging-process-joint/) — Lemmatization and POS-tagging process by using joint learning approach.
