He starts with a disclaimer: "I will talk here only about the Christian Modern Aramaic – the Jewish Modern Aramaic is another thing altogether, and I am not at all sure of the present status of Modern Mandaic."
Could you explain this? Are there different Christian and Jewish languages/dialects (each with ISO codes etc)?
