You're welcome.
Btw, I just noticed that Mlahsö is also extinct. And Hértevin,
Bohtan, Senaya and Koy Sanjaq Surat are also spoken within
Christian communities but with very small and dwindling numbers of
speakers. Sorry for missing to mark these with + and *
respectively.

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)?
