Lishanid Noshan is a modern Jewish Aramaic language often called Neo-Aramaic or Judeo-Aramaic. It was originally spoken in southern and eastern Iraq in the region of Arbil. Most speakers now live in Israel. Lishanid Noshan means ‘the language of our selves'; speakers often also call it Lishana Didan which means ‘our language’. However as similar names are used by most of the dialects of Jewish Neo-Aramaic scholarly sources tend to call it Arbil Jewish Neo-Aramaic.
