Hi everybody! I'm an Assyrian from Iran. I know of countless Persian friends and acquaintances who've married foreigners with their children being brought up to speak the Farsi language fluently. As if they were brought up in a home where both parents spoke it with them. The father especially making it an important priority to raise the child to be able to speak the language very well.

On the other hand, I've seen many Assyrians who've married foreigners not raising their children to learn Assyrian at all. Or in this case, the same fervent way as the Iranians have.

I believe it's a huge plus if you can. It makes it easier to integrate with the culture and society when you want to.

I've always thought that all these people (Arameans and Assyrians) were classified as Syriacs and that Chaldean was just a religious title. How wrong is that?

Here's few photos of my trip to khanas ancient site. I'm an Arab but an admirer of the Assyrian empire and history nonetheless...

I'm currently travelling in the Tur Abdin region and sharing daily on X my findings and impressions. Once I come back I can do an AMA if the subreddit is interested.

Interesting to see how Faisal viewed the challenge of nation building in Iraq

In 201, Assyrian archeologist Eliyo Eliyo expressed his frustration with the restoration of a church in the village of Zaz in Tur'abdin as it made the cuneiform inscriptions on a rock at the entrance of the church completely unreadable.

Eliyo Eliyo focuses on Tur'abdin and the region of Mardin, he has had multiple appearances on AssyriaTV.

Hello, Assyrian brothers. I am a Turkish person who loves Assyrian culture and I have had some chances to meet with good Assyrian Christians. I wish our pasts were different, I wish we didn't have an Islamist government working for the interests of NATO and Israel and I wish we could live in peace. I am also sorry for Turkish expansionism in Syria which serves directly to Western and Jewish interests. I am also sorry for the atrocities done by my ancestors and Kurds in the past. I hope all people can live in peace.

However, I have one question related to Assyrian Christianity. I have witnessed that Assyrian Church and Assyrian Christians are Nestorians and they reject the hypostatic union and as a member of Eastern Orthodox Church, I was advised to avoid Assyrian Churches in general because of Nestorianism. Do you think that this difference can be solved in future and Orthodox churches can be united?

assyrians are fairly split between iraq and syria, and to this day i dont know why north mesepotamia, Assyria, was split between these two countries by the french and english. over all, which country do you guys associate with more?

Hello everyone! I hope this finds you all well. I would like to direct my question specifically at people familiar with the relations between Assyrians and Kurds in the region of Hakkari during and prior to the 18th century.

Do we know of any cases where Assyrians in the area converted to Islam and assimilated into their Kurdish neighbors? entire tribes or clans even? whether in the historical record or perhaps the stories of elders? I am asking this in hopes of clarifying some things about my genealogy.

Any information shared will be appreciated. Thanks in advance! 🙏❤️

We have many assyrian churches throughout the world. Write down the oldest, largest and most important, top 5. I am really curious but cant find any answers on google.

My grandparents eat a garlic clove everyday and other stuff like that do you guys know any other folk remedies

Kind of a history question, with kohl im referring to كُحْل (hope thats the right word) what is used for cosmetics and health reasons on the eye. Its been stated that its been used in ancient Egypt, so I was curious if it had any ties to our culture. Thanks alot.
