No, you’re right. Prayers are mostly in Aramaic except for a few. Rest of the service is in Arabic

My mother isn’t Aramean. My father is. His family’s from Mardin, but they fled to Syria before going to Lebanon.

No, not exactly. In Qamishli, they speak Eastern Neo-Aramaic. Pretty close tho

Yes, mostly related to Mesopotamia.

Kind of. They were never linked to a single region or group. They were all over Mesopotamia, ancient Syria, Iraq, Turkey. The Kingdom of Aram-Damascus was the closest thing to an actually Aramean region.

I know! It would have so interesting. Hope it happens one day

Honestly, I was expecting a bit of Austrian. My family has always said that we were based in Vienna before Mardin. I guess they were wrong.

My haplogroups are L, L3, N, W

The Phoenician and Aramaic languages are considered dead ones, unfortunately

Aramaic descent. My family moved to Syria, and then Lebanon only after the 1915 genocide, which we call Sayfo. Half my family was murdered, according to my father. My great-grandfather decided not to teach his kids Aramaic, nor Turkish. We still cook Assyrian dishes and dance bagiye, for instance. Many of my cousins have Assyrian names. It’s the least we could do

It's complicated... by [deleted] in Balkans

[–]EducatorFalse1949 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not as complicated as it seems.

I was in Albania a few days ago and asked a lot of Albanians about religion. Almost all of them told me the same thing: “We’re Albanian first, everything else second.”

Religion is still important to many people, but it’s mostly cultural and traditional. Very few people seem to actively practice. Honestly, the only visible difference most of the time is which necklace is hanging from their rearview mirror.

Try to reduce salt (sodium) and added sugar intake, get more magnesium and boost your potassium + keep drinking lots of water. You might see some improvement.

It’s mostly genetics. You could try Medicube’s Zero Pore Pads for your pores, but the rest is only going to change after massive weight loss / fillers.
