The Assyrian Language

• Assyrian Neo-Aramaic is a modern version of the ancient Aramaic language, which was once widely spoken across the Near East.
• It is primarily spoken by the Assyrian people, an ethnic minority originating from regions now part of Iraq, Turkey, Iran, and Syria.
• Assyrian uses the Syriac script, a derivative of the Aramaic alphabet, and faces challenges of diminishing fluency among younger generations.

About Ellen Grove

Ellen Grove is an outer suburb of Brisbane, Australia and is located 20 kilometres (12 mi) south-west of the Brisbane CBD. Ellen Grove was subdivided for housing around 1959, with the name of the suburb gazetted in 1962 due to lobbying from the Ellen Grove Progress Association. The subdivision were between two and four acres in area with no services provided. In 2009, the suburb was extended both to the north and south, increasing the population significantly from 351 to 5,209 people. At the 2011 Australian Census the population was recorded as 2,529. The owner of the original land was R.P. Spinks who had a daughter named Ellen Dabing. She often played with local aboriginals in a groove of trees along Bullockhead Creek. The area became known as Ellen's Grove.
