    A sacred language, holy language, or liturgical language is any language that is cultivated and used primarily in church service or for other religious reasons by people who speak another, primary language in their daily lives. A sacred language is often the language which was spoken and written in the society in which a religion's sacred texts were first set down; these texts thereafter become fixed and holy, remaining frozen and immune to later linguistic developments.

    Cool. Just one correction - Mandarin isn't really a liturgical language. The liturgical language of Confucianism is Classical Chinese, which doesn't have a generally accepted pronunciation - it can be read with a Mandarin pronunciation, as it is here, but also with a Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese or dialectal Chinese pronunciation. There's a reconstructed pronunciation, too, but it is not used liturgically (and there are still a lot of disagreements and different versions of what it must have been like).

      Yea, Mandarin didn't even exit yet during Confucius time. Nobody regard mandarin to be liturgical. In fact mandarin is much more distant from classical Chinese compared to other dialects, as the area of Beijing was on the borders far from the core during that time

      Theres a lot of research that shows what and how they spoke... saying korean or Vietnamese doesn't really make much sense, especially not Vietnamese since the flow of Languages is reverse. Viet is 33% mandarin and another 33% cantonese with the rest being a whole lot of traditional and other things.
      Not only that, but one of my professors is a descendant of Confucius and is one of the fewwwww people allowed to show familial love (like hugs) on his statues. She knows how "grandpa" spoke because her family has been preserving this information since.

      @@victorb976 Syriac and Aramaic are the same. Formerly it was actually called "Syrian" in English, but to avoid further confusion with the modern Arab-Muslim state Syria, the indigenous Syrian Christian communities of the Middle-East changed it into "Syriac". Both terms (Aramaic; Syriac) are interchangeable and refer to the exact same language similar to the case of "Castellano" (Castilian) aka "Español" (Spanish). When the Arameans converted to Christianity, they adopted the Greek term "Surioi" into their Aramaic language to distinguish themselves from the pagan Arameans thus Aram became "Syria" and the Arameans became "Syrians" and vice-versa. However, since the majority of Neo-Aramaic native speakers prefer to call their dialects "Syriac", linguists clearly distinguish them by rather calling them, e. g. "Turoyo Neo-Aramaic", "Chaldean Neo-Aramaic", "Western Neo-Aramaic" etc., while the term "Syriac" is mostly reserved for the liturgical Aramaic dialect shown in the video, which produced the most Aramaic literature and is the best documented dialect hence "Classical Syriac".

Two confusions. The first is in language. People thinking words like Syriac, Arabic, and Turkic can refer to people, but traditionally they have a more limited meaning especially relating to their languages. The second is cultural. The idea that Syrian should not be said because there is the Syrian Arab Republic is highly questionable, it only goes to show how modern people see politics as the central aspect of society. If the Syrian Orthodox church does not like that I don't say Syriac Orthodox church, we can always go back to Jacobite.

      Makes sense since it was kind of the bridge between Proto-Slavic and Common Slavic, being the first Slavic literary language and was made and used for the Christianization of the Slavs. It's supposed to be based off the dialects that were spoken around Thessalonica (modern day west/central Macedonia in Greece), as well as more-or-less the rest of the historical Greater Macedonia area and west Bulgaria.

      It requires the reader to know which letters are sun or moon letters. So already, it requires some knowledge of Arabic. It's already inaccessible to newcomers.
      I don't like having 'Sin, Syin, Ṣad, Ḍad, Ṭa, Ẓa." The "Ẓa" is out of place when it could have been another variation of "d", considering it sounds more like a "d" than a "z". I get it though, because "dhal" is "Żal". I just don't like it.
      The penulisan alternatif is horrible, and it seems to be more standard than the proper transliteration, because nobody knows how to write those accented letters. Every time I have been to Indonesia I have seen words like "Mushalla" instead of "muṣalla". It's ugly with letters like "ts" "dz" "zh" and most of the letters that look familiar, like "dh", "th", "sh", "dh" correspond to completely different letters than every other transliteration. I also don't like transliterations that have such similar ways of writing 'ayin' and 'hamza'. Who notices the difference between ‘ and ’ or ` and ' easily?

    I find it interesting how almost all Christian Prayers have a variation of "Amen" at the end. Greek didn't have it, it seems, but maybe there's a variation that does? As for the rest it does make a little sense, given how even when people pray in their native language they use it as well. Regardless, it's still is interesting how that word spread so far, even in Ge'ez.

    In terms of sounds , Syriac is closer to Arabic (And even arabic and Coptic)
    Of course, there are different ways of reading the Qur'an and supplications(in arabic)

    The liturgical language that I love the most is Sanskrit, the language of my own religion, Hinduism. After Sanskrit, My second most favourite is Arabic, the language of Islam, the second most prominent religion of our country, then comes Latin, the language of Christianity, the third most prominent religion.
    Tibetan is also awesome..... the language of the Himalayan Buddhists....

    As a Serb, I can almost understand all of the Old Church Slavonic. I guess that is because it originated from the old South Slavic language, and Serbian also descended from the South Slavic language

    Old Church Slavonic is essentially Old Bulgarian. The Cyrillic was created the first Bulgarian empire and it’s purpose was to Christianise the Slavs in the Byzantine empire through translating the Bible into a Slavic language (Old Bulgarian). It then started spreading to the rest of Eastern Europe with countries accepting Christianity along with the Cyrillic it was written in. That’s also around the same time that the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches split - hence why most orthodox countries use the Cyrillic and most catholic countries use the Latin alphabet.

      Old church slavonic is now mix of Serbian, Bulgarian and Russian because of Ottoman occupation. During fall of Second Bulgarian empire Serbian emperor merged and put many Serbian and Greek words in old church Slavonic.
      During Ottomans occupation Russians did that.
      Today it is mix of that three languages, if you don't believe me ask any orthodox priest.
      Second cyrillic was made by Greeks not by Bulgarians, location was Bulgarian empire but it was made by Greeks based on Greek alphabet and Slavic words from Balkan and Eastern Europe.

      @@simargl614 I’m not talking about Old Church Slavonic “now”, I’m talking about the original 9th century one, which was based on Old Bulgarian and which was used to translate the Bible to.
      Secondly, you seem to be confusing the Glagolitic and Cyrillic alphabets. The Glagolitic was created, indeed, by Cyril and Methodius in the 9th century and was heavily based on Greek. The Cyrillic, was created in the Preslav Literary School by Bulgarian disciples of Cyril and Methodius and was based on the Glagolitic, which it replaced. They named it “Cyrillic” in honour of Cyril - hence the popular confusion that Cyril and Methodius created the Cyrillic, when in fact it was the Glagolitic that they created.
