Romanization of modern Syriac script (2011)
bgnpcgn-syr-Syrc-Latn-2011 The modern Syriac script is used today by Assyrian writers of the neo-Aramaic language. This Romanization System may be applied to any toponyms written in this script as may be encountered in parts of northern Iraq, Syria, northern Iran and eastern Turkey. The Neo-Aramaic language has a degree of locally official status within Iraq, and accordingly some bilingual Arabic and modern Syriac signage may be encountered. The script is closely aligned to that of both Hebrew and Arabic, and, as these, is written from right to left. In this Romanization System, 'strong' consonants have been marked with a sub-dot so as not to give a closer visual relation to either Arabic (which marks such consonants with a cedilla) or Hebrew (which marks these with an underbar). The equivalences where they exist in the Arabic and Hebrew scripts have also been shown only for a guide to the cognate root.
