Verse:Irta/Judeo-Mandarin: Difference between revisions

Line 986:

Formal or literary writing uses more Celtic and Semitic words; words from other Indo-European languages spoken in Apple PIE Eastern Europe are more colloquial or relate to everyday objects.

Religious terminology tends to avoid Middle Irish terms in favor of Hebrew/Aramaic terms, because Middle Irish religious terms were associated with Catholicism. For example, 'sin' is חטא ''cheyd'' (m) instead of ''**pecădh''. Newer religious terms prefer direct Latin or Greek loans: for example, the word for 'religion' is itself ''relígio'' rather than ''**cřezăv'' (Irish ''creideamh'', literally 'belief', potentially problematic because Judaism is traditionally not as focused on faith as such to the same extent as Christianity). Modern Ăn Yidiș is more willing to borrow international vocabulary than Irish.
