Guys im confused
Madhankhaya(east) which is spoken in Iraq and Iran and Magarbaya(west) is mostly spoken in Syria and Turkey. (Magarbaya/Magarboyo is also called Suryoyo.)
So where does Chaldean fall into?
P.S this is not to start an argument I am really curious.

The best thing to do is try to find someone who speaks east assyrian and try practising with him the east assyrian ... If you don't have people around you who can help you try to get someone on msn who is willing to help you with it (by mic)?
Maybe these sites can be usefull for you? ...

shneeli min ghikh'ka = "I fainted from laughing" - or like we say in English, basically, I died laughing".
atin har too joo beeta = "Just keep sitting at home" - it is probably used sarcastically, like if someone kept talking about "Raising Atour" but didn't do anything other than write on forums all day, you might say "Atin har too joo beta".

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww.............. :bigarmhug:
When something is "pakha/pakhta" it means it is salt-less. Salem is saying his "shneelee min gikhka" was "salt-less", or had no "flavor", because you didn't understand it: "Weela pakhta hatkha" = "It became saltless like this".
I don't want for a female: "Lay bayan".

Awwww...thank you!!!
I like translating, and it's my last day of work until a 4 day holiday, so here:
I told you so (I am sure there are many ways, but here's one):
"La mirree qatukh(m) qatakh(f)?"
La mirree = Didn't I say
qatukh/qatakh = to you
You are crazy (again, several ways, I'll give one):
"At sheedanet(m) sheedantet(m)" - this is truly calling someone crazy - it isn't very nice sounding in Assyrian though.
If you want to be sarcastic/funny and call someone crazy:
"Shuddinet?" (m) which literally means "Have you gone mad?" Shudinna = one who has gone mad, ewit = you are, so put together they make: "Shudinnet?" - thi sis for male. For femal, "et" becomes "at'.
Does that make sense??
