The Armenian language (hayeren) is an Indo-European language spoken by the Armenians. It is the official language of the Republic
of Armenia and the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. The language is also widely spoken by Armenian communities in the Armenian diaspora.
It has its own script, the Armenian alphabet, and is of interest to linguists for its distinctive phonological developments
within Indo-European. Linguists classify Armenian as an independent branch of the Indo-European language family. Armenian
shares a number of major innovations with Greek, and some linguists group these two languages together with Phrygian and the
Indo-Iranian family into a higher-level subgroup of Indo-European which is defined by such shared innovations as the augment.
More recently, others have proposed a Balkan grouping including Greek, Armenian, Phrygian and Albanian. Armenian has a long
literary history, with a fifth-century Bible translation as its oldest surviving text. Its vocabulary has been heavily influenced
by Western Middle Iranian languages, particularly Parthian, and to a lesser extent by Greek, Latin, Old French, Persian, Arabic,
Turkish, and other languages throughout its history. There are two standardized modern literary forms, Eastern Armenian and
Western Armenian, with which most contemporary dialects are mutually intelligible. The divergent and almost extinct Lomavren
language is a Romani-influenced dialect with an Armenian grammar and a largely Romani-derived vocabulary, including Romani
numbers. |
