Suriston

Suriston (スリストン 語ご) (Hebrew: סוריסטון Phoenician: סוריסטון ), also known in English dub as Galilean Aramaic, is an old Western dialect of the Aramaic language which was spoken by the inhabitants of northern Judea during the time of Jesus Christ and his disciples and followers. The language saw a period of overwhelming revival in the 21st century until eventually becoming one of the official languages of the Kingdom of Earth in 2036.

History
Suriston formed as a variant of the Western Aramaic languages in the Levant around the time of Roman rule in the region. It was spoken by the people of Galilee in northern Judea, somewhat distinct from the Samaritans or the Jews from Jerusalem. Jesus and his followers spoke in this language, for He grew up and spent most of His life in Galilean towns such as Nazareth and Capernaum.

Decades after Jesus' death, in the aftermath of the failed Jewish revolts against the Romans, some Jewish communities moved to Galilee where they began to further develop the Galilean Aramaic dialect with new linguistic techniques and rules. The various versions of the Aramaic language, including Suriston, continued to be spoken by the people of the Levant, Jews, Assyrians and Christians alike, under Byzantine protection until the Arab Islamic conquests throughout the Middle East in 7th century caused almost all variants of Aramaic to die out to the point where the only surviving Western Aramaic language over a thousand years later is Western Neo-Aramaic, spoken by a few thousand people in the mountains in Syria.

In recent years, Suriston began to see a period of revival in part thanks to the fallout of the Babel War. In the aftermath of the conflict, after having met the angels of Heaven who sometimes spoke Suriston, members of the Justice Alliance were encouraged to learn this mysterious Galilean Aramaic language, which they see as the "holiest language" on Earth. Some even commented that Suriston is a more beautiful and mystical language than even Latin or Greek.

After the Underworld Legion was driven out of the surface world, the nations of the world unified to form the Holy Kingdom of Earth in 2036. The coronation of Ichirou Tachibana as King of Earth in Jerusalem was performed entirely in Suriston and the world anthem is written in the ancient language as well.

Script
During Roman times, Galilean Aramaic was written in Hebrew script along with other versions of the language that prospered in Judea. With the language's revival by the Justice Alliance, the language can now be written in two scripts: Hebrew and Phoenician, the writing that oversaw the time periods from the formation of the Ten Commandments to the rule of King David and his son Solomon.

Similar to Hebrew, Suriston is read from right to left in a single line. Also, there are 22 letters in the alphabet.

Some official Kingdom of Earth texts printed also use Phoenician script which also read Aramaic.
