What "Assyrian (Sureth)" means here

About this guide · a plain-language guide to Assyrian (Sureth) grammar

The living, spoken language of the Assyrian people goes by a few names. "Assyrian" is the one most people recognize. "Sureth" (also Suret / Suray, ‏ܣܘܪܝܬ‎) is what many speakers call the everyday spoken tongue itself. Linguists call the wider family Neo-Aramaic. They're all pointing at the same thing: the language you hear at home.
