Jewish Babylonian Aramaic (Aramaic: Script error: No such module "Lang". Script error: No such module "lang".) was the form of Middle Aramaic employed by writers in Lower Mesopotamia between the fourth and eleventh centuries. It is most commonly identified with the language of the Babylonian Talmud (which was completed in the fifth century), the Targum Onqelos, and of post-Talmudic (Gaonic) literature, which are the most important cultural products of Babylonian Jews. The most important epigraphic sources for the dialect are the hundreds of inscriptions on incantation bowls.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found.
Classification and type

The language was closely related to Eastern Aramaic varieties such as Mandaic. Its original pronunciation is uncertain and has to be reconstructed with the help of these kindred dialects and the reading tradition of the Yemenite Jews,Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. and where available those of the Iraqi, Syrian and Egyptian Jews.[citation needed] The value of the Yemenite reading tradition has been challenged by Matthew Morgenstern.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. Vocalized Aramaic texts with which Jews are familiar, from the Tanakh and the siddurim, are of limited usefulness for this purpose, as they are in different dialects.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found.
Talmudic Aramaic bears all the marks of being a specialist language of study and legal argumentation like Law French[citation needed] rather than a vernacular mother tongue,[citation needed] and continued in use for these purposes long after Judeo-Arabic languages had become used in daily life. It has developed a battery of technical logic terms such as Script error: No such module "lang". "conclusive refutation" and Script error: No such module "lang". "undecidable moot point", which are still used in Jewish legal writings, including those in other languages, and have influenced modern Hebrew.[citation needed]
Like the other Judeo-Aramaic languages, it was written in the Hebrew alphabet.

Six major verbal patterns
There are six major verb stems or verbal patterns (binyanim) in Jewish Babylonian Aramaic. The form pe‘al (פְּעַל) “to do”, the form Aph'el (אַפְעֵל) “let do”, and the form Pa'el (פַּעֵל) “like to do”, are all in the active voice. But the form Itpe'el (אִתְפְּעֵל), the form Itaph'al (אִתַפְעַל) and the form Itpa'al (אִתְפַּעַל) are essentially reflexive and usually function in a passive sense.[2][3]
