Mirian Syriac (lišōnā Suryāyā d-Mirya) is a Syriac dialect that is used as the liturgical language in the Mirian Church of the East. It diverged from the common Syriac tongue during the early third millennium AD, and is directly descended from the Syriac spoken by the Christians on the Malabar Coast of southwestern India. The language is currently used in the Hawaiian Islands as a result of the most recent branch of the Assyrian diaspora. It is the easternmost portion of Aramaic languages. Native to: Kerala, India; Hawaiian Islands Writing system: Mirian Syriac abjad
