The short answer is Yes.
The dominant languages in Iraq today are Arabic and Kurdish. The dominant languages in Iran are Farsi (Persian), Azeri, Kurdish, Arabic, and Balochi.
The language of the Ancient Assyrians was Akkadian with a minority of elite also being fluent in Sumerian. Both are dead languages today. Modern Assyrians, a Christian minority in northern Iraq, speak Arabic in their day-to-day lives, but use Syriac, an nearly-dead language in liturgy.
In either case, the unique languages of the Assyrians are different than the dominant languages of Iraq and Iran.
