Aramaic is spoken by some Assyrian, Chaldean, and Syriac communities in the Middle East, mainly in Iraq, Syria, Turkey, and Iran. It is also used in some religious rituals by certain Christian denominations. Additionally, some small Jewish communities continue to use Aramaic for religious purposes.
