Ts is the Ashkenazi pronunciation of צ in Iraqi Hebrew it's pronounced ṣ like Arabic ص.

He did not pronounce every mobile sheva. Is that indeed the case in the Iraqi Jewish pronunciation of Hebrew (if so, what are the rules for pronunciation and non-pronunciation?) OR has his pronunciation been influenced by Israeli Hebrew pronunciation (where, under the influence of Ashkenazic Hebrew and of Yidish, most instances of mobile sheva are not pronounced)?
By hearing this, one could easily tell that this is what the original Hebrew sounded like before foreign influences. Sounds are harsh like Arabic as it should be.
I think this one is nearer the Biblical or Mishnaic Hebrew than the Israeli accent. The th sound as the pronunciation of ת, for instance, probably matches the Late Biblical Hebrew pronunciation (in the cases where the tav carries no dagesh). That's why θέατρον became תיאטרון in Hebrew, for example. And why ת is pronounced /s/ in some cases (the dageshless cases) in Ashkenazi Hebrew and Yiddish, as in שבת, for example.

@@cejannuzi 1.do you speak Hebrew or Yiddish? 2. Have you done research or something that make you think that you know better about Hebrew than linguists and Hebrew speakers?
@@cejannuzi The argument for that theory is about as strong as the one that claims Turkish, Japanese and Finnish are genetically related. Do you believe that too? Also, afaik phonology isn't really relevant to the relexification theory. It would be pretty amusing if it were, since the whole thrust of that theory is that things like lexicon are "superficial" and easy to change while the real "meat" of the language lies in things like syntax. Yet, phonology in this sense is about as superficial as you can get. Listen to how languages like Texas German or Louisiana French sound. Or just listen to how (at least most) heritage speakers speak their respective heritage languages (e.g. look up the Syrian Arabic wikitongues video with the Syrian-American guy). Besides, one of the most common complaints about Modern Hebrew phonology is the pronunciation of "Resh", which probably does come from Yiddish. But since the claim of that argument is that Yiddish is "a relexified Slavic language", why would the uvular realization of the rhotic be so prevalent in Yiddish, when essentially all Slavic (as well all other non-Slavic Eastern European) languages use alveolar rhotics?
@@adamyitzhak9907 I know because I am a Hebrew speaker and have no problem understanding and speaking with Iraqi Jews, and can speak like this just by changing my pronunciation a little. I studied Iraqi music and piyutim, so I'm familiar with the culture and I knew and know Iraqis who were born there, some closely, and I can assure you this is just Hebrew with a specific accent. What they DO have though is a unique dialect of Arabic called Judeo-Iraqi Arabic (actually there are even some variations there between Baghdad/northern Iraq).

The original 'Hebrews' came out of the Levant. Then Persia really became the center of Judaism. Then later, Central and Eastern Europe became the center of Judaism.
Hebrew is a Semitic language, meaning that it was carried through Shem. YHWH, the God of the Bible, spoke to the Israelites. Not the Europeans or those from Japheth. The Israelites did have some loan words, but they were mostly from Semitic languages. Arabic and Hebrew are both Semitic, because they came from Shem. However, the modern Israeli inhabitants came from Europe - converted Jews, of Ashkenaz and ultimately Japheth, not Shem. These European Jews failed multiple correct pronunciations, yet their faulty way is considered Modern Standard Hebrew. Also, begad kefet (the dot system) did not originally exist in Biblical Hebrew. It is a relatively new invention created by the rabbis which partitioned and split many letters, which was overall unnecessary other than to make pronunciation easier for newcomers to the language. In my opinion, I would say that a Semitic accent or pronunciation - such as Arabic, Yemeni, Iraqi - would be preferable than a European one. Hebrew is Semitic, and might as well lean on your own kind than a foreign supplanter. Whether or not you disagree, may Yah bless you and I hope you find what I say a little interesting. But Yah bless you!

It is really Indo-European Yiddish relexified on those word lists. That is why phonologically speaking modern Israeli is nothing much like actual ancient Hebrew.
@@cejannuzi 1.do you speak Hebrew or Yiddish?
2. Have you done research or something that make you think that you know better about Hebrew than linguists and Hebrew speakers?
True
@@cejannuzi The argument for that theory is about as strong as the one that claims Turkish, Japanese and Finnish are genetically related. Do you believe that too?
Also, afaik phonology isn't really relevant to the relexification theory. It would be pretty amusing if it were, since the whole thrust of that theory is that things like lexicon are "superficial" and easy to change while the real "meat" of the language lies in things like syntax. Yet, phonology in this sense is about as superficial as you can get. Listen to how languages like Texas German or Louisiana French sound. Or just listen to how (at least most) heritage speakers speak their respective heritage languages (e.g. look up the Syrian Arabic wikitongues video with the Syrian-American guy). Besides, one of the most common complaints about Modern Hebrew phonology is the pronunciation of "Resh", which probably does come from Yiddish. But since the claim of that argument is that Yiddish is "a relexified Slavic language", why would the uvular realization of the rhotic be so prevalent in Yiddish, when essentially all Slavic (as well all other non-Slavic Eastern European) languages use alveolar rhotics?

Not really
But this is only the iraqi accent, the language he is using is still modern Hebrew (except for the biblical quote he read) :/
If this language is still spoken, I would definitely wanna learn it.
Does anyone speak this?
My grandpa
We were speaking this at my Synagogue earlier today. Its a Mizrahi community.
This is just an accent, not a dialect nor a language.
How do you know?
True
@@adamyitzhak9907 I know because I am a Hebrew speaker and have no problem understanding and speaking with Iraqi Jews, and can speak like this just by changing my pronunciation a little. I studied Iraqi music and piyutim, so I'm familiar with the culture and I knew and know Iraqis who were born there, some closely, and I can assure you this is just Hebrew with a specific accent. What they DO have though is a unique dialect of Arabic called Judeo-Iraqi Arabic (actually there are even some variations there between Baghdad/northern Iraq).

Iraq as a "state" did not exist. Different peoples lived and ruled in Mesopotamia

The original 'Hebrews' came out of the Levant. Then Persia really became the center of Judaism. Then later, Central and Eastern Europe became the center of Judaism.
Hebrew is a Semitic language, meaning that it was carried through Shem. YHWH, the God of the Bible, spoke to the Israelites. Not the Europeans or those from Japheth. The Israelites did have some loan words, but they were mostly from Semitic languages. Arabic and Hebrew are both Semitic, because they came from Shem.
However, the modern Israeli inhabitants came from Europe - converted Jews, of Ashkenaz and ultimately Japheth, not Shem. These European Jews failed multiple correct pronunciations, yet their faulty way is considered Modern Standard Hebrew.
Also, begad kefet (the dot system) did not originally exist in Biblical Hebrew. It is a relatively new invention created by the rabbis which partitioned and split many letters, which was overall unnecessary other than to make pronunciation easier for newcomers to the language.
In my opinion, I would say that a Semitic accent or pronunciation - such as Arabic, Yemeni, Iraqi - would be preferable than a European one. Hebrew is Semitic, and might as well lean on your own kind than a foreign supplanter.
Whether or not you disagree, may Yah bless you and I hope you find what I say a little interesting. But Yah bless you!
You need to take your pills
Truth. Zionists won't accept your views tho thru their yt supremacist lenses, they're just in the middle east for the land and resources.
We mizrahi jews are Arabs/Semites not westerners.
Next conlang is unifon language

😂
Real Hebrew, not the fake European pronunciation
Sounds like an Arab speaking Hebrew.
This Hebrew is true Hebrew
The modern Hebrew
Is language developed by Yiddish scholars
@@iraqi7978 The guy in the video was speaking modern Hebrew too. You are talking about the modern israeli *accent*. Not the modern Hebrew *language*...
@@iraqi7978 and most yiddish speakers had russian & slavic accents... not german.
It is extremely inaccurate

Wrong Country.
How do I say Jews in my Hebrew self:
Yahudim - Jews
Yahudit - Jewish
