Why does the article list Sumerian as a language spoken by Assyrians?
The article delves into Assyrian identity, including its formation during the Old Assyrian period (Michel 2017). During this period and after it, Akkadian is spoken e.g. Erišum I's inscription, writings from Assyrian traders in Kaneš, et cetera. There are also pre-Old Assyrian texts written in Akkadian e.g., Zarriqum 2001 from the Third Dynasty of Ur. I'm not sure of any evidence of Sumerian being natively spoken in communities by Assyrian-identifying people (OA or later), nor am I sure as to why it would be included while languages like Arabic, spoken by many Assyrians natively, aren't included.

Iraq population numbers
Recently I tried adding a valid source to the article
Its a YouTube video about an interview done with assyrian politican ano abdoka who stated that Assyrians number around 250.000-282.000
In Iraq he has official church documents and leads I tried to add the source but it didn't work for some reason
A Kurd removed a lot of sources and added an unreliable one that says assyrisns are under 200.000 vandalism Assyrian.crusader (talk) 15:22, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
