Armenian language<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Armenian language belongs to the Indo-European language family. The Armenian language has been influenced by contact with neighboring languages and cultures, such as Greek, Persian and Arabic. These influences can be seen in the grammar, vocabulary and phonetics of the language. There are similarities with Greek words, but also loan words from Persian. The Armenian people appear in documents as early as the 6th century BC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the Armenian language contains many different sounds, Armenians often find it easy to pronounce other European languages – there is the \u201cGerman\u201d CH, the English R, and a rolled R as in Russian or Italian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Armenia is the size of Brandenburg and has around 3 million speakers. There are countless dialects in this small mountainous country. A distinction is also made between Western and Eastern Armenian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Armenian is also spoken in the Armenian diaspora – in Russia, Lebanon, Syria, Europe and the USA. Depending on the estimate, the total number of speakers is up to 9 million. Around 100 Armenians live in Dresden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Script<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Armenian alphabet was developed around the year 405 AD by the monk and saint Mesrop Mashtoz using Latin and, above all, Greek letters. It comprises a very large number of letters, namely 39 (the German alphabet, without the umlauts \u00e4, \u00fc, \u00f6, has 26).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artistic design of letters is a deeply rooted folk tradition in Armenia. In the capital Yerevan, there is a monument made of large stone letters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Armenian schoolchildren grow up with three alphabets: At school, they learn the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
