This work is a unique documentation of the now extinct Jewish Neo-Aramaic dialect of Challa (modern-day A+ukurca, Turkey). It is based on recordings of the last native speaker of the dialect, who passed away in 2007. In addition to a grammatical description, it contains sample texts and a glossary of the dialect.
