Thank you for posting this! I am a writer with an interest in Mizrahi communities, particularly those in Iran. I've been trying to locate resources on Judeo-Neo-Aramaic dialects spoken in Iran and keep bumping into Yona (and Ariel) Sabar's work. As fascinating as it is, it is largely focused on Iraqi Kurdish Jews. You just gave me a name for the dialects in Iran! Thank you! I'm off to research, starting with the links here.
