---- Professors Dr. Otto Jastrow and Shabo Talay are planning a Toroyo Assyrian Language Dictionary Project Nov. 16, 06 Professor Shabo Talay in traditional Assyrian costume Recently Dr Shabo Talay received the title of "Professor" in Semitic and Arabic studies in Germany. The PhD thesis he defended dealt with the Aramaic dialects of the Assyrians of northern Syria. Dr. Talay was born in 1968 in Turkey. He emigrated to Germany when he was 10. He entered Heidelberg University in Germany to undertake Semitic Studies, Assyriology and Islamic sciences. In 1994 he began his dissertation studies on the subject of the Arabic dialect of Khatuniya in northeast Syria. Dr. Talay studies Assyriology under Professor Deller, who recommended a concentration in the Semitic studies instead. Dr. Talay married Riem Hanna in 1993 and have two children. In April 1997 Dr. Talay delivered his thesis and began studying the Assyrians of the Khabour River region in Syria. Since February 2001, Dr. Talay has been working as an associate professor with Professor Dr. Otto Jastrow. Together they have begun planning the Toroyo Language Dictionary Project at Heidelberg. If approved by the German Research Council this five-year project will result in the most comprehensive study of the Western Assyrian language, both literary (leshana saapraya OR kthobonoyo) and dialectic.
