This is a video of Farid's bestest friend, Simo Parpola. Toward the end of the video (the best part), you can see Parpola speak in Ancient Assyrian.

Assyrians say that this language was extrememly powerful. The Urmia dialect of Assyrian which almost all Assyrians have conformed to and now speak (and which idiots call "leshana khata") is the closest to this ancient dialect. It employs a similar grammatical structure and syntax.

KHAYA ASHUR, kids. It will happen whether you people like it or not.
