Its linguistic lineage stems from the Hellenistic Koine (Ελληνική Κοινή) and includes Hebrew elements as well. It was mutually intelligible with Greek of the Christian population. The Romaniotes used their version of the Hebrew alphabet to write Greek and Yevanic texts.<br /> The name &quot;Yevanic&quot; stems from the Biblical word Yāwān, a cognate of forms, such as Sanskrit Yavana, that were used among ancient Aryan and Near Eastern cultures to refer to the Greeks and the lands that the Greeks inhabited. This term derived from an overextension of the Greek word Ἰωνία (Ionia in English) from the (then) easternmost Greeks to all Greeks.<br /> There are no longer any native speakers of Yevanic, for the following reasons:&lt;i&gt;[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=987165 ..... full article at Wikipedia]&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Location of Yevanic language Speakers&lt;/h2&gt;<br /> http://llmap.org/languages/yej/static_map.png?width=400&amp;height=300&amp;kilroywashere=.png<br /> &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> &lt;/table&gt;<br /> &lt;/td&gt;<br /> &lt;td valign=top align=right&gt; <br /> &lt;table valign=top&gt;<br /> &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;table&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;h2&gt;Overview&lt;/h2&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Main Country: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;[http://www.freebase.com/view/en/israel Israel]&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Spoken In: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Regions: &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;[http:///www.freebase.com/view/en/asia Asia] <br /> &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;ISO 639-3 Code: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;yej&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;/table&gt;<br /> &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Classification Taxonomy&lt;/h2&gt;<br /> [[All Languages]]<br /> <br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;[[Indo-European Group]]<br /> <br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;[[Greek Group]]<br /> <br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;[[Attic Group]]<br /> <br /> &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;[[Yevanic language]]&lt;/b&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;<br /> &lt;/table&gt;<br /> &lt;/td&gt;<br /> &lt;/tr&gt;<br /> &lt;/table&gt;<br /> <br /> __NOTOC__</div>
