Eastern Aramaic:
* ܨܠܝ (ṣliy): This is the most common word for "pray" in Eastern Aramaic, used in Syriac and Assyrian. It is the equivalent of the Hebrew word "לתפלל (le-hitpallel)".
Western Aramaic:
* ܨܠܝ (ṣliy): This word is also used in Western Aramaic, though it may have some variations in pronunciation and spelling depending on the specific dialect.
Other options:
* ܒܥܝ (b'ei): This word means "to ask" or "to beg," and can be used to express the concept of praying, particularly when asking for something specific.
* ܫܡܥ (šma'): This means "to listen" and can be used in the context of prayer as "to listen to God."
It's important to note that Aramaic is a complex language with many dialects, and there may be slight variations in vocabulary and pronunciation.
