Tommy Isho runs a face book page called Assyrian language. He posts periodically pages that illustrate words accompanies by pictures to show the Assyrian vocabulary.


Tommy Isho is a Syrian born Assyrian who lives in Sweden, where he works as a nurse. Isho is also a passionate advocate for the preservation of the Assyrian language. He runs a Facebook and Instagram page, where he regularly makes Assyrian language posts on vocabulary and grammar. His posts are illustrated by diagrams with Assyrian, Arabic, English and Ancient Assyrian (Cuneiform) language translations. For even more accessibility, Isho creates videos spoken in the Assyrian language for audiences who do not read Assyrian. 

He aims to expose lesser known Assyrian words and terms for use in daily life to his audience, with the hopes of expanding the Assyrian people's vocabulary.
