Census
The Jewish community of Hamadan in Iran used a distinctive Central Plateau Iranian language substantially different from the standard Persian spoken in Iran. Even before the 1979 Revolution, many Jews from Hamedan had left for Teheran, and now most are in Israel, Los Angeles, or (to a lesser extent) Great Neck, Forest Hills, and Kew Gardens. Few now speak it on a daily basis, but some remember and can understand the language.

An urban language map

Welcome to Languages of New York City, a free and interactive digital map of the world’s most linguistically diverse metropolitan area.

All data, unless otherwise specified, is from the Endangered Language Alliance (ELA), based on information from communities, speakers, and other sources.

The map is a work in progress and a partial snapshot, focused on significant sites for Indigenous, minority, and endangered languages. Larger languages are represented selectively. To protect the privacy of speakers, some locations are slightly altered. Social media users, note that LANGUAGEMAP.NYC works best in a separate browser. We apologize that the map may not be fully accessible to all users, including the visually impaired.

This map was created by the Mapping Linguistic Diversity team, with core support from the Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies and the Endangered Language Alliance. Please send feedback!

By continuing I acknowledge that I have read and accept the above information.
