How do you say chosen in aramaic?

The word for "chosen" in Aramaic depends on the context and the specific dialect:

* Most common: בְּחִיר (bəḥīr) - This is the most common and general word for "chosen" in Aramaic. It comes from the verb "בָּחַר (baḥar)," meaning "to choose."

* With emphasis on God's choice: מִבְחַר (mibḥar) - This word implies something "selected" or "chosen" by God, particularly in religious contexts.

Example:

* "The chosen people" could be translated as "עַמָּא בְּחִירָא (ʻammā bəḥīrā)" or "עַמָּא מִבְחַר (ʻammā mibḥar)".

Remember that Aramaic is a complex language with several dialects. While these are the most common translations, the specific pronunciation and spelling might vary depending on the dialect and region.
