Shlama

"Shlama" is a greeting used in Aramaic, meaning "peace." It’s similar to saying "hello" or "peace be upon you" in English. Commonly used among Assyrian and Chaldean communities, it reflects a wish for peace, well-being, and harmony. The term symbolizes goodwill and respect, emphasizing positive relationships and harmony among individuals. While rooted in ancient language, it remains a meaningful part of cultural and religious expressions today.
