Particular features:
It is the only language belonging to the homonymous branch of the Indo-European family, from which it draws the roots of its words, whereas its phonetics are more influenced by the nearby Caucasian languages. As there do not appear to be any languages closely related to Armenian, this is regarded by some as a close relative of Phrygian. Armenian is historically divided into two dialects: Eastern Armenian, spoken in the modern day Armenian Republic, and Western Armenian, spoken in Anatolia. Following the Armenian genocide, the western dialect disappeared from Anatolia and remained in use with the Armenians of the Diaspora alone. Among modern languages, Greek is the closest to Armenian, which however borrows many terms from Persian. Armenian is written using the homonymous alphabet, created in 406 A.C. by Mesrop Mashtots and still used today with the addition of just two letters. As from the 5th century, Armenian literature began to be written in classical Armenian or Grabar, which remained the language of culture (while evolving considerably) until the 9th century. With time the spoken and written language evolved independently and, following political and geographical divisions, numerous dialects come into being, often so different as to be mutually incomprehensible.
