So, there are a bunch of songs on here that are listed as Aramaic (Syriac Classical) - but really are not. They have similarities - but not only are they not the same language they aren't in the same alphabet (ܐܪܡܝܐ VS ארמית).
Because there is not a category for Babylonian Jewish Aramaic. Or even just Aramaic - other ... would work, there is also Neo-Aramaic - which also written with the same (as Babylonian Jewish Aramaic and Hebrew and Yiddish and Ladino, etc.) script (that is not Syriac),

as you can see:
https://lyricstranslate.com/en/language/aramaic-syriac-classical

more than half of those listed aren't even Syriac - and i'm sure there are others on the site listed as Hebrew because the uploader didn't know how else to list it or couldn't tell by the text if it was Hebrew or Aramaic - they knew it wasn't Syriac!

Is there a possibility of this getting added?

If my recollection of the rules are right, if we have three or more songs in a language, it's enough for the language to be added. So in this case, I'd say we can add the language. Any mods, please feel free to chime in.

Yeah, that's it. But we also extend that to translations as well (I mean, we could have 0 lyrics and 10 translations in that language, it suffices). We need to have some content, regardless of type, in said language, so we can ask for it to be added.
