Does the name “Lashon haKodesh” imply that it is the only holy language?

Are you looking for the truth or for the answer that people need to support their already-in-place beliefs?

It is holy because there are no dirty words e.g. ביאה and it has hidden meanings same as איבה.

The mishneh starts מאימתי which is targum because in loshan hakodesh should have been ממתי teaching us that it starts in a language that the malochim don’t understand or care about and Hashem is with us when we learn.

yes! the ONLY holy language.
The insertion of some Aramaic does not make the LANGUAGE holy, only the particular insertion is holy because it is part of the holy Torah. So too the Sefer of Daniel is holy because it is part of Tanach, but not that the language per se becomes holy. I believe that years ago I was told that in Yirmiyahu there is a Babylonian word
inserted somewhere. If true, does that make Babylonian holy??????
Yiddish is our special adopted language – I hope it never dies out amongst our people – I speak it fairly fluently – but it cannot be called HOLY in the same sense as LASHON KODESH!! Just like an adopted child is not called the zera of his new parents, even if they call him “our son.”

It is also important to note, that Hebrew is not called Hebrew anywhere in Tanach, or Ivrit. It is called Yehudit (see Melachim 2, 18:26. And note in the same place that the Jews didn’t speak Aramiac at that time).
And although some claim it is called lashon hakodesh because it contains no foul words, well for one thing it does, as in the expression עבודת גלולים, which means “dung worship”. What Rambam says is that it contains no words that are directly related to marital relations or to those parts of the body used for marital relations.

But more likely it called the holy tongue because God used it, so to speak, to create the world, and God is called Kadosh.

“But more likely it called the holy tongue because God used it, so to speak, to create the world, and God is called Kadosh.”

If I understand it correctly, this is what the Ramban in Sefer Shmos, Perek Lamed Passuk Yud Gimmel says is the reason it is called Lashon HaKodesh.

“The “no dirty words” reason sounds like something they would teach to 8-year-old’s.”

This is the reason given by the Rambam in Moreh Nevuchim as quoted by the Ramban. See the Ramban in Sefer Shmos, Perek Lamed – Passuk Yud Gimmel.

I’m already involved in one of these silly discussions so I will stay out of this one.

(the reason why I say it is silly, is becasue for reasons I am still trying to wrap my head around one side is ptiing words into the other’s mouth for example “but it cannot be called HOLY in the same sense as LASHON KODESH!!”)

Laskern I dont; understand
“החדש הזה לכם ראש חדשים ראשון הוא לכם לחדשי השנה adds up to 2658 just as

כמה תשעה ועשרים ומחצה יום ותשצג חלקים indicating the time of the molad”
I’ll take your word that it equal 2658, but I dont understand the significance of 2658

Never mind Laskern
I got it.
I couldnt figure out why כמה was in there, I see you need it to make it fit. I though the 2658 somehow represented 29/12/793 which wouldve been more interesting
Seems obvious now, sorry for the question
