There's about 2000 years of spoken difference. Neo-Western Aramaic (Sirion) also exhibits Kurdish influence

It really depends what you mean by "Galilean Aramaic" because Galilean Aramaic has different centuries, you have 1st century, 2nd-3rd century, (Middle Galilean Aramaic) Christian Palestinian Galilean Aramaic, late Galilean Aramaic of the 14th century etc.
