It means please.

[sev-mard]

I have heard that before~ Thanks Domino, hmmm, might be a loan word? Is it originally armenian?

[Azat]

I don't know Sev-mart. I was told yesterday that it comes from hajeli(Armenian for pleasing) but I was not sure. I always had assumed that it was a Persian or Arabic word, but what I was told yesterday made sense to me.

What I can say is that I would be very surprised it could be an arabic word(it isen't in my limited arabic vocabulary, neither any arabs I acountered, they have a different word to say please), I'm pretty sure it isen't an arabic word. If it isen't Armenian could be Persian, never know, but I always thought that it was an Armenian word.

BTW Azat, I drop of laughter on the floor when i have seen your new avatar(I'm not jocking).

That sounds true. Hajieli...hmm. You might be right. It's all new learning to me so i'm just doing what I can.

Azat
i might be wrong, but i think that, yes, it is from the word հաճոյել [ha&oyel]/[hajoyel] (to feel like doing, to want to do). so, the word հաճիս [ha&is]/[hajis] would mean would you feel like doing, please.

[sev-mard]

Are these words commonly used? Or more proper like?

same as saying, uzumem anel? or something to that effect?

[CheekY]

yeah it's like hajeli, hajetsnel (to please), hajo/hajoyali (pleasing, pleasant) and i guess hajis is like k'hajes...would you?
