Do you go back to your homeland, or you stay with the majority? i stated this many times already. yes, i want to go back as soon as i'm done with my education. i'm watching closly what is going on in Armenian economy and especially in those areas that i study. i have some friends there who constantly inform me about the progress and "drutyun" in those area. some say when i graduate there would be a lot of high-paying offers and i won't turn them down and would stay here for the rest of my life in hope of returning Armenia one day. but i don't believe in this. if i want to go back i WILL.
Garo jan, i got all sorts of Armenian fonts, including the once you offer. i can read in Armenian everything on internet, even that Foregin Ministry thing in News Forum. but still i can see anything in this topic.

if Armenians were to return to their homeland, then they would first return to current Rebuplic of Armenia. like MJ said, even if Armenia gets all the lands of The Greater Hayk, i doubt that majority would return. they would celebrate it. they would visit it. but very few would return.

a lot of people have been a great help already. i haven't learned the lesson dragon was trying to teach really. but i still have one more request, if you allow. i again need to interview somebody. this time a person who considers him/herself to be a LEADER. can anyone help, please???
some translations from Russian. "rabota ne volk, v lec' ne ubejit. work is not a wolf, it won't ran to forest" "dayut beri, byut begi. they give take it, they hit ran"
it is Akhtamar in Armenian. if i'm not mistaken, Urartian was Semitic language. it is correct(as far as i know) that they called their county "Biaynilli", and their capital "Tushpa". again as far as i know, the name Van originated in 7-6 BC when Indo-European languages started to domitate in the region. and already at the time of Yervandians(one of the first true Armenian dynasties) it was popularly known as Van. the word "vank" is now mainly used as the word "yekeghetsi"(church). it is true that it is part of many city/villege names in Armenian. but i don't know whether it comes from the word "van" or it means villege.

MJ and Dragon, thanks for info, but i knew that since grade school. i just wanted to know what they mean. like my name for instanse. dragon, i never noticed that coensidence with Diana and Anahit. or is it not a coensidence???
MJ, don't be surprised. it was pretty much excpectable from what is going on since last decade. it's just that you never guess the exact date and get scaried when it happens. but of coure we all wish it never happened.
