gamavor Posted November 11, 2001 Report Share Posted November 11, 2001 Mehmet, "Heart" in Armenian is "Sird". If you change your nickname I will tell you more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khodja Posted November 11, 2001 Report Share Posted November 11, 2001 Gamavor, Yes, I know that Heart is "Sird," but when the odar asked for the word to use on the tatoo, I assumed that what they really wanted was "Hokee." It was a judgemet call on my part. What do you suggest that I change my nickname to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arpa Posted November 11, 2001 Report Share Posted November 11, 2001 quote:Originally posted by Harut:"hokee" would be soul or spirit.heart would be "sirt"courage would be "qajutyun", "ariutyun", "hamardzakutyun", and other things.may be other can help you to choose the right one.Hogi is soul, even though at times it may be used to mean courage just as "spirit" is."Sirt" will serve dual purpose, just as in English, and perhaps in other tongues, in the Armenian "heart/sirt" is often synonymous to courage, as in "take heart/sirt arnel". To go a step further in the English "brave heart", may be a redundancy just as the Armenian "kajasirt"or "ariasirt".

ibehary Posted November 13, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2001 So I would just change "Sirt" into armenian by using the armenian alphabet and switching them with the english ones? Sorry im just a little confused. Thanks for the replies again though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twilight Bark Posted December 5, 2001 Report Share Posted December 5, 2001 Go to www.troy.am/dictionary You can translate anything to your heart's content It will give you the Armenian word with Armenian fonts. For heart, pick the first word from the list that it returns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
