vava Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 mosjan, if we're speaking about english, there's no such word as 'sharm'. Charm is a word, and here is the definition: 1. The power or quality of pleasing or delighting; attractiveness: a breezy tropical setting of great charm. 2. A particular quality that attracts; a delightful characteristic: A mischievous grin was among the child's many charms. 3. A small ornament, such as one worn on a bracelet. 4. An item worn for its supposed magical benefit, as in warding off evil; an amulet. 5. An action or formula thought to have magical power. 6. The chanting of a magic word or verse; incantation.

Maral Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Maybe the French pronounciation of Charm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harut Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Movses, i would suggest contacting Sharm TV Station (studio, company, whatever) in Armenia and asking where they've gotten their name from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasun Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 Movses, i would suggest contacting Sharm TV Station (studio, company, whatever) in Armenia and asking where they've gotten their name from. It's a Russian acronym "show armianskikh muzhchin". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nairi Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 It's a Russian acronym "show armianskikh muzhchin". Finally I know what that damn word stands for! As for sharm in an Armenian context, could it mean finely ground (as in from grind)? Or placed in this context, a fine, refined, dainty, delicate (?) etc. man? I'm thinking of "sharmagh"...

Arpa Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 (edited) it was like thsi Sharmov Mard er / Qaylvatsq@ / Sharj & dzev@ / Boy Busathov he was a man with Sharm From the context above it most likely that the word is being used with the French pronunciation of "charm". Finally I know what that damn word stands for! As for sharm in an Armenian context, could it mean finely ground (as in from grind)? Or placed in this context, a fine, refined, dainty, delicate (?) etc. man? I'm thinking of "sharmagh"... Is there not a song that goes "Sharmagh aghckik, tukh mazov aghchik..."? Even though the primary meaning of sharmagh is "fine sieve" based on "magh", it is also used to mean beautiful. However judging from the fact that my Pers-Eng dictionary defines "sharm" as (shame) and, to suit this case it is also defined as "modest". Sharmagh in Armenian may have been based on the latter to mean modest/amotkhats, demure, hence beautiful. Btw sharmagh is also used as a personal name, I'm not sure if masculine or feminine. Edit: From the dictionary of Armenian names, feminine. "SHARMAGH From Armenian sharmagh "sieve" or "beautiful" which symbolizes whiteness of skin often met in songs. It is in use now."
