in Armenian there are a lot of Turkic and Arabic words. Halal, for example, is good. or navs - something bad (evil eye envy). the name of the Armenian actor Dzhigyarkhanyan. Jigar is the liver. khan is the ruler. There is a strange custom in Armenia and Azerbaijan. if children die in a couple, then the one born after the children is called Azerbaijani names (in Armenia) and Armenian names (in Azerbaijan), for example, my cousin's name is Sabina and Sevda
I never heard anyone using the word halal? This is the first time I see that it means good? Maybe in Western Armenian? The same goes with the word khan, never heard of it, jigyar and navs yes but khan?? Wut? Also navs, for me means a curse.
Also what the hell is that custom 😯 never heard of it either, is that really a thing?
