    Thanks Armenian for your ingenuity. You make us think and rethink to remember the words that we know but we don't use them everyday. Yes it was fun digging out words from the back of our brains.

    You know, you make this Forum thrive. You're good!!!

    Anoush jan, that's pretty good. You didn't cheat, right? Of course you didn't. Of the ones you were able to answer there were several wrong and several partially correct. I also just realized that I put in the word Satin by mistake. I don't know the Armenian word for Satin. I meant to type in Velvet. Anyway, see if you can finish the list later.

    I have added some more words on the top of the list. This is fun...


    Satin= Payloun yeresov medaksaneman gerbas
