Excellent Job

by divaneh on

Thanks MPD jaan for this valuable contribution to the Oxford dictionary. I think they should also be included in the Dehkhoda dictionary so our own people also benefit from IRI creations.


Mash Ghasem

priceless as usual.

Cahrizaki is number one. BTW there were a lot than three killed in there, including a few doctors that were killed because of it, afterwards.

Well, maybe it's a close tie with Sundiseater, my humble suggestions for variations on this theme could be Sundistas, Sundism, ...tis a very fecund term (not to mention a profound social pathology) not seen since Mr. Chokh Bakhtiar himself, and closely related!

Is keyboard-warrior already in there? cyber-basij?

Hi! MPD,

      Thank you for the Iran-related new entries......my favorite is keyboardjahadi..................I ran into several of them on IC.....they are pretty gung-ho! One dude told me that:

 I love Iran and Iranians more than you hate AhmadiNejad and Khamenei.

***************

OMG! It sounds so patriotic!

Is cahrezakki derived from Kahrizak prison? In there, 3 protesters died, and then Khamenei shut down the prison personally.......not sure if it is open again under the new management!
