LEMA/لیمه
Although 'Starga' is more commonly used, 'Lema' falls sweet on my ear(and heart)!

[Nurzai]

Judah. Powerful word. Means separate right.

[salman47]

Judah. Powerful word. Means separate right.

That is not a Pashto word!

[Nurzai]

Salman47 said "Judah" as in "separate" is not a Pashto word? R u serious of course it's Pashto what are you talking about?

he means that it is a loanwaord, pashto word for separate is byal

[Nurzai]

Who loaned it ? And I've never used or heard of byal in my life? And We all know Pashto in of itself is just a bunch of languages mixed together , mostly Persian an Arabic , so how do you know that Baylor was created after Judah and not before? I think Judah is original word for separate , byal must of been made up later , or in fact, in English there are many words for the same meaning so it could be that as well . Either way . It's Pashto to me. And it's the most powerful word in the book in my opinion. Regardless if there are 100 other words which mean the same thing. Understand habibi

[Nurzai]

Happy and joyful mean the same thing, but two different words . I've never in my life heard of the word byal, but if it means Judah then I'll add that as another way of explaining the same thing, but Judah is stronger than byal , that's why it's my fav

You just confirmed that you are not a Pashtun.

Assalamu alaykum and hello everyone,

"Juda" is used in Pashto or Paktho. However, it is a Persian/Farsi/Parsi word/term in essence.

Thank you

Assalamu alaykum and hello everyone,

"Ghbarg" does mean "twin" in Pashto. "Ghbarg" is related to "braghunaey" a male twin and also to "braghunai" a female twin. However, the etymological meaning of braghunaey or braghunai is brace. Brace is from Latin "bracchia", from Greek "brakhion".

"Brace" in the sense a pair; two.
