Hello! I’m (20M) looking for a Western Armenian speaker in the sub to chat with! I’m good at listening and comprehending what is being said, but I need to practice SPEAKING more. Message me if you’re interested!

Me and my girlfriend are both diaspora Armenians and lately we’ve been trying to step up our Armenian speaking skills. Today she suggested that we should start using Armenian dirty talk during s** but I am not exactly sure how that’s supposed to sound like, so we need a bit of help. Preferably Western Armenian please!

Barev dzez! My name is Jake, and I've written some things down in Armenian from the very little I know. If you'd like to please give some feedback on my handwriting and Grammar, I've been trying to improve. Mersi

Looking for Armenian listeners that what to experience what we are writing. We are officially on Apple Music, Spotify, and most streaming music platforms.

How do you sing it? I realized l've heard/used the 3 versions below (all to the same melody as "happy birthday to you" in English) which do you use? Curious to see if there are even other versions or a most commonly used one.

Menk yegadz enk donelu Menk yegadz enk donelu Menk yegadz enk sireli (insert name) Daretartse donelu

OR

Pari daretarts kezi Pari daretarts kezi Pari daretarts sireli (insert name) Pari daretarts kezi

OR

Daretartsne aysor Daretartsne aysor Daretartsne (insert name) Daretartsne aysor

How, if at all, would you say and/or write “Dodgers”(LA Baseball team) in Armenian? A friend and I were chatting and couldn’t figure out any way to make it make sense haha խուսափողներ / khusap’voghner is the literal translation

For context, the LA Dodgers were named from their Brooklyn days when fans going to baseball games would “dodge” trolley cars while crossing the tracks. So it kinda makes sense in Armenian right?? 😂

We figured teams like “Angels” works as հրեշտակներ or hreshdakner and “Kings” makes sense as tagavorner since these are actual words lol

Բարև բոլորին! I’ve been working on this app for the last few months and would love to get people’s thoughts on it. It’s called issen, which is a personal, conversational AI language tutor for intermediate / advanced learners. It remembers who you are and naturally adapts the chats and lessons to your particular learning style and goals.

The idea came from my experience trying to learn French. I’ve spent years at it going through many online tutors. I like the experience of a dedicated teacher a lot, but on top of being expensive and often a bit awkward, I move around a lot, so an in-person teacher is extremely hard for me to manage. I tried a bunch of language learning apps (Babbel, Duolingo, Rosetta Stone, etc.), but none of them really compared to having an actual teacher.

The idea for issen is for it to be that actual conversational teacher, accessible directly from your phone at any time.

You can check out the app at issen.com. Please do let me know what you think, if you have any questions or feedback, or want to talk about language learning in general!

Hey everyone. I've created a new Discord channel for anyone interested in learning Armenian. It's empty for now, but I'll populate it with channels as more people come. It can be used for practicing with each other or with native speakers, asking language related questions, etc. I'll try to be active there for now. Don't know what will happen later though. Will see how it goes.

Feel free to join!

Ձոր and Վանք in Armenian Language meaning

Բարև everyone!

Does anyone know if there's a new edition of Dora Sahakyan's Eastern Armenian that doesn't use that outdated and overly ornate font (I believe its name is Hianali)?

It really hinders my reading, especially as some specific letters really look other letters to me, for example շ really looks like չ:

Also, sometimes ր looks like an ը (especially when it appears as last letter, where it could be an article) and ռ looks like a somewhat badly printed ու:

Even my wife (Երևանից) claims some letters are confusing to her, especially if she's reading from a phone...

Born in the US but have been speaking Western Armenian with my family since birth. I'm sure it's a bit broken up with words from other languages mixed in. I've been trying to confirm that there is no explicit her or him in Armenian.

To my understanding the closest words / terms are:

Aniga = that person

Marta = the man

Geena = the woman

Is this right?

Anyone know the Armenian words for Halloween related terms such as:

• ghost
• witch
• spiderweb
• monster

Plus any others you’d like to mention!

ETA: I’m in the diaspora where Halloween is celebrated and therefore want to have the terminology to speak about related concepts in Armenian too, thanks!

Please could someone explain the meaning of this phrase. It seems to be a լոռվա բառբար thing but I just don’t really get any of the explanations I’ve read.

Բարեվ բոլորին,

I need help with a grammar point. I would like to understand the difference between քանի and ինչքան. I read that քանի means 'how many' and ինչքան means 'how much', but I don't know if that's all there is to it, or if that's good explanation.

I'd appreciate it if you could share with me some example sentences too.

Շնորհակալ եմ։

I've looked for this song's lyrics a lot, however didn't find the lyrics anywhere " toghèk yes gnam " Thanks in asvace

We're living in the diaspora (not Glendale) and recently added +1 Armenians to the world and this kid, along with any others we may have, are going to be raised Armenian.

We're looking for specifics of how kids are raised Armenian. Any recommendations, whether they be books, apps, educational toys, or cultural traditions like specific songs or games that we can in America?

We're not the best at speaking Armenian to each other at home because we were born here and speak English all day to everyone else in our lives. Plus, one of us is Eastern Armenian speaking and one is Western so that's just another hurdle that makes speaking English easier. We're working on this but we have no family nearby either to lean onto the grandparents.

We only speak Armenian with the baby but all the toys we buy that sing and dance and teach kids language is all in English. We've looked for an Armenian nanny but there are none nearby so we're going to put the kid into an English speaking daycare. We don't know any Armenian lullabies to rock the kid to sleep with>!so we sing Mer Hayrenik to him every night to put him to sleep.!<We play Armenian music every day but with all of this we need more tools especially to teach the kid the alphabet. Neither of us are any kind of educators so we're a little unsure of how to mold this kid around being Armenian.

Main question I guess after writing all that^ is how do you teach your kids Armenian in a household of 1 Eastern Armenian speaker and 1 Western Armenian speaker with no other real support around?

Hello to the wonderful Armenian people! 🇦🇲

Here I have attempted to write the Armenian names of a few countries in Armenian to practice writing the Armenian Alphabet.

Please provide your feedback on my writing and how I could better it.

Thanks 😊

1. I know Kessab and Musa Ler (Anjar) dialects are quite similar since they are neighboring villages. But how similar are they exactly? Almost identical?
2. Is the Anjar dialect being taught to the younger generation? Do they speak it amongst themselves? How about Kessaberen?
3. If you know of people to follow or contact about these two dialects, as well as local village customs/traditions, I would greatly appreciate you pointing me in their direction. Also of any written works on this topic. Thanks!

Couldn't find the lyrics anywhere online and my armenian isnt good enough to understand it. Also I cant tell what dialect it's in.

Much appreciated!

Hello everyone, I've been working on a language learning app to help people learn Armenian.

We've got themed lessons (like restaurants, transportation, holidays). The idea is to learn phrases in series under 1 theme for context.

There are translation exercises (35 phrases per theme) from English to Armenian where you practice forming sentences you'd actually use in real life. You can set your own difficulty level too (A1 to B1).

There is also Natural Voice Pronunciation: Every phrase comes with HD audio, helping you learn the exact pronunciation. No more guessing how words should sound.

https://preview.redd.it/4h4ta8bg6hsd1.png?width=438&format=png&auto=webp&s=7391e86e321244c44955aaab001f0beee7cd64c5

When you make a mistake, the app explains you how to do it right. Because that's how we learn!

Just go to edit profile and select Armenian and A1 level. Check it out: https://incoglingo.com/

Now even if atleast 1 person subscribe I'll begin working on:

• Immersion Voice conversation bot for speaking practice for advanced C1/C2 levels for same themes.

• Language exchange feature to connect learners.

For now would love to hear your thoughts on the voice pronunciation feature! 🇦🇲

Hey all! Does anyone know of any good online courses or classes to learn eastern Armenian?

Many thanks in advance

Ելլալ and ելլել are they similar ? Do ինչ կ'լլե and ինչ կ'լլա have the same meaning of : what's hapening

I've searched for it, each site has different translation for these verbs, so can someone clarify them with providing examples
