You know this particular animal is what started my journey to explore the Persian words for animals and spawned the release of our first book @englisifarsi animals!
I was trying to think of the word for zebra to explain to my son, and had no idea what it was.
At the time I couldn’t read persian words. So google and dictionaries were of no use.
And now I’ll never forget it. Plus it’s a combination of two funny words
Gúr meaning tomb/grave
Khar meaning donkey

For every problem, there’s a solution.
Persian. Pass it on. 🦚 🏺
Hahaha, it’s not correct man, the first part “Gur” means “Mixed”. “Gur” has also another meaning “Grave”. Oh, I laughed a lot!
