Armenian Language - Learning Armenian Words and Phrases

On my ninth day in Armenia, during my overnight stay at Yeganyans Bed & Breakfast in Ashtarak, I took some time to try to learn some of the Armenian language from my friend and guide Lusine! Join me on my latest Armenian adventure: learning the Armenian language, in particular, words and phrases!

After our amazing feast at Yeganyans Guest House & Wine Yard, we sat back down at our table so Lusine could teach me some Armenian words and phrases. I was nearing the end of my time in Armenia, but I had fallen in love with the country in the time I had been there. The people are so kind and hospitable, the food is amazing, and the historical sites are breathtaking.

The Armenian language is one of the oldest on Earth and dates back to Babylonian times. It’s virtually the same now as it was back then, and can all be read by present-day speakers of the language. It’s an independent branch of the Indo-European language family, so occasionally you will come across words that are similar to their counterparts in Latin-based languages. Here are all of the words and phrases Lusine taught me to say, along with their Armenian translations:

During our lesson, Lusine also told me that the Basque people in Spain migrated from the Armenian highlands, so some of the roots of their words are very similar to those in Armenia. I also learned that the word for “coffee” is named after the sound you make when you sip it!

Special thanks to my friends at Armenia Travel for their kindness, hospitality, and for arranging my trip. I couldn’t have done it without them!
