About this episode

The Reddit post "European country names in Persian (transliterated)" discusses the Persian names for various European countries and their origins. The discussion highlights how some names, like "Engelestan" for England, have been used for centuries, while others, like "Scotland," are simply the English endonym used in Persian. Users also debate the etymology of specific names, such as "Yunan" for Greece, which is derived from the Ionian region of Asia Minor. The thread also touches upon historical connections and linguistic influences, such as the impact of Sanskrit and Pali on Thai due to Indian influence.
