    1. Շիշ at least I use every day. It means bottle so it’s pretty essential

    2. Western Armenians often use ‚Fıstık‘ as ֆստըխ. We use this word at home along with ընկոյզ

      No, only կազմ for „envelope“, so with a completely different meaning.

      *Fıstık* is from Persian/Arabic, I believe.

      My family (Western Armenian) use *mașa* for clothes pegs or kitchen prongs, but I’ve heard it used for a hair claw too by others. I doubt it comes from Armenian, though.

      We also use *șis* too, but I don’t think it’s from Armenian either, rather the other way around.

      I personally don’t know the rest of the words on the list.

    6. I use Shish kebab or shashlyk ( Russian for kebab)
      I know meydan as a square or place or gathering but I don’t think Armenians in Armenia at least use it in day to day speech
