Word du jour: MUMTAZ

The name of both a very nice Indian shop keeper and his store, I was told it means "excellent"... as in this dagger that I really wanted to get for Mr.Dragon.




MUMTAZ: "the distinguished", "the best". A common male name in Muslim communities outside of the Arab world. Also adopted in Turkish, Persian and Urdu.

These Genie lamps were also mucho mumtaz...
