 | | Penguincw: Congrats to Shant Sargsyan for being one of 4 remaining players to be perfect at Aeroflot 2020 (2/2). Among the 4, he is the lowest rated. https://chess-results.com/tnr508930... In Round 3, he'll face the highest rated of the 4, 11th seed Mamedov with black. |
|
Feb-21-20 | | wordfunph: pal Penguin, Sargsyan bowed to veteran GM Mamedov :( |

 | | Open Defence: I wonder if his first name has Sanskrit origins |
|

 | | beatgiant: <Open Defence> Here's the Wiktionary entry for it: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D5%... This source says the origins are unknown, but Sanskrit is indeed one of the theories, the Armenian gloss is "lightning" and a suggested Sanskrit origin is चन्द् (cand-, “to shine, glitter”). |

 | | Open Defence: <beatgiant> thanks for that! yeah interesting, they should be in the indo-european family of languages so good chance of there being a common root |

 | | beatgiant: <Open Defence> Note the Šanta clause: "Arm[enian] šantʿ, basically meaning ‘lightning-stroke, thunderbolt’ or ‘burning (by lightning-stroke)’ and referring also to devils, snakes and the like (originally, perhaps, to the mythological Thunder Dragon), may be compared with Luwian Šanta, the “brilliant” one, a god of war (armed with a bow) which can cause pestilence and in the Hellenistic period is equated with Herakles." So it's "On Donner and Blitzen! Dry leaves before the wild hurricane fly, as Thunder Dragon Šanta mounts to the sky." And now I'll exclaim, ere I re-lurk out of sight, "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!" |
