book

nima : book

The Tarijan word for book is nima.

Nima is a Persian masculine first name. Nima is a Hebrew or an Indian feminine first name.

In other languages:
In Ecuador Quechua "nima" means "zero".

International locations:
Nima is the name of cities in Ghana, Guatemala, Colombia, and Romania.

How I came up with this word:
Nima is a mixture of the transliterated word for book in Russian which is kniga (книга), and the transliterated word for book in Mongolian which is nom (ном).
