khoj : knife
The Tarijan word for knife is khoj.
In other languages:
Khoj means "quest, trace, track, exploration, search" in Urdu (transliterated).
How I came up with this word:
Khoj is a mixture of the transliterated word for knife in Russian which is
nozh (нож), and the transliterated word for knife in Mongolian which is khutga(хутга).
Note: Tarijan changes the Russian zh to j. The same cyrillic alphabet letter is transliterated as zh in Russian and j in Mongolian.
Tarijan conlang -- a fictional, constructed, fantasy language
