 * I think that Kurdish kalan, kêlan is inherited. I have two sources which derives it from OIr. *karta-dāna [from karta- "knife" + -dāna "place"]; check Kurdish-English dictionary by MICHAEL L CHYET, p 295. For similar compound in Iranian languages compare Pashto čax̌tun "scabbard" from OIr. *kartya-stāna [from kartya- "knife" + -stāna "place"] (I don't know Oss. кӕрддзӕм is related or not). Finally Hawramî kêlana "scabbard" can't be from Armenian.--Calak (talk) 21:22, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * , probably. Now I think the Armenian itself may be an Iranian borrowing. --Vahag (talk) 18:11, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
