Talk:चौकी

@Aryaman Hi, seems it's borrowed from Dari Persian چوکی (chaukii) which means "chair". Assamese also means chair and the hindi word means stool, bench.

-- Sagir
 * According to the Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary, the word is from 🇨🇬, via 🇨🇬. I think that makes more sense, and that the Persian word is also probably from Sanskrit since it is only used in Afghanistan and not Iran. —Aryaman (मुझसे बात करो) 12:34, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
