I haven't heard that pronunciation of Tehran, probably because I can't bring myself to watch TV news. You definitely pronounce the "h" In Tehran, but there's no "kh" sound. "Teh" is like "Tet" without the last "t" and kind of an exhaling "h", and then "ran" has a long a, like "tron".

Iran is pronounced "ee" and then the same "ran" as Tehran. Iranian is that and then "ee" and "an" rhyming with "tron".

My favorite slogan was "vai be ruz ke mosalah shavim" but I don't think it stuck around long

I'm gonna have to point out that a lot of people here may not be too aware of anonymous or things like that. So on a site like this it could piss a lot of outsiders off. Personally the first time I saw people using the term "faggot" lightly on here I was kind of astonished and pissed off. Mainly because I couldn't figure out why someone was using slurs against me. But since I'm not gay and don't really mind being cursed at too much, it wasn't a big deal.

I'm sure that there are a lot of people coming on here though who do not feel the same way. And I think using a racist term like "sand-nigger" is a good way to piss off and alienate the very people we are trying to help out.

But anyway, that's just my view of things, as a non-anonymous who came here to help out Iranians.

As not being Iranian, not being linked to any Iranian, not being student of any science dealing with Iranian culture or language or the Middle East a.o., I really would appreciate!
