He’s right in that in Persian dokmeh is used. I wasn’t talking about him being right to ur answer, but rather him stating it was a persian word.

I didn’t know the answer to the question lol!, but I figured if there were probably variants and ur confirmed that

Oddly enough, I don’t think I’ve ever run into tukmeh in anything i’ve read in persian. I’m going to go out on a limb and say it’s probably either an Farsi v Dari and/or a past vs future thing

**i get your view point now and thank you for that.

yes, it is a Farsi word. in spite of the fact that Urdu has almost 60% of it’s vocab borrowed from Farsi zabaan, it’s also true and safe to say that NOT all the Farsi vocabulary and/or it’s variant are in Use in Urdu. so, it’s possible that you may have NOT read/heard a variant of the word in Farsi. it may very well be a ‘matrook’ lafz in that language.

i’ve been told that there is now a Farsi jadeed is spoken by the masses as opposed to the traditional zabaan. one example is this:
**** traditional Farsi: Haal-e-shumaa cheest?****
jadeed Farsi: cheh taurii?****

right?**
btw, i’ve given you a she’r by 'allaamah Iqbal in support of the usage of the word “tukmah/tukmeh” in Urdu literature.
