Ժակո lyrics

Hi. That's a good question! She is singing in colloquial Armenian (Yerevan dialect specifically), in which case a lot of the conjugation changes compared to the standard language. That's why the "-ր" in the "-իր" suffix drops, such as "նստի(ր)" "հա՛քի(ր)", "բա՛ցի(ր)", "փա՛կի(ր)", "պահի(ր)". "Խոսիր" is a bit of an odd one; we don't say "խոսի" but "խոսա". Also notice how the emphasis mark (՛) is placed in the penultimate syllable rather than the last vowel (բա՛ցի and not բացի՛ or ա՛ղջկա and not աղջկա՛), which is what you have to do in standard Armenian. This way of stressing the word is not specific to Yerevan but is more of a regional dialect, especially typical of the Artsakh dialect but not only. That's why the song is especially fun to me; I love how she mixes the different colloquial dialects, it is kinda of another way of going against society's expectations which is what the lyrics is overall about! Hope this helped :)
