"Timur was a Turkish speaker and had nothing to do with iranians..."
They why did he have a Persian name?
Where did you get this crap info? Timur is a Turkish word not Persian......... Now we are using it as demir in Anatolian Turkish.
Temur, timur, demir (Turkish) means iron, tabira means ironworker in Sumerian.
Watch your words, people!
Timur's real name was Temr or Teymr.
