Now i know the word Istana or Astana we use in Malay is from Persian.. cool.. |
Istana means court in Indonesian, so I'm assuming that is the same in Bahasa Melayu. Just checked and Astana means cemetery in Indonesian so it would be embarrassing to mix the two up :)

If that's true, why didn't the ancient Egyptians call their country "Khemedistan"?

Please explain Medenaywe. Are you saying "istan" is derived from an ancient onomatopeic word for motherland?

persian was the cultural and artistic language of turks (the ones on anotolia) up till ataturk changed the language. so it is very possible that it came from a persian term.
stan means tribe, that is what i read but i guess it could also mean country or place.
