That's right Diri. "Yes kesirem kezi" (western Armenian) or "Yes sirumem kez" (eastern Armenian)

If I translate it word for word it might not sound right to you, but here it goes
" I'm Armenian not, but a little Armenian I speak.

We call yourselves Hay (Armenian) and Hayastan (Armenia) We don't use the word Armenian.

Well... Some consider Armenians to be Aryan... Especially Persians like this idea...
