Pjs








Just invested in my summer nighttime wardrobe after realizing I only own one pair of pajama pants. Boxer shorts from the Gap in the following prints FTW.

(Ahn, please don't be mad at me, I couldn't resist)



Did you know the word pajama is Persian?

Pajama
from Urdu/Hindi पैजामा paajaama, from Persian پايجامه pāë (pāÿ) jāmah, from pAy (="leg") + jAma (="garment"). of, pertaining to, or resembling pajamas: a pajama top; a lounging outfit with pajama pants 




Listed just below is the origin of 'paradise,' a direct result of the cultural connection of the ancient Greeks and Persians:


Paradise
via French: "paradis" and Latin: "paradisus," from Greek paradeisos (παράδεισος) (=enclosed park"), from the Avestan word pairidaeza (a walled enclosure), which is a compound of pairi- (around), a cognate of the Greek περί peri, and -diz (to create, make), a cognate of the English dough. An associated word is the Sanskrit word paradesha which literally means supreme country
