@AryamanA Where are you getting the nuqta from for bakar? Isn't it native? DerekWinters (talk) 17:50, 23 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

@DerekWinters: Oh, my bad, बक़र (baqar) actually means "bull" or "cow". I wrote the wrong definition. It's an Arabic borrowing, but बकरा (bakrā) / बकरी (bakrī) is indeed a tadbhav. But to complicate matters further, बकरा-ईद (bakrā-īd) does exist as a synonym of बक़रीद (baqrīd), so perhaps the two unrelated words are being conflated. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करेंयोगदान) 19:43, 23 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
