It's not actually Khoresht but merely Khoresh... the T at the end is just pronounced in common daily speaking usage. --Shawn 22:25, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shawn is correct, this page should be moved. 174.18.4.14 (talk) 03:23, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Khoresh, not Khoresht

The correct word for Persian stew dishes is "Khoresh" and not "Khoresht". The article claims that Khoresht is the "Tehrani dialect", but this is nonsense. The unetymological -t is added due to the phenomenon known as linguistic hypercorrection and is only seen in WRITTEN language, which is usually the main indication for the aforesaid phenomenon.

The word KHORESH is derrived from Middle Persian KHWARISHN, whith the -ishn regularly becoming -ish in the transition to Modern Persian. There is no meaningful thing as Khoresht with a -t.

I corrected the term and explained the -t, but the article should generally be rewritten.
