....DVORA EVROPA = MEANS DVOR I.E. YARD (LIKE BACK YARD OR FRONT YARD OF THE HOUSE), SO THIS IS LIKE THE YARD OF EUROPE, AND IN FACT MIDDLE EAST IS LIKE YARD FOR EUROPE AND FOR ASIA, AND OBVIOUSLY FOR AFRICA TOO...

I see, yes i agree, dvor/a = the yard that is in close proximity to the home in modern Macedonian. This is also where that English word "door" comes from.Also I found it interesting to read that old reference describing and referring to the arslan more than 1500 years before the arrival of the Turks to our lands.Regards

"Door" does not derive from Dvor/a. It's quite the opposite. Read below:DEFINITION: Door, doorway (usually in plural). Originally an ablauting noun *dhwor, *dhur-, in the plural, designating the entrance to the enclosure (*dhwor-o-) surrounding the house proper.
Derivatives include forest and foreign.
1. Zero-grade form *dhur- in suffixed forms *dhur-s (accusative plural) and *dhur-o- (neuter). door, from Old English duru, door (feminine, originally plural), and dor, door (neuter), respectively from Germanic *durunz and *duram. 2. Suffixed o-grade form *dhwor-ns (accusative plural). farouche, foreign, vicar forane, from Latin fors, (toward) out of doors, outside. 3. Suffixed o-grade form *dhwor-ois (locative plural). forest; afforest, faubourg, foreclose, forfeit, from Latin fors, (being) out of doors. 4. Suffixed o-grade form *dhwor-o-. forensic, forum, from Latin forum, marketplace (originally the enclosed space around a home). 5. durbar, from Old Persian duvara-, door, gate. 6. Zero-grade form *dhur-. thyroid, from Greek thur, door. (Pokorny dhr- 278.)
