Literally "present". Tajik punctuality is real; saying hozir commits you to immediacy. Delayed time is a source of friction.
One word, meaning today. Also "ин рўз" (this day) works. Tajik time words are compact and efficient.
One word, tomorrow. Also "рўзи дигар" (day other) is understood. Fardo is faster and used constantly.
Literally "one minute".
Stays singular after a number.
Also means clock.
