c22.11

*Left Wing.* In the same way the left wing is referred to by five different names, the *maisarah*, A. *anṣār-i-maisarah* (Dastūr-ul-Inshā, 233) *jaranghār*, Ch., *dast-i-chap*, P., and *jānib-i-yasār* (Khāfī Khān, ii, 876). *Jaranghār*, the form used in India, should be more correctly *juwānghār* (Horn, 39, P. de C., 157, 289), but *jaranghār* does not seem to be merely a mistake of the press, as Dr. Horn suggests, for we have it in the dictionaries (Steingass, 359).
