"Take the word �honour�. Individualized, even atomized
in modern English. But it also offers an approximate translation for the Urdu concept of
�izzat�. Izzat is familial, transmitted through generations, a treasure to be guarded
jealously; where the gain by one is the gain of all, and so too for loss. "
