It's quite unprobable that "goure" is an Ottoman Turkish word, since it violates Turkish phonology rules, i.e. it is unpronounceable. There is a word "gure" which means "unripe grape" or "unripe date", and a word "gureba" meaning "stranger", both with low frequency of usage, and both apparently of Persian origin (I'm not sure about "gure though). However, no goure. So for the moment I'm removing this from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.77.239.121 (talk) 04:46, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article was probably referring to giaour, but as far as I can tell, that is unrelated to 'gora'. --macrakis (talk) 14:46, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No article to redirect to.

Reviewing the citations for this including the ones on the past version of this article here, I find no evidence this is a slur, so it has been removed from List of ethnic slurs. So now this has nowhere to redirect to, so I have redirect it to wiktionary:गोरा. Richard-of-Earth (talk) 02:06, 4 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
