If you have ever met a Tahan, consider yourself blessed. You will never find a more kind-hearted, sincere person out there. Not only does he exude endless patience, Tahan will be the friend who forgives quickly, is fiercely loyal, and is unwavering in his stand for what is right. Tahan is gentle and humble, and encouraging in his deliberate words.
Tahan is strikingly handsome; exotic.
Basically, Tahan is the most amazing person in the world, perfect in almost every way.

Can be used both as name and adjective.
Tahan is a word that appeared during the french colonial period in Tunisia. Back in the day, colonizers would use traitors in "courts" to condemn resistants. To protect said traitors and guarantee the prosperity of their long term partnership with local snitches, they would cover their faces with a bag of t'hin (flour) before they give their testimonies. From then Tunisian started calling any person engagin in T'hin (treacherous or traitorous behavior) a tahan. The plural is "Tahana".
