you cannot say es curt em, it's a word to word translation which makes no sense in Armenian, you say , es mrsum em .
Does Eastern Armenian ever use "bagh" for "cold"? (I guess it would be pronounced "bpagh") That is a word ordinarily used in Werstern Armenian and can refer to either people or things.
yes, you can hear bagh in Eastern Armenian as well, in fact these are 2 branches of one and the same language, cannot be very very different. as for pronouncing it, b is pronounced as par (dance) and gh is pronouced like khaGHoGH (gh of grapes)
