Persian: Farsi? Dari? Tajik? Pt. 1 (Ep. 12)

Exhaling Words

Something I often get asked about is the differences between the 3 major dialects of Persian: Iranian (Farsi), Afghan (Dari), and Tajik. This is a topic I’ve studied a lot, as a student/speaker of Dari and Tajik who had to learn Iranian Persian in a pinch. So, I’ve tried to work through the major differences between these three dialects in a 2-part series. Check out Part 1, which focuses on script, phonology, pronunciation of grammatical forms, and colloquial sound shifts!
