Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let's learn different languages/dialects together.
Persian, also known as Farsi in Iran, is a major language of the Iranian branch of the Indo-Iranian language family. It serves as the official language of Iran and has official status in Afghanistan (as Dari) and Tajikistan (as Tajik). Persian has a rich literary history dating back over a millennium, with renowned poets such as Hafez, Rumi, and Ferdowsi contributing to its legacy. Written in the Persian script, a modified version of the Arabic script, it is spoken by over 80 million native speakers and is known for its influence on neighboring languages and cultures in Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent. Persian's vocabulary and grammar have remained relatively stable over centuries, allowing modern speakers to understand classic Persian literature with relative ease.
Tajik is a modern variety of the Persian language spoken primarily in Tajikistan, as well as in parts of Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, and Russia. It belongs to the Indo-European language family, specifically the Indo-Iranian branch. Unlike Persian spoken in Iran and Afghanistan, Tajik is written in the Cyrillic script due to historical Soviet influence, though it shares much of its vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation with these dialects. The language has also absorbed a number of Russian loanwords over the past century. Tajik is the official language of Tajikistan and serves as an important marker of national identity for the Tajik people, who are ethnically and culturally tied to the broader Persian-speaking world.
