	Persian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Prior to British colonization, Persian was also widely used as a second language in the Indian subcontinent; it took prominence as the language of culture and education in several Muslim courts in the subcontinent throughout the Middle Ages and became the official court language under the Mughal emperors.
		Over this period, the morphology of the language was simplified from the complex conjugation and declension system of Old Persian to the almost completely regularized morphology and rigid syntax of Modern Persian, in a manner often described as paralleling the development of English.
		Farsi is the Arabicized form of Parsi, due to a lack of the /p/ phoneme in Standard Arabic.

		In Iran the Academy of Persian Language and Literature is a center that evaluates the new words in order to initiate and advise its Persian equivalent.
		Human languages, and the alphabet used to represent those languages in written form, are two different concepts, and alphabets are not intrinsic to human languages, so a shared writing system does not imply a broader relationship.
		The Persian language was crucial in the formation of a common language of the Central, North and Northwest regions of the Indian subcontinent.

	Persian Language
		Persian is a subgroup of West Iranian languages that include the closely related Persian languages of Dari and Tajik; the less closely related languages of Luri, Bakhtiari and Kumzari; and the non-Persian dialects of Fars Province.
		For example, it was an important language during the reign of the Moguls in Indian where knowledge of Persian was cultivated and encouraged; its use in the courts of Mogul India ended in 1837, banned by officials of the East Indian Company (British Colonialism).
		The Early Modern period of the language (ninth to thirteenth centuries), preserved in the literature of the Empire, is known as Classical Persian, due to the eminence and distinction of poets such as Roudaki, Ferdowsi, and Khayyam.

	THE IRANIAN:Opinion, language, Persian, Farsi, scholars
		Saying Farsi instead of Persian robs the language and the culture of all the sense of splendor the name Persian has taken on in western languages through two and a half millennia of war, trade, religious and cultural influence, and other forms of confrontation or subtle interaction.
		Great civilizations earn the right to have corrupted forms of their names, their adjectives, and their place names in other languages through long periods of contact and influence, and the conceptual and connotational range of the recipient languages is considerably enriched by the adoption of the corrupted forms.
		If we compare the position of this hypothetical tribe in all the languages to which the tribe is new with that of, say, of the Dutch in English, for whose race and whose country a thesaurus is needed to record the English variants, the point becomes clear.

	THE IRANIAN: Features: Language, Persian or Farsi
		While the use of the word "Farsi" is a political statement for some Iranian authorities, for others it may indicate a lack of knowledge about the history of this language.
		Three main groups use the word Farsi instead of Persian while speaking English: non-Iranians who are somewhat familiar with the country and its culture; second-generation Iranians who know some Persian, and Iranians, including some officials, who do not have a sound knowledge about their culture and language.
		Moreover, the name Farsi is obscure and under the best conditions refers only to certain dialects such as the Persian of Iran as opposed to Tajiki, the Persian of Tajikistan or Dari, the Persian of Afghanistan, or even one may say Isfahani, the Persian of Isfahan.
