	Tajik language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tajik (sometimes written Tadjik; тоҷикӣ, تاجیکی, tojikí [tɔːdʒɪˈki]) is a descendant of the Persian language spoken in Central Asia.
		Tajik is an offspring of the Persian language, and belongs - along with Afghanistan's Dari - to the Eastern dialects of Persian.
		The language has diverged somewhat from Persian as spoken in Afghanistan and Iran, because of political borders and the influence of Russian, although a transcribed Tajik text is easily understood by a native Persian speaker of either Iran or Afghanistan.
