Dari

Dari is a form of Persian spoken in Afghanistan. It is one of the two official languages of the country, along with Pashto. Dari is also spoken in other parts of Central Asia, including Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan.

Dari belongs to the Iranian branch of the Indo-Iranian language family. It is written in the Perso-Arabic script and has many loanwords from Arabic and Turkish. Dari is mutually intelligible with other forms of Persian, such as Tajiki and Farsi.
