Synopsis

The essential Dari language
resource!

Dari, spoken by over 20 million people
worldwide, is one of the official languages of Afghanistan. Closely related to
the Persian (Farsi) of Iran, and the Tajik of Tajikistan, the languages have been
split by politics and geography over time.

This unique, two-part resource
provides travelers to Afghanistan or people working with Dari speakers with the
tools they need for daily interaction. The bilingual dictionary has a concise
vocabulary for everyday use, and the phrasebook allows instant communication on
a variety of topics. Ideal for government and NGO workers,
interpreters, military personnel, resettlement agencies, teachers, and anyone
who needs to communicate in Dari, this guide includes:

• 5,000 (Romanized)
  dictionary entries
• Essential phrases on subjects
  such as healthcare, time, dates, transportation, money, communication services
  and much more
• Practical
  cultural information
• A guide to the Dari alphabet and basic grammar
  and pronunciation sections
  
• A concise Introduction to Afghanistan, including
  history, culture, and development of the Dari language
