The majority of scholars believes Македонски meaning "Court", as it was the formal ,(درﺑﺎر) that Dari refers to the Persian word dar or darbār [9] მარგალური language of the Sassanids. The original meaning of the word dari is given in a notice Nederlands attributed to Ibn al-Muqaffaʿ (cited by Ibn al-Nadim in Al-Fehrest).[19] According to him, "Pārsī was the language spoken by priests, scholars, and the like; it is the language of Fars." This language refers to the Middle Persian.[9] As for Dari, he says, "it is the language of the cities of Norsk Madā'en; it is spoken by those who are at the king’s court.

Scots Shqip Simple English History [edit] Slovenčina Dari comes from Middle Persian which was spoken during the rule of theS assanid dynasty. In ﮐﻮردی Српски / srpski general, Iranian languages are known from three periods, usually referred to as Old, Middle, Basa Sunda and New (Modern) periods. These correspond to three eras in Iranian history, the old era being Suomi the period from some time before, during and after the Achaemenid period (that is, to 300 Svenska BC), the Middle Era being the next period, namely, the Sassanid period and part of the post- Sassanid period, and the New era being the period afterwards down to the present day.[22][23][24] Тоҷикӣ Türkçe But it is thought that the first person in Europe to use the termD eri for Dari was Thomas Hyde, Українська at Oxford, in his chief work, Historia religionis veterum Persarum (1700).[25] اردو Dari or Deri has two meanings: Vepsän kel’ Tiếng Việt language of the court "the Zebani Deri(Zeban i Deri or Zaban i Dari = the language of Deri), or the language of Zazaki the court, and the Zebani Farsi, the dialect of Persia at large (...)"[26][27] Edit links Dari, sometimes Araki-Methods (Iraqi), is a form of poetry used from Rudaki to Jami. In 1500 AD it appeared in Herat in the Persian-speaking Timurid dynasty, and the Persian poems of the Indian poets of the Mughal Empire who used the Indian verse methods or rhyme methods like Bedil and Muhammad Iqbal, became familiar with the Araki methods. Iqbal loved both styles of literature and poetry, when he wrote: ﮔﺮﭼ ﻫﻨﺪی در ﻋﺬوﺑﺖ ﺷﮑﺮ اﺳﺖ [28]1 Garče Hendī dar uzūbat2 šakkar ast ﻃﺮز ﮔﻔﺘﺎر دری ﺷﯿﺮﯾﻦ ﺗﺮ اﺳﺖ tarz-e goftār-e Darī šīrīn tar ast Translation according to literature and poetry: Even though in euphonious Hindi* is sugar – Rhyme method in Dari (Persian) is sweeter * Qandi Parsi or [Ghand e Parsi] (Rock candy of Parsi) is a metaphor for the Persian language and poetry. Original bey Iqbal: Hindi; Hindi in Devanagariscript = Urdu in Persian-Arabic-script ;English: bliss or delight, flavor or sweetness ﻋﺬوﺑﺖ is an adjective of uzūbat or ozubat ﻋﺬب in language, literature and poetry uzubat means euphonious, melody or phonaesthetics. This poem is a poetic statement of the poet Iqbal with respect to the poetry of the 14th century Persian poet Hafez: ﺷﮑﺮﺷﮑﻦ ﺷﻮﻧﺪ ﻫﻤﻪ ﻃﻮﻃﯿﺎن ﻫﻨﺪ Šakkar-šakan šavand hama tūtīyān-e Hend زﯾﻦ ﻗﻨﺪ ﭘﺎرﺳﯽ ﮐﻪ ﺑﻪ ﺑﻨﮕﺎﻟﻪ ﻣﯽرود zīn qand-e Pārsī ke ba Bangāla mē-ravad English translation: All the parrots of India will crack sugar Through this Persian Candy which is going to Benga[l29][30] Persian replaced the Central Asian languages of the Eastern Iranics[.31] Ferghana, Samarkand, and Bukhara were starting to be linguistically Darified in originally Khorezmian and Soghdian areas during Samanid rule.[32] Dari Persian spread around the Oxus River region, Afghanistan, and Khorasan after the Arab conquests and during Islamic-Arab rule.[33][34] The replacement of the Pahlavi script with the Arabic script in order to write the Persian language was done by the Tahirids in 9th century Khorasan.[35] The Dari Persian language spread and led to the extinction of Eastern Iranian languages like Bactrian, Khwarezmian with only a tiny amount of Sogdian descended Yaghnobi speakers remaining among the now Persian-speaking Tajik population of Central Asia, due to the fact that the Arab-Islamic army which invaded Central Asia also included some Persians who governed the region like the Sassanids.[36] Persian was rooted into Central Asia by the Samanids.[37] Persian phased out Sogdian.[38] The role of lingua franca that Sogdian originally played was succeeded by Persian after the arrival of Islam.[39] Persian was a major language of government and diplomacy until the middle of the 1700s. Subsequently the strength of Persia declined relative to the industrializing states of Europe (many of whom pursued imperialist policies in the regions where Persian was spoken).
