The increasing popularity of the study of Persian (also known as Farsi, Tajiki or Dari) in the English speaking world, has created a need for a bi-directional Persian-English dictionary geared towards English speakers who are learning Persian.

BOOK
Farsi Persian English Dictionary (Hippocrene Standard Dictionary)
S. Haim
$15.00

About this product:
This is a good dictionary for a beginning student of Persian language for the purposes of translating modern texts. It is not too daunting, avoids most of the archaic terms which make dictionaries like Steingass hard to use for a student of modern Persian and still manages to be relatively concise despite its small size. However, editor's claim that this book contains "hints for pronunciation" is almost entirely false - the author himself states in his foreword that this is a dictionary for writing, not speaking the words. There is no transliteration or vocalisation unless the word is considered tricky (unfortunately most are not) and so those intending to recite texts should consult a more through dictionary (possibly that of Lazard or even Haim's bigger dictionaries).
