About the Dari and Pashto Languages<\/h2>\n

Dari and Pashto are the two official languages of Afghanistan. Both languages are in the Indo-European language family, related to such diverse languages as Hindi, Greek, and English. Although both have been influenced by Arabic, perhaps most notably in using modified Arabic scripts as their writing systems, they are not linguistically related to Arabic.<\/p>\n

Dari<\/h3>\n

Dari is a variety of Persian spoken in Afghanistan, and is the first language of about 12.5 million people in Afghanistan and neighboring Pakistan. It is also used as a lingua franca throughout Afghanistan. Dari is closely related to Iranian Persian which is spoken in Iran.\u00a0 Dari and Iranian Persian are often mutually intelligible. Iranian Persian is available in Translator simply as \u201cPersian\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
