Conversational Dari by Eugene Glassman.
Dari/English. US $31.00We recommend that students of Dari (Afghan Persian) make use of the whole range of materials that accompany the key language textbooks Conversational Dari.
Conversational Dari was first published by Eugene Glassman in 1970/1971 in co-operation with the Language and OrientationCommittee of the International Assistance Mission (IAM). Since that time, Conversational Dari has been used by hundreds of expatriate workers in Afghanistan and Pakistan as a part of their Dari language learning, and is still used as the central text-book in Afghan language schools. For the past 30-years, Conversational Dari has been an essential resource for overseas workers and students, enabling them to speak one of the two major languages of Afghanistan.
The text included 25 lessons in Dari transliteration, with grammar explanations, exercises and pronunciation drills, along with cultural notes. Each lesson is introduced with an Afghan Persian proverb.
Its easy-to-use and practical format makes it a helpful language guide for teachers and students. The book will be of special interest to universities and professors offering, or desirous of offering, a Dari Persian Language Course as a part of their Near and Middle Eastern Studies or Iranian Languages Programs, as well as to relief and development workers and government and private agencies assisting the Afghan people.
