Vocabulary

This section is intended to come handy as a quick reference for everyday Persian vocabulary, and probably for frequent use by the users of this website. In all of the categories I have tried to include words that are more likely to be encountered in ordinary Persian texts and dialogues. This means that the vocabulary section ignores the distinction between a wasp and a bee but covers the difference between someone's mother's sister and the person's father's sister (both called "aunt" in English).
