Abstract

The Dari language, part of the Indo-European family, is the primary language of Afghanistan. Spoken by over 20 million people, it is considered as a sort of “lingua Franca” in Afghanistan. In this poster we describe the sound system of the Dari language including its sound inventory, sound changes found in colloquial speech, adoption of loan words, as well as vowel groupings.
