Dubai is home to a massive Iranian and Afghan expat community, making Persian one of the most widely spoken languages in the emirate after Arabic. Business dealings with Iran frequently involve Farsi, and the city's Iranian community has built thriving commercial and cultural institutions.
Dubai has one of the world's largest Persian-speaking expat populations — including both Iranian Farsi speakers and Afghan Dari speakers. Gulf Farsi usage is also present among longer-resident communities. Dari and Farsi are mutually intelligible at conversational level, but business and formal writing may differ by register.
Persian: Script, Poetry, and 2,500 Years of Literature
Persian is written in a modified Arabic script (Perso-Arabic script), read right to left. It is an Indo-European language — grammatically closer to European languages than Arabic, despite the shared alphabet. Persian gave the world Rumi, Hafez, Omar Khayyam, and one of history's richest poetic traditions.
Persian uses the Perso-Arabic alphabet — 32 letters, all written cursively and connected. Unlike Arabic, Persian has no short vowel marks in most texts, making reading a skill built over time.
All three are forms of Persian. Iranian Farsi (standard), Afghan Dari, and Tajik Persian (written in Cyrillic) are mutually intelligible in most everyday speech, with vocabulary and accent differences.
Persian has no grammatical gender — no masculine/feminine nouns. A significant advantage for English speakers compared to Arabic, French, or German.
Classical Persian poetry uses archaic vocabulary and poetic meter. Modern Standard Persian (spoken in Tehran) is the practical target for learners. Your tutor will clarify which register you need.
