English[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Borrowed from Classical Persian دری (darī), of disputed origin, probably from دربار (darbār, “royal court”). The use of the name for the Afghan dialect of Persian in English is a recent development, the language formerly being known as Persian or Afghan Persian to English speakers.
Pronunciation[edit]
