Do you mean Modern Persian? It obvious that Modern Persian words have Old Persian origins. |

Aramaic is an Afro-Asiatic language. So far there's no provable link between Afro-Asiatic and Indo-European.

ie Tars, As(b/p), Daram, Mar(d/t), Naib ,Dorough. I was actually surprised how many words were different. I'm guessing Pahlavi is going to be somewhere in between, but I haven't gotten around to reading that yet.
The interesting thing I find is that Old Persian has the th sound (ie theta), but Modern Persian does not. That makes me laugh whenever my parents can't pronounce 'th' and says "ting".
Avestan is very similar to Sanskrit, but I don't think Old Persian is. Could be wrong. |

I always find it weird that Persian seems to have so many words with soft 'z' and 'f' sounds which don't exist at all in Hindi and Sanskrit.
