Table Of ContentGlossary
This glossary is made up of two parts: a comprehensive Persian-English component and a less
comprehensive but substantial English-Persian section. The words in each part are arranged according
to the alphabets of the respective languages. The items in the Persian-English section include the
Persian word, the English equivalent or equivalents, transcription and, where appropriate, the
number of the lesson in which the item appears in the textbook for the first time. The suffixes,
infinitives, etc., that are used to form compound nouns are also provided.
The listing of the compound verbs is somewhat different from the usual. Unlike the common
practice, these verbs are not listed under the compounding noun. Instead, they appear as a group
under the appropriate formative auxiliary verb. There they are organized alphabetically, according to
the first letter of the compounding noun. Thus, rather than under 'telefon', the verb 'telefon
kærdæn' (to telephone) must be looked up under the auxiliary verb 'kærdæn'. Under that
auxiliary, this verb appears as a member of a long list of kærdæn verbs, all set off by indentation.
Furthermore, verbs that include compounding elements like 'bær-', 'va-', etc., are conjugated for
the first three persons of their present tense.
