1000+ Most Useful Persian Words (Farsi-English Bi-lingual Edition)

Terrific! This has saved me hours of work in constructing my own vocab lists. As I am teaching myself Persian, I had very clear ideas about the resources I wanted/needed before I began. This book has transliteration, as well as the Persian script. It is also useful in that if you take a photocopy of each page, you can construct "flash cards" for the various words (cut out the lists and fold them). There are some mistakes in the English but this is doesn't detract from the overall quality.

It was so lovely to have a transcription of how to say the words - always a problem.

It took a long time to complete all 12 Farsi (Persian) units on Rosetta Stone, and this book very much helped me. Initially, the Farsi script on Rosetta Stone (and printed in other sources) was too small for me to read. This book if perfect for someone learning Farsi, as the print is huge and clear. And virtually all of the words are useful to learn. (One difference I observed: R.S. taught different names for the months of the year, so my guess the months in this book are probably based on a religious calendar of some sort). This book was a life-saver while learning to read Farsi, and I learned 530 of the words in this book while taking Rosetta Stone.

This is easy to read with large font, Farsi terms are categorized making it easy to go back and find something. What I found most helpful was the transliterations for each word/phrase. As someone who just needed basic words in Farsi, it was super helpful for pronunciations.

This is a great book to start with!!! I've been looking for a books like this and after buying the 100 Persian Verbs, Amazon showed me this book.This book organizes vocabulary by topic and it really helps to keep things in order. Other books blend vocabulary words together and you'll have to go through the book to find all the words under the topic you want to build a vocabulary list off of.I wish other language books was organized like this. Or at least have a section where the vocabulary was organized like this book is.It would have been great if this book came with a CD of the vocabulary lists so I wouldn't have to type/write out all the words for flash cards.

Is the best I have found so far. However is a very formal form of Farsi

Most helpful feature for me is the large print in farsi alphabet, so I can practice writing, as well as reading and pronunciation.
