What Can a Professional Dari Translation Teach You About a business?

Introduction

Afghanistan is constantly in the news for more than a decade due to political and civil unrests. It is frequently associated with burqas, armies, local fighting groups, and beads. However, the country is more than that. Today, we discuss one of its national languages, Dari. Keep on reading to discover a country which celebrates its ancient traditions proudly.

Dari translation
  • A professional Dari translation from the medical sector will consist of everything medical. The linguist will carefully translate medical books and other associated media. Medical translations are performed by specialists with prior experience in the field. Resultantly, this avoids disastrous consequences since these translations will directly impact people’s lives.
  • Judicial translations are precisely what the name suggests. This technical form of translation involves translating meeting minutes, witness testimonies, regulatory laws, statutes, and dispositions. Legal translations are presented to international judges in cross-boundary cases.  Such forms of translations are performed by ex-lawyers or paralegals who have an extensive understanding of the used terminologies.
  • Commercial translations require the linguist to understand technical business jargon and terminologies used in the client’s company’s industry. Clients can request translating memos, tender documents, business reports, and other routine documents. The top management distributes these copies to branches, departments, or franchises worldwide.
  • An informative translation intends to transfer knowledge to the reader. The source text can relate to sciences, daily living, politics, or business. These documents are arranged in the form of essays, stories, and notes to simplify the content therein. As a result, the translation combines literary aspects with knowledge before presenting it to the intended reader.

How to translate Dari?

  • Firstly, grammar and syntax are pretty similar to Persian and Arabic when reading a professional Dari translation, which is surprising. However, Dari is more familiar with Tajiki than Persian. The phonetics and conjugations are not different from Persian. Additionally, Dari stresses syllables more often than Persian.
  • Secondly, Dari uses two vowels o and e. These are not present in the same set of languages. Furthermore, Dari also uses diphthongs such as aw and ai. These are irreplaceable in the language. In addition, Turkic languages also carry the majority of Dari’s attributes. However, Persian grammar is significantly different from Dari grammar.
  • A linguist must identify the Dari dialect to provide a professional Dari translation. The principal dialects include Herati Dari, Tajiki Dari, Kabul Dari, Khorasani Dari, and Pariswan. Initially, literary pieces such as books and poems use the dominant group of dialects Yazd Dari and Kerman Dari.
  • Moreover, Dari uses the ezafa market to combine nouns and adjectives to form a noun phrase. The term “ezafa” means extra. Since the Dari adjective comes before the noun, here is how to use it. For example, apple (seb) and red (surx) combine to become a “red apple” or seb-ɛ sʊrx. Ɛ denotes the ezafa marker.
  • Lastly, Dari pronouns use the same logic as English. The speaker is the first person, and the recipient is the second person. Everything else incorporates the third person pronouns. The subject agrees with pronouns at all costs. Common Dari pronouns are من, تو, او, ما, شام, آنه. He, she, and it use the same pronoun.

Surprising Facts about the Dari language

  • Dari and Pashto are two official languages of Afghanistan.  However, Afghanis prefer Dari. The language belongs to the Northwestern Iranian sub-category. Dari has multiple similarities with Kurdish, Balochi, and Gilaki. Therefore, the languages are very confusing. Afghanis call Dari a Persian sub-dialect. It is also called “Eastern Persian.”
  • One-third of the Afghani population, roughly around five million people, speaks Dari. Furthermore, at least 2.5 million speak Dari collectively in Iran and Pakistan. Unfortunately, the Iranian version of Dari is almost extinct as it has been replaced with Persian.  Thus, endangering its existence.
  • Dari holds immense importance in Afghani society. Besides being a national language, it is the standard communication language between Afghanis who speak different dialects and languages. Primary schools teach Dari across Afghanistan. Songs, poetry, and national radio stations use Dari as well.
  • Dari began surfacing in the sixth century BC.  It resulted from the Cyrus Parthians defeating the Personas and Zoroastrian priests. Soon after, Persian lands commonly spoke Dari. It became the official language at the Sassanid courts. Later on, the Muslim invasion in the sixth century AD influenced the Dari language. However, during this time, the individuals kept speaking its original form.

What didn’t you know about Afghanistan?

  • Afghanis celebrate the New Year’s on 21st March. The first day of Nawroz marks the beginning of spring. Thousands of Afghanis travel to Mizar-e-Sharif to hoist a flag to welcome the New Year. Assuming the flag hoists in one single motion. In that case, the coming year is successful and fruitful.
  • Afghanistan has a national Olympic sport called Buzkashi. The game involves players on horses competing to grab a goat carcass. The team that successfully drops the corpse in a chalk circle wins the game. The game dates back to wealthy warlords financing airline and mobile phone companies. Unfortunately, the sport is not for the faint-hearted.
  • Alexander the Great’s wife, Roxanne, was from the Afghan Balkh province. His wife was the only woman to capture the empire’s heart. The Macedonian kingdom was very proud of its queen, maturity, and looks. Roxanna gave Alexander his only son before the conqueror died at the young age of 33.
  • Bamiyan caves in Central Afghanistan are home to the first oil paintings ever. These date back to 650 BC. The cave illustrations present the imagery of a flourishing Buddhist empire from the second century. The civilization lasted until the 9th century, before the Islamic invasions.

Impressive service overall. I needed a document professionally translated and I’m glad I chose this company to do the translation. The translation itself is accurate and precise and took about a day or so to the the final draft of the translation. The best part about it was submitting the documents online which is extremely convenient. Would definitely use them again if I need other documents translated.
