The New Unabridged
English-Persian Dictionary (5 volumes)
by Abbas Aryanapur, Manoochehr Aryanpur
we really need to understand IRAN and the Persian / Farsi culture:
Here are snippets (from various sources) of some discussions and a list of great dictionaries:
1. Iran is a multilingual and diverse cultural society, and the majority of the population is extremely young. Nearly one-half of the people speak Farsi, and another one-fourth speak some other Indo-European language or dialect.
2. Iran is a country in southwestern Asia. It has an area of 636,300 square miles (1,648,000 square kilometres). It is bounded on the north by Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkmenistan, and the Caspian Sea, on the east by Pakistan and Afghanistan, on the south by the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman,
3. Farsi is a Persian language - member of the Iranian branch of the Indo-Iranian language family; it is the official language of Iran. It is most closely related to Middle and Old Persian, former languages of the region of Fars ("Persia") in southwestern Iran. Modern Persian is thus called Farsi by native speakers.
4. Remember -- UNDERSTANDING THE LANGUAGE and the PEOPLE, can only lead to better interactions and a better future for all, so look at the books on Iran/Persia, and consider getting truly familiar with the language.

Tajik-English/English-Tajik Dictionary & Phrasebook
Joseph Conroy / Paperback /
Published 1998 -- The author writes: " Tajik is closely related to
Farsi (Modern Persian), but with many Russian and Uzbeki loanwords. Our
purpose in producing this book was to provide Western visitors and
businessmen with a trustworthy series of sentences about various
everyday situations. Throughout the book there are notes on Tajik
culture and history. In this century alone, Tajik has been written in
three alphabets: Arabic, Roman, and Cyrillic (Russian). "
