Abstract:

This book arose from a need for an accessible, up-to-date and comprehensive
descriptive grammar of Dari, one of the statutory national languages of
Afghanistan and considered today to be the country’s lingua franca. It differs
from previous publications in presenting an independent account of Dari as a
language in its own right, complete with data on the socio-linguistic
attitudes of speakers themselves, sample texts in a variety of genres,
standard IPA notation, morphological glosses, and both Roman and Perso-Arabic
script throughout.

The book is divided into six sections: the sociolinguistic context, phonology,
morphology, syntax, the lexis, and texts. The variety of Dari under discussion
is a neutral register of the colloquial language of Kabul, now regarded as the
standard.
