Persian language has had a significant influence on other languages, especially in the regions where it was spoken or used as a language of culture, literature, and administration. Some of the languages that have been influenced by Persian are:
Arabic: Persian and Arabic have a long and complex relationship, as both languages belong to the same linguistic family (Indo-Iranian) and share a common cultural and religious heritage (Islam). Persian was influenced by Arabic after the Muslim conquest of Iran in the 7th century, and adopted many Arabic words, especially in the fields of religion, science, and administration. However, Persian also influenced Arabic, especially in the fields of literature, poetry, and philosophy. Many Persian words and expressions were borrowed or translated into Arabic by Persian writers, scholars, and poets, such as Ferdowsi, Rumi, Khayyam, Avicenna, and Biruni. Persian also influenced the dialects and accents of Arabic spoken in some regions, such as Iraq, Bahrain, and Oman.
Turkic: Persian and Turkic languages have a long and close relationship, as both languages were spoken by neighboring peoples and empires, such as the Seljuks, Mongols, Timurids, Ottomans, Safavids, and Mughals. Persian was the language of culture, literature, and administration in many Turkic states, and influenced the vocabulary, grammar, and script of many Turkic languages, such as Turkish, Azerbaijani, Uzbek, Turkmen, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and Uyghur. Many Turkic words and expressions were also borrowed or translated into Persian by Turkic writers, scholars, and poets, such as Nizami, Rabi’a Balkhi, Babur, and Navoi.
Indo-Aryan: Persian and Indo-Aryan languages have a long and deep relationship, as both languages belong to the same linguistic family (Indo-Iranian) and share a common historical and cultural origin (Indo-European). Persian was the language of culture, literature, and administration in many Indo-Aryan states, especially in South Asia, where it was introduced by the Persianized Turkic and Afghan invaders, such as the Ghaznavids, Ghurids, Delhi Sultanate, and Mughals. Persian influenced the vocabulary, grammar, and script of many Indo-Aryan languages, such as Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Punjabi, Sindhi, and Kashmiri. Many Indo-Aryan words and expressions were also borrowed or translated into Persian by Indo-Aryan writers, scholars, and poets, such as Amir Khusrow, Ghalib, Iqbal, and Tagore.
