Persian to English translation tips
- Persian uses subject–object–verb word order, while English is subject–verb–object, so the AI restructures whole sentences instead of substituting words one by one.
- Persian is written in the Perso-Arabic script, written right to left, and English uses the Latin alphabet, so the translator converts between writing systems for you.
- English requires an explicit subject in nearly every sentence and marks questions with word order, so translations into English often need pronouns and auxiliaries that the source language leaves out. Persian has genderless pronouns, one word covers he and she, and verbs come last, so translations into gendered languages must infer who is meant.
- Persian is written right to left in a Perso-Arabic script, but it is grammatically unrelated to Arabic; it has its own vocabulary, verb system, and no grammatical gender at all.
- Formal writing and polite conversation, especially with elders or in business, use the plural second person شما (shomā) instead of the informal تو (to); the translator defaults to a neutral-to-formal register, so specify 'informal' for casual chat.
- Persian uses the ezafe construction, an unwritten -e/-ye link between a noun and what follows it (like 'ketāb-e man', 'my book'), which has no direct one-word equivalent in English and is handled automatically by the translator.

How accurate is AI Persian to English translation?
The translator uses a modern AI language model that understands context, so Persian to English results read more naturally than word-for-word tools. English requires an explicit subject in nearly every sentence and marks questions with word order, so translations into English often need pronouns and auxiliaries that the source language leaves out.

Is my text kept private?
Your Persian text is sent securely for translation and is not stored as raw content. There are no ads and no tracking cookies.
How much Persian text can I translate at once?
You can translate up to 2,000 characters of Persian per request. For longer documents, translate them in sections.
Is this Iranian Persian (Farsi), or Dari/Tajik?
The translator targets Iranian Persian (Farsi), the standard form used in Iran. Dari (Afghanistan) and Tajik (Tajikistan, written in Cyrillic) are closely related but differ in vocabulary, pronunciation, and, for Tajik, script.
Does the output include short vowel marks?
No. Like standard everyday Persian text, the translation omits vowel diacritics and relies on the consonant skeleton plus context, the normal way Persian is written outside of school primers.
