History of Tajik
Tajik is a variety of Persian isolated by Soviet borders. While Iran and Afghanistan use Arabic script, Soviet policies imposed Cyrillic on Tajik. The language preserves some archaic Persian features and has Russian loanwords. Tajik poetry continues classical Persian traditions.
Is Tajik Hard to Learn?
Tajik is essentially Persian in Cyrillic script, so Persian speakers can adapt quickly. Grammar follows Persian patterns without cases. The Cyrillic alphabet is the main barrier for those familiar with Persian, but it's phonetic and consistent.
