This is thepronunciation key forIPA transcriptions of Persian on Wikipedia.

It provides a set of symbols to represent the pronunciation of Persian in Wikipedia articles, and example words that illustrate the sounds that correspond to them. Integrity must be maintained between the key and the transcriptions that link here; do not change any symbol or value without establishingconsensus on thetalk page first.

Notes

[edit]

^Persian consonants can begeminated (doubled), especially in words fromArabic. This is represented in IPA by doubling the consonant:[sejjed].
^Also anallophone of/p/ beforevoiced consonants.
^Also an allophone of/k/ beforevoiced consonants.
^Also an allophone of /x/ before voiced consonants.
^غ and ق denoted the original Arabic phonemes in Classical Persian, thevoiced velar fricative[ɣ] and thevoiceless uvular stop[q] (pronounced in Persian asvoiced uvular stop[ɢ]), respectively. In the modernTehrani accent (both colloquial and standard dialects), the phonemes of غ and ق are allophones; when/ɣ/ (spelled eitherغ orق) occurs at the beginning or the end of a word, after a consonant and at the end of a syllable, it is realized as avoiced uvular plosive[ɢ]. When /ɢ/ (also spelled eitherغ orق) occurs intervocalically, it is realized as a voiced velar fricative[ɣ]. The allophone is probably influenced byTurkic languages likeAzeri andTurkmen. The sounds remain distinct in Persian dialects of southern Iran and Eastern Persian dialects (Dari andTajik).
^^a ^b ^c ^dThe unvoiced stops/p,t,tʃ,k/ areaspirated much like their English counterparts: they become aspirated when they begin a syllable, but aspiration is notcontrastive.
^Also an allophone of/n/ beforebilabial consonants.
^Atrilled allophone[r] occurs word-initially (Spanish, Italian, or Russianr; it can be in free variation between a trill[r] and a flap[ɾ]); trill[r] as a separate phoneme occurs word-medially especially in loanwords of Arabic origin as a result of gemination (doubling) of[ɾ]. Only[ɾ] occurs before and after consonants; in word-final position it is usually a free variation between a flap or a trill when followed by a consonant or a pause, but flap is more common, only flap before vowel-initial words.
^Whileو is pronounced[v] in Iranian Persian, it is pronounced as[w] in Dari.
^[v] is also an allophone of[f] beforevoiced consonants.
^Also an allophone of/s/ beforevoiced consonants.
^Also an allophone of/ʃ/ beforevoiced consonants.
^Moreover spoken before all initial vowel onsets (as in ایران [ʔiːˈɾɒːn] (Iran))
^Velar nasal[ŋ] is an allophone of/n/ before[g],[k],[ɣ],[ɢ], and[x] in native vocabulary.
^Stress falls on the last stem syllable of most words. For the various exceptions and other clarifications, seePersian phonology § Word accent.
^^a ^b ^c The three short or unstable vowels are actually short only in open, non-final syllables. In other environments, their length is equal to the long vowels (Toosarvandani, Maziar Doustdar (9 November 2004)."Vowel Length in Modern Farsi"(PDF).Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society.14 (03):241–251.doi:10.1017/S1356186304004079.).
^^a ^b ^cIn the modernPersian script, the "short" vowels/æ/,/e/,/o/ are usually not written, like in theArabic alphabet; only the long vowels/ɒː/,/iː/,/uː/ are represented in the text. That, of course, creates certain ambiguities.
^[e] is also a word-final allophone of/æ/ in contemporary Iranian Persian.
^Only word finally, when it forms thesilent he.
^The Farsi/e/ is different from any English vowel, but the nearest equivalents are the vowel ofbait (for most English dialects) and the vowel ofbet; the Persian vowel is usually between the two.
^Only when it forms thesilent vav.
^The level of roundedness may vary.Campbell (1995) writes simply/ɔː/, butMajidi & Ternes (1999) describe it as "underrounded" but write/ɒ/ anyway. The vowel may be written as/ɑ/ as well.[1]^{[dead link]}[2]^{[dead link]}
^The number and even the existence of diphthongs in Persian are disputed (Alamolhoda, Seyyed Morleza (2000)."Phonostatistics and Phonotactics of the Syllable in Modern Persian".Studia Orientalia.89:14–15.ISSN 0039-3282.).
^/ou/ becomes[o] in the colloquial Tehrani dialect but is preserved in other Western dialects and standard Eastern Persian.
