Here are some tips on a general Persian accent, the speaker I listened to was from Iran and so, he was a native Farsi speaker but, you know, you get different flavors in Afghanistan or wherever else you look for a general Persian accent. But the oral posture, the tongue is very thick and flat in the mouth, there's not a lot of jaw action. So, you can feel your tongue very think and very heavy in the tongue you're almost already there. If you sigh through the sound you get that oral posture right and you sigh through it, it's like an sound, that's the thinking sound in this general Persian accent where in American English we'd say. In your oral posture for Persian it's.
So, in your Persian accent the T, Th and D sounds become very dentalized, so, that, this, they, dentalized meaning your tongue is right up against your teeth. That, this, they, time, try that. Z sounds become unvoiced to a S sound, so plans in an American English accent would be plain, very short and devoiced at the end. In the same token, V sounds turn into the unvoiced version F sounds, so instead of have you have haf. So, in American English we'd say words like didn't, and hadn't there's nasal plosion so you get some air out of the nose, didn't, hadn't. In your Persian accent it would be didn't, hadn't, no nasal plosion, all the sound comes out the mouth, didn't, hadn't, give that a shot. There's that eh, e, transition, so words like animal, English, become animal, English, English, instead of English, English. And animal, animal, imal, give that a shot.
A lot of ?? sounds, so a lot of two element American English sounds like o, as in goat and own become pure, like goat, own. An own American diphthong as in about and thousand, become about and thousand, a, a, pure sounds, single sounds. Play with a tapped R for your Persian accent, so when you say the word Iran, you can say Iran, and sometimes the accent of that word changes so sometimes it's Iran and sometimes it's Iran, Iran, Iran.
So what's the musicality of this Persian accent, there aren't a lot of unstressed syllables and you hear that in words like animal, animal, and complain, instead of complain, you've got complain, you get a lot of stress on all of the syllables. So, the feeling of the accent is a little bit like this, a little more monotone than a general American accent but don't take my word for it, listen to some native Persian speakers and see what you get from them.

In this video we start by comparing Indian writing system (Devanagari) to Pahlavi script and Old Persian Cuneiform, describing Old Persian Cuneiform briefly, and then reading a few words of Behistun Inscription written in Old Persian Cuneiform.
After that, following a question arising from reading Behistun Inscription, we discuss a little about New Persian Phonology, and briefly about New Persian Orthography. Then we talk about Pahlavi and Avestan scripts, and we start reading Kārnāmag i Artaxšēr i Pāpagān.

As the title indicates, this song is a desert/arabic/persian themed song. Persian instruments mixed with orchestrations and epic percussions and choirs. The ending is pretty massive.
This song was made with FL studio 10 with several different virtual instrument libraries (EastWest/Quantum Leap, Best Service, Bela D Media etc.).

Middle Persian
Middle Persian is the Middle Iranian language/ethnolect of southwestern Iran that during Sassanid times (224–654 CE) became a prestige dialect and so came to be spoken in other regions of the empire as well. Middle Persian is classified as a Western Iranian language. It descends from Old Persian and is the linguistic ancestor of Modern Persian.
Middle Persian consisted of several dialects and variants. One of these variants was called Pahlavīk (Pahlavi) which stands for Parthian, and refers to the Middle Persian that was the language of the Arsacid Dynasty. Another variant of Middle Persian, known locally as Pārsik, was the official language of the Sasanian Dynasty. Most scholars refer to the latter variant when using the term "Middle Persian".
The native name for Middle Persian was Pārsīk (later Pārsīg) translating to "language of Pārs". It consists of Pārs (local name of the Persis province) + adjective suffix -īk ("having to do with"; from PIE -(i)ko and related to Greek –ikos, French –ique, Slavic –isku; e.g. Āsōrik "Assyrian", etc.). The word is consequently the origin of the native name for the Modern Persian language—Parsi or Fārsī.

In this video we start by comparing Indian writing system (Devanagari) to Pahlavi script and Old Persian Cuneiform, describing Old Persian Cuneiform briefly, and then reading a few words of Behistun Inscription written in Old Persian Cuneiform.
After that, following a question arising from reading Behistun Inscription, we discuss a little about New Persian Phonology, and briefly about New Persian Orthography. Then we talk about Pahlavi and Avestan scripts, and we start reading Kārnāmag i Artaxšēr i Pāpagān.

Prof. Albert de Jong - Their masters’ voice? The genesis of Zoroastrian Persian literature
Professor Albert de Jong - Professor of the Study of Religion, Leiden University Centre for the Study of Religion Their masters’ voice? The genesis of Zoroastrian Persian literature Abstract: In spite of its obvious drawbacks, Zoroastrian Middle Persian in the Pahlavi script remained the chief vehicle of Zoroastrian literary production for centuries after the Arab conquests. It is attested not only in the production, in the ninth century, of a whole library of priestly texts (the “Pahlavi books”), but it is also well attested in documentary (legal, economic) texts and in inscriptions. The production, both in terms of copying old texts and of composing new ones, of this literature in its own script continued for centuries, but came to be accompanied by the production, first, of literary te...

The History Of The Persian language
Persian (/ˈpɜrʒən/ or /ˈpɜrʃən/; فارسی fārsi [fɒːɾˈsiː] is the predominant modern descendant of Old Persian, a southwestern Iranian language within the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European languages. It is primarily spoken in Iran, Afghanistan (officially known as Dari Persian since 1958 for political reasons), and Tajikistan (officially known as Tajiki Persian since the Soviet era for political reasons), and some other regions which historically came under Persian influence. The Persian language is classified as a continuation of Middle Persian, the official religious and literary language of Sassanid Persia, itself a continuation of Old Persian, the language of the Achaemenid Persian Empire. Persian is a pluricentric language and its grammar is similar to that of many contemporary E...

Their masters’ voice? The genesis of Zoroastrian Persian literature
Abstract: In spite of its obvious drawbacks, Zoroastrian Middle Persian in the Pahlavi script remained the chief vehicle of Zoroastrian literary production for centuries after the Arab conquests. It is attested not only in the production, in the ninth century, of a whole library of priestly texts (the “Pahlavi books”), but it is also well attested in documentary (legal, economic) texts and in inscriptions. The production, both in terms of copying old texts and of composing new ones, of this literature in its own script continued for centuries, but came to be accompanied by the production, first, of literary texts and then of texts meant to instruct or represent Zoroastrianism for a lay audience. Both the maintenance of the complicated Pahlavi script and the production of Persian literary and educational texts have usually been interpreted in starkly functional terms. Interestingly, quite similar developments of Jewish Persian literature may suggest different possibilities of understanding. This paper will attempt to move beyond the functionality of these developments, and probe these shifts for what they can show us about the double process of participating in, and remaining separate from, wider Iranian society.
Presented at The Subalterns Project, The First Workshop – on the pre-Safavid period, held at the University of Edinburgh, 7-8 November 2015.

Several reconstructions in full from ancient fragments.
The Book of the Giants was published in not less than six or seven languages. From the original Syriac the Greek and Middle Persian versions were made. Also known as The Book of Giants or the Book Of Og (Vir-Og-dad) it's about the Giborim, the sons of the Nephilim, the Fallen Angels, it features a full summary of the interesting "Dream Sequences" (parables) of the giants, via the Interpretations of several professional theologians. Reading from The Book of Giants found in the Qumran Caves, the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Ka-Wan of the Manichaeans, we'll reconstruct the full story, and examine several key aspects. GIANTS AT THE NORTH POLE /EDEN? The book of giants, or known as the book of Og (ogres), states that 32 or 36 towns were built for the wicked sons of the giants near Mt Sumeru, at the North Pole. They were taken there to spare them from the war betwen the giants and the angels. Another name for the area is Aryan - Vedan,'Aryan - Weyzan' in Indo-Iranian. According to the ancient texts, these people originated the arts and crafts and built weapons for a war between the giants and the angels. The book of Enoch, and the Apocalypse of Baruch (and many other texts) are considered 'OT Apocrypha', and are kept out of the modern bible. Enoch is part of the original 88 books of the bible.
From Wikipedia: "The Book of Enoch (also 1 Enoch, Ge'ez: መጽሐፈ ሄኖክ mätṣḥäfä henok) is an ancient Jewish religious work, ascribed by tradition to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah, although modern scholars estimate the older sections (mainly in the Book of the Watchers) to date from about 300 BC, and the latest part (Book of Parables) probably to the first century BC. It is not part of the biblical canon as used by Jews, apart from Beta Israel. It is regarded as canonical by the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church, and it is wholly extant in the Ge'ez language, with Aramaic fragments from the Dead Sea Scrolls and a few Greek and Latin fragments. For this and other reasons, the traditional Ethiopian belief is that the original language of the work was Ge'ez. The books author was Enoch himself, before the Biblical Flood. The authors of the New Testament were familiar with the content of the story and influenced by it: a critical part of the bible, a section of 1 Enoch (1 En 1:9 or 1 En 2:1 depending on the translation) is quoted in the New Testament (Epistle of Jude 1:14–15), and is attributed there to "Enoch the Seventh from Adam" (1 En 60:8). The text was also used by the community that originally collected the Dead Scrolls Canonicity and was evidently widely known during the development of the Hebrew Bible Canon. The biblical story revolves completely around the book of giants and the book of Enoch as without these tales it lacks context.
Note the mention of the Kephalia, the montrosity that controls the ebb and flow of tides and weather. This is also in an upcoming piece of mine.
wn.com/The Real Book Of Giants
Several reconstructions in full from ancient fragments.
The Book of the Giants was published in not less than six or seven languages. From the original Syriac the Greek and Middle Persian versions were made. Also known as The Book of Giants or the Book Of Og (Vir-Og-dad) it's about the Giborim, the sons of the Nephilim, the Fallen Angels, it features a full summary of the interesting "Dream Sequences" (parables) of the giants, via the Interpretations of several professional theologians. Reading from The Book of Giants found in the Qumran Caves, the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Ka-Wan of the Manichaeans, we'll reconstruct the full story, and examine several key aspects. GIANTS AT THE NORTH POLE /EDEN? The book of giants, or known as the book of Og (ogres), states that 32 or 36 towns were built for the wicked sons of the giants near Mt Sumeru, at the North Pole. They were taken there to spare them from the war betwen the giants and the angels. Another name for the area is Aryan - Vedan,'Aryan - Weyzan' in Indo-Iranian. According to the ancient texts, these people originated the arts and crafts and built weapons for a war between the giants and the angels. The book of Enoch, and the Apocalypse of Baruch (and many other texts) are considered 'OT Apocrypha', and are kept out of the modern bible. Enoch is part of the original 88 books of the bible.
From Wikipedia: "The Book of Enoch (also 1 Enoch, Ge'ez: መጽሐፈ ሄኖክ mätṣḥäfä henok) is an ancient Jewish religious work, ascribed by tradition to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah, although modern scholars estimate the older sections (mainly in the Book of the Watchers) to date from about 300 BC, and the latest part (Book of Parables) probably to the first century BC. It is not part of the biblical canon as used by Jews, apart from Beta Israel. It is regarded as canonical by the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church, and it is wholly extant in the Ge'ez language, with Aramaic fragments from the Dead Sea Scrolls and a few Greek and Latin fragments. For this and other reasons, the traditional Ethiopian belief is that the original language of the work was Ge'ez. The books author was Enoch himself, before the Biblical Flood. The authors of the New Testament were familiar with the content of the story and influenced by it: a critical part of the bible, a section of 1 Enoch (1 En 1:9 or 1 En 2:1 depending on the translation) is quoted in the New Testament (Epistle of Jude 1:14–15), and is attributed there to "Enoch the Seventh from Adam" (1 En 60:8).

Iranian cuisine or Persian cuisine is the traditional and modern style of cooking in Iran.
Situated in West Asia (also known as the Middle East) with a diverse population, the Iranian culinary style is unique to Iran, though has historically both influenced and has been influenced by Iran's neighboring and conquered regions at various stages throughout its history. Specifically, these have been mutual culinary influences to and from Turkish cuisine, Azerbaijani cuisine, Kurdish cuisine, Caucasian cuisine, Mesopotamian cuisine, Levantine cuisine, Greek cuisine, Central Asian cuisine, and minor aspects from Russian cuisine.
Turkish cuisine, Azerbaijani cuisine and Iranian cuisine on the other hand have heavy mutual influence on each other, due to geographical proximity, ethnic relations are the second largest ethnicity in Iran) many common cultural aspects, shared empires, and conquerings by such as the Achaemenids, Sassanians, Seljuks, Safavids, Afsharids, Ottomans and Qajars.
Fresh green herbs are frequently used along with fruits such as plums, pomegranates, quince, prunes, apricots, and raisins. Typical Persian main dishes are combinations of rice with meat, such as lamb, chicken, or fish, and vegetables such as onions, various herbs, and nuts. To achieve a balanced taste, characteristic Persian flavorings such as saffron, dried lime, cinnamon, and parsley are mixed delicately and used in some special dishes.
ranian cuisine includes a wide variety of foods ranging from Chelow kabab (rice served with roasted meat: barg, koobideh, joojeh, shishleek, soltani, chenjeh), khoresh (stew that is served with white Iranian rice: ghormeh sabzi, gheimeh, fesenjān, and others), āsh (a thick soup: for example āsh-e anār), kuku (vegetable soufflé), polo (white rice served alone or with the addition of meat, vegetables and herbs, including loobia polo, albaloo polo, sabzi polo, zereshk polo, baghali polo, and others), and a diverse variety of salads, such as Shirazi salad, pastries, and drinks specific to different parts of Iran. The list of Persian recipes, appetizers and desserts is extensive. A famous Iranian dish with sheep brain and hooves is called Kaleh Pacheh.

Persian (/ˈpɜrʒən/ or /ˈpɜrʃən/; فارسی fārsi [fɒːɾˈsiː] is the predominant modern descendant of Old Persian, a southwestern Iranian language within the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European languages. It is primarily spoken in Iran, Afghanistan (officially known as Dari Persian since 1958 for political reasons), and Tajikistan (officially known as Tajiki Persian since the Soviet era for political reasons), and some other regions which historically came under Persian influence. The Persian language is classified as a continuation of Middle Persian, the official religious and literary language of Sassanid Persia, itself a continuation of Old Persian, the language of the Achaemenid Persian Empire. Persian is a pluricentric language and its grammar is similar to that of many contemporary European languages. Persian is so-called due to its origin from the capital of the Achaemenid empire, Persis (Fars or Pars) hence the name Persian (Farsi or Parsi).
There are approximately 110 million Persian speakers worldwide, with the language holding official status in Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. For centuries, Persian has also been a prestigious cultural language in other regions of Western Asia, Central Asia, and South Asia by the various empires based in the regions.
Persian has had a considerable (mainly lexical) influence on neighboring languages, particularly the Turkic languages in Central Asia, Caucasus, and Anatolia, neighboring Iranian languages, as well as Armenian, Georgian, and Indo-Aryan languages, especially Urdu. It also exerted some influence on Arabic, particularly Bahraini Arabic, while borrowing much vocabulary from it after the Muslim conquest of Persia.
With a long history of literature in the form of Middle Persian before Islam, Persian was the first language in Muslim civilization to break through Arabic's monopoly on writing, and the writing of poetry in Persian was established as a court tradition in many eastern courts. Some of the famous works of Persian literature are the Shahnameh ('Book of Kings') of Ferdowsi, works of Rumi, Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, Divan ('miscellany') of Hafiz and the two miscellanea of prose and verse by Sa'di of Shiraz, the Golestān (lit., 'flower garden') and the Būstān (also meaning "garden;" lit., 'a place of fragrance').
Persian belongs to the Western branch of the Iranian family of Indo-European languages, which also includes Kurdish, Gilaki, Mazandarani, Talyshi, and Baluchi. The language is in the Southwestern Iranian group, along with the Larestani, Kumzari, and Luri languages.
Persian, the historically more widely used name of the language in English, is an anglicized form derived from Latin *Persianus Latin Persia Greek Περσίς Persís "Persia", a Hellenized form of Old Persian Parsa. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the term Persian as a language name is first attested in English in the mid-16th century. Native Iranian Persian speakers call it Fārsi. Farsi is the Arabicized form of Pārsi, due to a lack of the 'p' phoneme in Standard Arabic (i.e., the 'p' was replaced with an 'f'). The origin of the name Farsi and the place of origin of the language which is Fars is, of course, the Arabicized form of Pârs. In English, this language has historically been known as "Persian", though "Farsi" has also gained some currency. According to the OED, the term Farsi was first used in English in 1926, while Parsi dates to 1790. "Farsi" is encountered in some linguistic literature as a name for the language, used both by Iranian and by foreign authors.
In South Asia the word "Farsi" refers to the language while "Parsi" describes the people of Persian origin, particularly Zoroastrians.
