Can Iranians & Afghans Understand Bukharian?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 тра 2024
- The Persian language has many different dialects. The Bukhori dialect (бухорӣ / בוכארי), which is also known as Bukharian, is a Jewish dialect of the Tajik variety spoken by Bukharian Jews. Can Persian speakers from Iran and Afghanistan understand it? In this episode, Bobby is representing Bukhori. Naghmeh and Dina are the Iranian Persian speakers, with Dina having been born and raised in Kuwait, and Azarakhsh is the Persian speaker from Afghanistan.
گویش بخاری (یا بخارایی) گویشی از زبان فارسی است که در میان یهودیان آسیای میانه کاربرد دارد. آیا مردم ایران و افغانستان این گویش را متوجه میشوند؟
Bukharan Jews, or Bukharian, is a term referring to the Persian-speaking ethno-religious Jewish group of Central Asia. The name "Bukharan" was coined by foreigners in reference to the former Central Asian Emirate of Bukhara, and its predecessor, the Khanate of Bukhara. They natively called themselves "Isro'il" (Israelites).

Although the Bukhori dialect contains many Hebrew loanwords, along with some Uzbek and Russian, the base of it comes from Classical Persian, making it sound very poetic. Historically, Bukhori was written using the Hebrew script but in the 20th century the Latin script was adopted and later on due to the influence of the Soviet Union, the Cyrillic script, with a spelling system originating from Talmudic orthography. In recent times, many Bukharian Jews in the West have began using a modified Latin script similar to the one developed by Bukharian Jewish linguist and writer, Yakub Kalontarov, in the process of reviving Bukhori.
بخارایی دارای شمار وام واژه‌های عبری، ازبکی و روسی است. اگر چه تاریخ کهنی دارد ولی هنوز هم برای فارسی زبانان و یهودیان ایرانی دریافتنی است. از لحاظ تاریخی، بخارایی با استفاده از خط عبری نوشته میشد، ولی در صده گذشته، در پی حضور شوروی، این زبان با خط لاتین و سپس سیریلیک نگاشته شد
The Bukharan Jews are Mizrahi Jews who have adopted Sephardic traditions since Rabbi Yosef Maimon from Morocco settled in Bukhara and became a spiritual leader. It was during this time that he introduced many Sephardic Jewish traditions to the community. Bukharan Jews have taken their traditions and culture with them to other places around the world, and today, most of them reside outside of Uzbekistan and Central Asia, with the majority of them being in Israel and the United States.
The Persian language (Farsi) is an ancient language which has had a huge amount of impact on other languages and cultures, mainly the Middle East, as well as Central and South Asia. Classified as one of the Western Iranian languages, Persian holds official status is Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan, which it is also the native language of many minority Persian communities in other countries. Persian has strongly influenced many different languages, including numerous Turkic languages, as well as well as Armenian, Georgian, and many languages in the Indian subcontinent. Persian has a long history of literature and it was notable for being the first language in the Muslim world to break through Arabic's monopoly on writing. The Persian language has also influenced the Arabic language, although the impact of Arabic on Persian has been higher. - Розваги

Languages binds more than religion
It's proven time and time again
Too easy. Tajik, Dari and Farsi speakers can understand each other perfectly well. Bringing a Balochi, Gilaki or Mazandarani speaker will be more interesting. Maybe also Pashto or Pamiri, but those languages are more distant to Persian variants.
This video made me so happy as an Iranian Jew!! Thank you to all of you!! I love and adore the Persian language and Iranian culture 💕💕
Bukhori is so fascinating! It's like classical Persian with a mix of Hebrew, Russian and Uzbek. It was so cool to see way your guests could figure out everything! There is actually 1 Bukharian Jew left in Afghanistan! I would love to visit Bukhara and Samarkand, and also Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan one day. Thankfully, I am allowed to visit all, except Iran unfortunately, since I'm not allowed now with my passport. Iran is always in my heart and I have learned basic Persian. I really look forward to the day I can visit the beautiful country my grandparents have many amazing memories from! Thank you all!! This was so pleasant and enjoyable!💝🤗
Iranians are Arab, so you're basically Arab jew.

..........
You're ethically the same as Iranians
your name reminds me the Ofra Haza the Israeli singer who represented Israeil in Eurovision long ago
This is great. I am an American Jew of Ashkenazi descent who only grew up speaking English.
Interestingly, I went to high school in Great Neck, NY in the 80s with many Jews from Iran, but never had any inkling then that I would later learn Persian.
What happened is that I studied Russian at university during perestroika and glasnost and graduated just as the Soviet Union had ceased to exist.
I wound up working twice in Kyrgyzstan in the 90s where my Russian became very good, and because I had started down the Central Asia path, I decided to start learning the local languages of the region.
I studied Uzbek in grad school and some Turkish (all super rusty) and then worked in Tajikistan. In Tajikistan, I studied Iranian Persian (Farsi) and used it in the streets of Dushanbe. Farsi, Dari (Afghanistan) and Tajik speakers can all quite easily understand each other.
I am now at about an intermediate speaking level of Persian.
I visited the synagogue in Dushanbe during a service. I can read Hebrew alphabet, but can't speak, though I do know the prayers. I cam with one guy from Israel who is completely not religious, but because he knew Hebrew excellently, he was able to help the locals find the weekly reading portion (Haftarah) in the Torah.
I have also visited the synagogue in Bukhara. There is a school affiliated with it and the students are primarily local Muslims because apparently the quality of education is very good.
I am currently waiting out the pandemic at home in New York. If you come to my area of Manhattan, you will find that most of the barbers are Bukharan Jews (Bukharians). I am hoping to move to Uzbekistan later this year for work on some new projects, including a new university, and I plan to keep working on my Persian and then use my time in Uzbekistan to improve my Uzbek and possibly Turkish as well.
I love following Bahador Alast's videos and the community! Best Wishes to all!
Yeah, for some reason Bukharians, along with Gorski/Kavkaz Jews, have been taking over the barber business in New York. Also a lot of shoe and leather repair businesses and keymaking.
They are following the Greeks.
One minor pedantic correction. The "haftara" is the reading from the Book of Prophets that immediately follows the weekly "parsha" or "sedrah, ("parsha" and "sedrah" is basically the same thing), which refers to the weekly portion of the Pentateuch that is chanted from the Torah scroll, which is handwritten by a scribe and has no vowelization. The haftara is chanted from the printed book, not the Torah scroll and has vowelization. It's all expansively included in "Torah," but when we say "weekly Torah portion" it is understood to mean the parsha from the Pentateuch (then you have the haftara after it).
Damn that is a good story
I have a question about Dari. Is this word related with the name of King Darious?? As I know, Dari is Persian spoken in Afghanistan.
@@user-bz8gg1io7j Dari is short for ”Darbari" which means of the/related to ”Darbar" or "Court/Palace". It comes from the fact that Persian was the lingua franca of the government in that part of the world for millennia. Although it was generally called "Farsi" by its native speakers, it was officially referred to as "Dari" starting from 1964 (in my opinion) to create an artificial differentiation between Iranian an Afghan speakers (just like what happened in Tajikistan at the hands of the Soviets, they named the language Tajiki) for political considerations.
@@hosseinshahni Ok. Thanks for the explanation. So it is not related with the name of king Darious!
As a Persian living in Forest Hills, NY I LOVEDD this video. I went to high school and college with Bukharians and I’d always speak to them in Farsi
Do the Bukharians there consider themselves to be part of the Persian community? I hear on Long Island there are many Persian Jews?
@Kourosh587 I love going to Rego Park for Bukharian food. Do you think they’ll celebrate Nowruz there? It is a fairly religious Jewish neighbourhood and it is almost Passover so I’m not sure if Nowruz will be a thing there
@@fo6748 Bukharians consider themselves a separate community. They wouldn’t identify first as “Persian.” In Great Neck, Long Island there is a very large Jewish community who came from Iran after 1979 - they and their children and grandchildren do consider themselves “Persians”
Are there any authentic Iranian restaurants in Queens or is Bukharian food like “Taste of Samarkand” the closest I can get?
@Kourosh587 Yes!!! I go to Salute on 108th St
One of the things I learned about Persians, which I respect a lot, is that they value their language and culture so much. Everything else is secondary. This video proves exactly that! Here you have a Jewish guy from Uzbekistan, a Sunni Muslim from Afghanistan, Bahador who is atheist from Iran, and I presume the two Iranian ladies are from a Shi'a Muslim background. Yet, none of them care about any of that. They share the same language and culture and that's what bonds them.
Yes and the same is true for Indians as well. You will find similar sentiments among Punjabi and Hindi speakers for example who are Muslims, Hindus, Christian, and Sikh. Even Malayalam and Tamil
@@hussaindaud1260 But don't a lot of Indian Muslims want to segregate and be separate?
@@hussaindaud1260 I'm not trying to say anything negative, just what I've heard.
@@joesmith4894 Yeah that is true as well. It's a complex situation. It really depends on the person/family too. Indian Muslims (mostly) and Christians and increasingly the Sikhs with their subsequent Abrahamisation see themselves as seperate and superior to their Dharmic brethren.
@@joesmith4894 they don't. The one chance they had was during Partition, and even that the majority of Muslims stayed in India anyway. The southern Indians especially saw no good reason to move north to an alien climate and culture. India is designed in such a way that gaining prominence in a state is as good as independence, so Muslims have quite a presence in India despite being a relatively small minority (a minority 100 million people large, mind you).
The only Muslims who really want out of India are those in Kashmir, which joined India in very difficult circumstances that haven't been solved to this day.
As for "segregation" you have to understand that Hindu and Muslim cultures are very different and co-existence is very difficult. In a place like India where literal millions of each can be side by side in one place, there has to be separation lest there be violence and misunderstandings (and boy have there been). They can get along in daily life of course like in education, employment, services, crime and sports etc but to actually live side by side in a politically charged India where the ruling coalition is usually pro-Hindu and anti-Muslim (or vice versa in certain places) is nearly impossible. So like any minority (think how New York was divided in the 1900s) they would stick to their own, just to be able to sleep at night.
We haven't even touched on the other kind of discrimination in India, that of gender, economic class and caste, which adds an even more divisive layer to the topic.
the one thing people can generally agree on in India (apart from cricket) is language. There have been several Indian languages featured on this channel, which is one of the rare places outside of a news studio or a non-Indian based panel show where one might find people from different faiths casually discussing something positive and agreeable.

When are Kurds in Iran going to liberate their land and bring it back from the Iranian regime?
Do Tati as well. Because Jews in the Caucasus (Mountain Jews) speak Tati, a Persian dialect. Some Muslims and Armenians also speak it in the Caucasus.
Tati is a bit harder I think. It’s more Middle Persian, but would be interesting.
@@IranAzadLoading tati very close to persian. tati is one of new iranian languages like tajiki dari and persian
I am an ethnic Tat, and my IG is @hichparez . Feel free to contact me if you decide to do a video with Tat.
@@rhimbdlzad7566 What's it like being Tat in Azerbaijan today, and how come most have been assimilated? Do you guys feel connected to Iran?
@@OhMaDayzz thanks for asking. well, we were unlucky because the area Tats live in are the territories surrounding Baku, and the Absheron peninsula itself used to be populated by Tats with overwhelming majority until the oil boom. After the Russians set up oil industry here, many people from turkic-speaking western provinces immigrated to Baku for work, and this lead to immense assimilation. After that, during Stalin's reign, Azerbaijani was made the only local language with official status alongside Russian, and any official usage of other languages such as Tat & Talysh was dismissed. Most parents stopped talking to their kids in Tati, as they feared it would be hard for them to get along at school and find jobs, therefore the majority of the members of our last two generations do not speak, or barely speak the Tati language.
When it comes to connection with Iran, the views are very different. For example, when I first learned that our roots are from Iran, I was pretty surprised and I got obsessed with Iran and even learned some Farsi. That was when I was 13-14 years old. But I started to look at it more constructively later, for me, people living in modern-day RoA feel culturally closer than most Iranians. After all, most Tats also see it this way, we feel more Azərbaycanlı (a person from Azerbaijan) than anything else, even more Azeri than Tat. But I have to say there is a very small minority who talks about stuff like Eranshahr, and how Iran is the homeland of all of us. I hope I could answer your question :)

@@curiousmind8510 Sal'aam Rehmatullah Wa' Barakatu. Yes, you most certainly would, given the closeness between Uzbek and Persian. Like I was saying to Bahdur, the Turkic people for Central Asia had a lot of influence on the Indian Subcontinent- from the early Sultanate in Delhi, to Babur (who incidentally was a fellow country man,from Ferghana). 😀 What you call Hindi, is actually Hindustani, a patois spoken by the common folk, influenced by dialects from North India, Farsi, Arabic and Turkic even. Unfortunately, in a wierd way, in today's global age, we forget that we were Global, well sort of, even back then.

Thank for making this episode❤️
Love your channel in general but this is by far my favorite video!!
My entire family watched it and loved it- My dad who is half Bukharian, half Persian couldn't stop smiling throughout
Amazing job Bobby representing the community!!
Very happy to hear that!! 😀
This is so beautiful...thank u guys
I’m so curious about Bukhori since I have some Bukharian friends and neighbors, so thank you!!
You always bless me up with the exact languages I’m interested in. Thank you!!
This is the video I enjoyed listening and watching the most since I started watching on UA-cam! Not enough words to express thank you!!!!!!!!❤❤❤
This channel is so great, at certain points I got goose bumps. So much deep and mixed culture, I like that so much, just my flavor of taste.
i’m iranian i’m impressed with the girl on the left. she really understood so much more like than i did lol 😂
She lives in Turkey and my dialect that I was speaking here is heavily influenced by Uzbek, another Turkic language. Uzbek and Turkish are very similar so she speaks Turkish as well and it would be easier for her to understand central Asian Persian
Thank you for this video! I have family from Bukhara
Thank you Bahadour for this episode u have no idea how important it is
سلمولي ع البخاري
So good. I really enjoyed watching this video
I love Bobby! What a fun guy!!
Very educating, many kind thanks Bahador
Wow. It’s was great. Very well done. Much love for what you do.
I love this. Thank you!
This was so beautiful, Bahador. As an Arabic and Hindi/Urdu speaker, this was wonderful to watch 😊. It is amazing to see how a language variety can survive despite migration and diaspora to far away places and national borders
Thanks
So entertaining! Nice job everyone
@Bahador Alast
I love this video I’m also bukharian Jew and I’m very happy that you showed us the difference and the similarities between the dialects, when I listen to Farsi it sounds like a french to me, I can understand only a few words and sentences. For my opinion Bukharian/tajik Jews language sounds like old Persian and yes it also has a lot of Uzbek, Aramaic and old Hebrew words...
Bahador I have a request for you...
please make a video that shows the difference between the Bukharian Jews dialect and the Tajik dialect, I knew that a lot of people say and think that its the same language but when I was in Tajikistan and I spoke to Tajiks in my dialect I had to repeat a sentence several times to be understood...
@@mohammadpanjshiri694
To be honest with you in this video when Bobby speaks to the Persian speakers in Bukharian he tries to use the tajik accent and dialect to make them understand him better, for example when he talks to them he says the word “gap” : “gap zadan”, “gap bizanim”, this is the tajik dialect... in bukharian it is turns to “gav/gaw ” : “gav zadan” “gav mezanim” “gav zasode”.
And the word “zabon” it’s turns to “zavon” = tong/language...
For the record if this topic is interesting you
you can watch this video it is about bukharian Jews language and you’ll understand what I mean....

Нет, неправда. В бухаре гап заднем, Гап задашиштем. Забон по Бухари будет тоже забон или збон. Я сам Бухарский таджик, мне уже около 70 лет, и ты не знаешь тему, это просто предвзятость и не уважение к Бухарскому таджикскому языку с твоей стороны. 850
I haven't watched the whole video yet, but you have such a good idea for a UA-cam channel! Subscribed. :)
Such a wonderful video. ❤️❤️
There are also Iranian in the west coast of India but staying Gujrat for such a long time they accepted the Gujrati language and none them of speak Farsi.
So they have sadly succumbed to the globalist agenda?
Parsis
@@theanti-imperialist1656 no. Ridiculous.
@@iaw7406 facts actually
@@theanti-imperialist1656 no! It's really not any globalist agenda. Actually it's very difficult for them to preserve their language after a long time being a minority which is scattered all over in the state of Gujarat and India. But they still preserved their religion and the major concern is their decreasing population.
I enjoyed the discussion, thanks
I really enjoyed this episode, Bukhari accent is so sweet
Gelek spas, wes u war be, teşekkür ederim, danke schön and thank you. 🙂
I grew up in Tajikistan and had Bukharian Jewish friends. I can 100% understand Bobby! Kheyli mamnoon be baradar ve khaharane Irane Bozourg!!!
Wow! This was so interesting.
I liked the video so much )

Happy Nowruz Day my Persian and Pashtun brothers 🇦🇫🇮🇷🇹🇯
Happy Nowruz! Are you Pashtun? I have many questions based on your name. Did you convert to Zoroastrianism?
@@Leo-qz2zd I’m Pashtun yes and I am born Zoroastrian I’m not converted
@Dardic Kashmir yes because we are very small in numbers but my tribe is Zirak, in Herat
Isn't Pashtun Muslim sunni's how did they apparently became Zoroastrian majusi damn I couldn't understand?
@@afghanzoroastrian7854 Zorastrian born ? Lol Maybe your parents converted? Or they just rejected Islam BC of being Communist ? Zorastrians do not exist in Afghanistan in the open, and if they do they exist only amongst the Persians/Tajiks, but hidden. Even some ancient Christians exist but also hidden.
درود و سپاس. برنامه تان همانند همیشه شیرین و دلنشین بود
This is so cool!!
I very enjoyed your video salam From Indonesia
I love Bobby! Please have him back on, Bahador! His laugh is contagious! Can you also please ask him (hope he sees this) to make a real effort to save his endangered dialect? He can at least record it so future generations can piece it together to recreate it.
واقعا عالییی بود، من از ویدیوهای مقایسه گویش های مختلف زبان فارسیتون خیلی لذت میبرم😆🌹
I would say it's Tajik and the dialect is more Northern (spoken in the Sughd region of Tajikistan). Bukhori is based on classical Persian and it's actually a Judeo-Tajik dialect. My grandparents were born and raised in Bukhara and I have a Bukharian accent when I speak Tajik. If we had a good Tajik speaker here, they could understand it 100%. Thank you so much for putting this together. It is SO important to know that we are all connected and the Persian world is way bigger than what people really think.
This was crazy! I’ve read about Bokhari but never actually had the opportunity to hear it!

Thank you so much
سپاس فراوان 🙏❤️
I am from north of Afghanistan and I understood pretty much everything what he said.
I love this video. As a Malay native speaker, I just only can read the native Persian speakers comments 😌
😍😍
As an Urdu speaker, I find it fascinating that I can understand some of this! Just goes to show how much more similar different people are than what they might think
I speak Urdu too but I have studied Farsi and now I am concentrating on learning Dari. I can recommend learning Dari if you speak Urdu. You can thank me later :-) .
That is because Urdu is an artificial language made up from farsi arabic and hindi.
@@MisterTMHwhat do u mean btly Dari???
Dari is an accent of Persian, but Dari accent is more close to Urdu than others accemt
Wonderful and joyful! - Greetings, Christopher, Denmark
Bobby is a great guy !love to all )
Wow! Just Wow! You Never Disappoint me. Every time I watch your videos it makes me happy. I am personally hearing the Bukhori dialect for the first time. Its soo beautiful. Its a perfect blend of Hebrew, Farsi and Turkish. I Loved the way Bobby narrated that Poem. It had every aspect of those three languages. It even had some similar word from Urdu like "Tez" meaning fast. And as he mentioned "Auqaat/Avqat" is used with a different meaning in many languages. Like in Urdu we use Auqaat for Status too. Anyone who watches your videos regularly will understand most if it. I myself was amazed that I understood some of it thanks to your videos. Keep Up The Amazing Work!
Tez is originally a Persian word to begin with. Also your right about the word "auqaat" having different meanings. I wonder why is that so.
How can we end up with so many different meanings for the same word which originally has to do with TIME as in "waqt". Getting "capacity/ability" from "time" is hard enough but how does one get "food" from "time" lol
@@hussaindaud1260 Yes It is. Urdu is also a Branch of Farsi. But Tez is used very often in urdu as compared to farsi I guess. Especially where I live in Hyderabad, India. Yes I was amazed when he said food. I thought he would say Status.
As a farsi speaker first time i hear “Tez” but i have a guess about “avqat”; used in the past in iran. its maybe cognate with Arabic loan word "ghowah" قوّه (energy/battery) and in farsi its written like قوت
@@azamasim1206 Urdu is NOT a branch of Farsi and neither is it an Iranian language like Farsi, Kurdish, Balochi, Pashto etc. That is a common misconception, my friend.
Urdu is classified as an Indo-Aryan language like Hindi, Punjabi, Sindhi etc although it is HIGHLY Persianized. It is the most Persianized language within the Indo-Aryan language family but that does not mean it is an Iranian language or "a branch of Farsi". Kind of like how English is a Germanic language but it is highly Latinized when compared to other Germanic languages like modern German, Dutch, Swedish, Danish etc.
Urdu is an "Indic" language and a descendant of Sanskirit via "Khari Boli" via Shauraseni Prakrit. I hope this makes sense.
@@JavidShah246 Energy is 'Quwwat' in Urdu as well but we don't use it for battery. Its written same as Farsi قوت. But Auqaat is very commonly used for Status and Waqt is used for time.
What a beautiful video! It was interesting and all the people were so sympathetic and nice. Is the young guy next to you interacting in some other videos? He seemed to be very much into the languages, even though he mostly spoke in the beginning of this clip. Tashakkor mikonam!
Thank you! No, he hasn't been in any other videos. We'd love to have him back again!
love this 🇦🇫🇮🇷🇹🇯
Love love love! You know, a student/listener in a Yiddish linguist's, Max Weinreich's, lecture once said to him: "a language is a dialect with an army and a navy". A language is a dialect that ends up getting formal, conventional, political patronage, but the dialects that formally remain at a dialect level also have so much character, personality and traces of history. This video, to me, was a classic example of that. A special shoutout to Azarakhsh, one of your youngest participants apart from Serena, I imagine! :)
