Dari [dæˈɾi] is a Northwestern Iranian ethnolect spoken as a first language by an estimated 8000 to 15000 Zoroastrians in and around the cities of Yazd and Kerman in central Iran. The ethnolect is often overlooked by linguists because the region is predominantly Muslim and because Dari is primarily spoken (rarely written).Dari is also known as Gabri (sometimes Gavrŭni or Gabrōni) or Behdināni. Dari has numerous dialects. It is incomprehensible to speakers of standard Persian.
