What will be more useful in the future, learning farsi or arabic?
Saturday, September 3rd, 2011I am very interested in middle eastern culture and would like to learn one of the two languages. I am also studying international finance and economics so I would hope that learning one of the languages would help my career. I know more people speak arabic but i have heard that farsi is more of an aristocratic language in the middle east. I do understand that they are different languages form different regions but how closely related are they?
