Can Persian Speakers Understand Juhuri (Judeo-Tat)?

Juhuri or Judeo-Tat is an endangered language spoken by the Mountain Jews, also known as Kavkazi Jews, the Jewish community of the eastern and northern Caucasus who trace their roots to the Jews of ancient Iran, dating back to the Achaemenid era and the time of Cyrus the Great. The language retains a lot from Medieval Persian, with later influence from other languages.
In this video we will take a look at how well modern Persian speakers from Iran and Tajikistan can understand the Juhuri language, with Batsion and Hilah representing Juhuri, and Chehrona, Alan, and Hossein as the participants from Tajikistan and Iran.

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.

I have always found Jewish languages interesting because they are so similar to their source language but have differences that make them that much more interesting. Yiddish and Ladino are for sure the best know but ever since I discovered Juhuri I have always found it wildly fascinating. So it obviously ended up on my "wish I could learn" list of languages (it's a very long list by now). Juhuri also has a fascinating orthography which again just makes it even more interesting.

I just want to clarify to people who read these comments - Tajiks and Hazaras who Speak Persian, and collectively make up 3/5 of the population of Afghanistan, refer to their language as Farsi. It is a group of urbanized Pashtuns who moved to major Tajik/Farsi speaking cities such as Kabul, Herat, Balkh, etc. , they abandoned their tribal Pashto language and adopted the language of majority aka Farsi. However they refer to the language as Dari, and this has a political reason behind it, they wanna divide the Persian language on the basis of political borders - Dari the name for Persian in Afghanistan and Farsi the name of the same language in Iran. Pashton nationalists Who were installed as kings and rulers in Afghanistan by the British, in 1964 changed the name of Farsi to Dari in the text books and official documents just to establish a separate identity for themselves from Iran and Farsi.

[@bactrian1442]

​@@allahmuhammad225 Spot on Allah Muhammad. I am someone from Balkh, the birth place of Mawlana Balkhi (Rumi), my people refer to our language as Farsi. When British and Russian Czars decided to create a buffer zone between their territories in the last two decades of 1800s, fraudulent Afghanistan was born and Balkh became a part of it. Tajiks of fake Afghanistan also refer to their geography as Khurasan. But yes, Farsi that is spoken in fake Afghanistan is the same language spoken in Iran, Tajikistan, and occupied Samarqand and Bukhara by Uzbekistan. Pashto on the other hand is a Pakistani language and it is also spoken in southern parts of British created Afghanistan by nomadic Pashtuns. Pashto is synonym with Taliban and their mindset, and I am sure the people of the world know a thing or two about Taliban.

Sir. Do more videos on foreign country languages with Telugu language .and also South Indian languages

[@soheilsadabadi8641]

This is very cool, but I really wish somebody would be there to just clarify to them when they didn't catch the fact that two words were cognate and how the sounds need to be changed.

[@raegitano6345]

Something Bahador should also explore here - Eskimo languages. Besides Yakut.

[@user-zh7yr1up8g]

Perhaps also organize with Judeo-Aramaic languages 😁

It's similar to persian tooooo much specially middle persian

Eşq olsun bizim yəhudi bacı və qardaşlarımıza.

[@jeandurant5908]

As a persian speaker, i found it very amusing at first but it then it slowly become very tiring for my brain. It is like decyphering a jiggsaw puzzle or something like that. It reminds me of a discussion I had with my father and my wife. I said we know that a huge amount of words in modern persian are derived from arabic and for some of them we dont even remember the original persian words. How much would we be lost if we were to go back to pre-islamic Persia...

[@enchantedapple3176]

I guess this is so similar to talish language, especially their accent. Also in Talishi (Towlesh) we call grand mother “de de” and grand dad “da da” and mother “ma ma”

[@user-zh7yr1up8g]

Because Indian languages in the north of the country have a lot of Persian influence

[@EAlyahya]

@@angialexy I thought a Kavkazi is considered Mizrahi isn’t it? Because they are like a subgroup of Persian Jews

[@danielkh7103]

@@angialexy well she is Mizrahi. They remind me of Armenians for some reason. They are eastern/Mizrahi Jews but from the Caucuses region of Dagestan/Azerbaijan which is considered Eurasia in location.

[@Ishay7227]

The hell? Soxdom it’s similar to the past tense in Turkic languages “unuttum” for example

[@allen1584]

Language is disappearing just like the waters of lake Urmia and Dead Sea in Israel.. I am a mountain 🏔 Jew . Was born in Israel , but my family background is from Baku Azerbaijan.. To be honest, I was the only one in my family who was lacking Juhuri _ judeo I was also not really interested, I only knew few words here and there .. I’m 43 years of age now .. Only 3 years ago I began to have a curiosity about my roots .. And from then on it’s like I want to know more about my past heritage.. Purim is coming soon 🔜 and the story of our ancestors happened in Shu Shan ancient Persia beginning of age of monarchy .. it’s not scriptural, but it’s definitely a Megillah a document of our Jewish history of ancient Persia.

You should try Nepali vs urdu/Hindi similarities they’re pretty similar
