Dari forms one of the three main pillars of the Persian language and culture in the Persephone or Persianate world.
Darī (Dari: دری) or Dari Persian (فارسی دری Fārsī-ye Darī) or synonymously Farsi (فارسی Fārsī) is a variation of the Persian language spoken in today's Afghanistan. Together with the Iranian Persian and Tajik dialects of Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, it forms one of the three main pillars of Persian language and culture in the Persephone or Persianate world.
'Dari' is the term officially recognized, implemented and promoted since 1964 by the Afghan government for the Persian language. Hence, it is also known as Afghan Persian {Fārsī.ye Afghānī} in many western literary sources.
However, many Persian speakers in Afghanistan prefer and use the name 'Farsi' and believe the term 'Dari' has been imposed on them by the dominant Pashtun ethnic group as an attempt to distance Afghans from their cultural, linguistic, and historical affinity and background to the Persian-speaking world, which includes Iran, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

Each term runs for eight weeks, with Term 11 students continuing in Term 1 (2027). Classes meet once per week for 80 minutes. Children's 'Little Linguals' classes are one hour long. Indicated prices are per term (eight weeks).
