Talk:پرده

Is there an acute on Parde, as in the film [1]? Aaadddaaammm (talk) 13:03, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

This is a matter of transcription. Scientific transcriptions are parda, pardah, parde, pardeh, that is without acute. But given the fact that the stress is on last syllable it is not unreasonable to transcribe pardé. There's a lot of variation at any rate.

Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *polto- (“cloth”). Compare Persian پرن (paran, “silk cloth”).--Chernell (talk) 13:41, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
