Mr Elwell-Sutton's book provides a simple grammatical framework for contemporary written Persian. It is based on the characteristic idiom and phraseology of the language as it is used in newspapers, magazines and novels. The student is introduced to Persian script from the first lesson. Words are fully vocalized in the early lessons, but vowels are progressively discarded; they are, however, shown in the vocabulary. The letter-forms of printed Persian are used cursive scripts. Although the structure of the language is Mr Elwell-Sutton's immediate concern, he has given close attention to the need for acquiring a workable vocabulary. The examples and exercises thus require only a limited vocabulary of words in fairly common use - about 1500 in all. The student is also given help with pronunciation; at the ends of lessons sample sentences from the exercises are printed with diacritics showing the intonation and stress of each syllable. At the end of the book there is a key to the lessons.

Delivers more than what one usually finds out there
By A Customer
I've generally been disappointed with many of the Persian language tutorials. Most have been little more than phrase books which teach little about grammar or about writing the language. Thankfully, this book provides a very good foundation in Farsi. I would recommend it as a must-have supplemental text. For the next stage, look up the texts by A.K.S. Lambton (Persian Vocabulary, and Persian Grammar).

Good for the beginner, and better than most books
By T. Kieselhorst
Like some other reviewers, I have tried learning Persian from several books (not including Thackston's); so far, I've found this book to be the best.
The first major obstacle for me was learning how to write the alphabet. It's not enough for books to introduce the letters one by one in type, since the letters, as with the Roman alphabet, are handwritten differently from how they appear in print. Although I ended up using an Arabic textbook to learn the basic shapes of letters (the excellent _Alef Baa_), I was glad to see that Elwell-Sutton's book includes "hand-drawn" illustrations with arrows showing exactly how to draw each letter (books like Abrahams' _Modern Persian_ do not). Lesson IV helpfully groups the letters according to basic shape and number of dots or extra strokes, and then relists them according to phonetic value. A section on punctuation marks used in Persian writing is also included. This thorough instruction on writing in Persian is necessary--it's hard even to get started with many books because they neglect to include it.
Another major advantage of the book is that it systematically includes short vowel and other signs that signal how to pronounce words, until it can be presumed that the words have been mastered. (Some books include these signs when the words are first introduced, but omit them thereafter.) Further, while some books that emphasize spoken Persian spell certain words in the Persian script as they are colloquially pronounced, this book does not confuse the reader with alternative pronunciations/spellings. For my part, I'd rather learn to pronounce words at first very formally (e.g., "Bebakhshid"--"Excuse me"--instead of the more colloquial "Bebakhshin," or "aanjaa" instead of "unjaa"), than learn to read and spell words as if I were always in conversation.
Other advantages to this book: (1) An answer key to the exercises is provided (for some books, the key must be bought separately). (2) In the English-to-Persian exercises, the reader is asked to use only those expressions and words that have been taught in the preceding lessons. If an expression is rendered in Persian using words difficult for an beginner to anticipate, those words are provided in the English statement to be translated (for example, in Lesson VIII: "During (In) this period . . ." and "At the end (In the last parts) of the sixth century B.C. . . ."). (3) Simple translation exercises at the beginning, which turn progressively harder--none of that analyzing complex sentences from the beginning. (4) Useful vocabulary lists--although it is necessary to spend some time with them, as they can include sixty or more words for one chapter.
I've been very pleased with this grammar: It's well organized and suited to the language learner who wants familiarity with some subtleties and exceptions to rules, but who also wants not to get bogged down in them and to make quick progress in learning the language.

Not the best choice
By John Kennedy
While more accessable than the frustratingly over-detailed Lambton, this book still focuses too much on archaic rules of grammar, often presented in an unintelligable manner. The reading excercises are outdated ie "His August Imperial Majesty opened..." and contain vocabulary which is questionably useful for the beginner. Because it is attempting to equip the reader to deal with classical as well as modern texts, much of the grammatical information and vocabulary is not necessary for active use, although this is not made clear and many modern usesages are overlooked or mentioned only in passing. Thackston is the book to use for the beginner who whishes to make quick and satisfying progress in the language and perhaps Lambton for those who want an obscure reference grammar. This book, unfortunately serves neither purpose adequately.
