Meaning
معنی۱
Iranians inside Iran usually call themselves irâni. The diaspora often layers identities: irâni-amrikâyi (Iranian-American), irâni-tabâr (of Iranian descent). The word "Persian" in English maps to فارسی (fârsi) for the language and to ایرانی for the people, though some diaspora Iranians prefer "Persian" in English for cultural and historical reasons.
