Abstract
Anjavi Shirazi was the first person to collect and record the middle Persian, especially Pahlavi language in a dictionary. Farhang-i Jahangiri (1005-1017 AH) has recorded a number of words of the Pahlavi language and writing. After Anjavi, these words have been recorded in other dictionaries, especially in the Borhan-e Qate. Some of these words are used in the language with the same pronunciation and some of these are Huzvāriš whose pronunciations are different from those recorded in the dictionary. For example, what was spelled in Borhan-e Qate as "Basrya" was pronounced "Gusht". The Europeans in the 19th and 20th centuries read them with a degree of error. Since the pronunciations of many of these Huzvāriš have been recorded in the Indian dictionary of the eleventh century in Arabic script, the study and comparison of these spellings with new scientific findings will be very useful and will solve many problems.
