some of the words that I can think of off the top of my head with similarities to English words:

Madar = mother

daukhtar = daughter/girl

pedar = father

baradar = brother

man = me

tou = you (or rather “tu” the familiar you in french which I think it’s still related to the same root word)

setareh = star

mah = moon

lab = lip

abroo = eyebrow

chooneh = chin

and of course basicly the number count.

There’s much much more to have fun with, but my brain function has slowed down this late at night!

That list you made, the words are almost identical to those used in Hindi/Sanskrit and most other Indian languages.

“Sanskrit, Latin, Avestan are all sister languages, and the present day upper Indian, Persian and European languages are related eg. Baradar in Persian = Brata in Sanskrit = Brother in English. “Persia” is actually a late European term for the land of “Farsi” language ie. Iran.

The Arabic phase in Iran only began 1300 years ago, and we had to escape to India to preserve our Zoroastrian religion.”
