Khorasani Arabic is a
dialect of Arabic spoken in Iran. It is a variety of
Central Asian Arabic spoken in a few villages in the
Iranian province of
Khorasan.[2] Khorasani Arabic is not taught in school and is not widely spoken by the
Khorasani Arab community.
According to
Kees Versteegh, there are between 5,000 and 10,000 Khorasani Arabic speakers. Khorasani Arabic may be related to
Central Asian Arabic. It is influenced by Persian.[3]
