Intro: In the twenty-third episode of the Dingo podcast, we take a look at an ancient city of Iran, Shiraz, and its linguistics. We will answer the question of what the original language of this city was and whether it bears any resemblance to the language spoken there today. In this episode, we'll talk about everything from Hafez and Sa'di to the "controversial issue" of the pronunciation of the "Gas Square" in this City of Love and Roses. Stay with us.

Produced and presented by Mani Parsa, in collaboration with Shahriar Siami.
