Translate Farsi to Dutch

Farsi (Persian) shares the Arabic script but is grammatically an Indo-European language — surprisingly making it a distant relative of Dutch. Despite this deep historical connection through Proto-Indo-European, the languages have diverged enormously over millennia. Farsi is SOV with ezafe constructions (linking nouns to their modifiers), uses Arabic script written right-to-left, and has a complex verb system with prefixed and compound verbs. Farsi has no grammatical gender and no articles, while Dutch requires both. For the significant Iranian community in the Netherlands, Dutchified provides accurate translations that understand Farsi's unique grammar and script.
