Abuzaydabadi dialect

Abuzaydabadi (Persian: ابوزیدآبادی) is a dialect of Soi and the language of people in Abuzaydabad, a city in central Iran. The language is called [Abuzaydabadi] by Persians, and it is called Bizovoy or Bizovoyja in Abuzaydabadi language itself.

The dialect has its own unique vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation, which differ significantly from standard Persian. According to linguist Ali Asghar Ghodrani, the Abuzaydabadi dialect preserves many archaic features of the Persian language, which have been lost in the modern standard dialects.[1][2]
