Talk:رعیت

pronunciation

@Sameerhameedy Shouldn't the transcription be "ra'iyat"? Exarchus (talk) 22:56, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

@Exarchus, abadis (Iranian dictionary) lists (ra'yat). But Tajik and Classical dictionaries list (ra'iyyat). I was confused about the Dari pronunciation because ayn always assimates in colloquial Dari. The Iranian pronunciation doesn't look correct but abadis is the only Iranian dictionary I know. Feel free to change it if you wish. - سَمِیر | Sameer (^{مشارکت‌ها} · ^بحث) 23:11, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

@Exarchus, @Sameerhameedy: Hi. We have some Persian reference templates, which already link to Persian online dictionaries. This one has Steingass, Hayyim

https://dsal.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/app/persian_query.py?qs=رعیت&matchtype=default

You can see both "ra-iyyat" (Hayyim) and "raʻīyat" (Steingass)

Langenscheidt gives "ra'ijjat" (=ra'iyyat) https://en.langenscheidt.com/persian-german/رعیت#رعیت

Yes, Tajik is раият (rayiyat)

I don't see "ra'yat".

The combined Urdu dictionary gives "raʻīyat" (Platts), "raʼaﻌiyat" (Shakespear), raiyatī for رعيتي (Fallon) Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 06:09, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

@Atitarev Dehkhoda (offline a few days ago) gives [ رَ عی یَ ], I suppose this is "ra'yat" Exarchus (talk) 09:47, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

@Exarchus: Based on various dictionaries, there are multiple possibilities. I've made three for Iranian. Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 23:39, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
