The Giləki language (According to Encyclopedia, the Gilaki language is considered as a Persian dialect, related to Middle Persian(PAhlavi) ) is an ancient and living Caspian language, and a member of the northwestern Iranian language branch, spoken in Iran's Mazanderan and Gīlān Provinces.
It has at least three dialects: Western Gilaki, Eastern Gilaki, and Galeshi (in the mountains of Gilan). The Gilaki language is closely related to the Mazanderani, and the two languages have similar vocabularies. The western and eastern dialects are separated by the Sefid River. According to Ethnologue, there were more than 3 million native speakers of Gilaki in 1993.
Gilaki also shares many features and structures with Zazaki, now spoken in Turkey and the Talysh language. There are some grammatical differences between Gilaki and standard Persian, especially in possessive and adjectives. Unlike Persian, most possessives and adjectives precede the head noun, similar to English.
Gilaki has the same consonants as Persian, but different vowels. Here is a table of correspondences for the Western Gilaki of Rasht (as will be the variety used in the remainder of the article):
