How do you spell "Freedom" in Farsi?

I'll try and not forget this time.

Freedom in Persian is "AZADI" - Persian in "farsi" is acftually "parsi" - Iranians call it "parsi" really - but Arabs don't have an "p" so it become "f"arsi..

Is it "Azadi"? I'm just doing it phonetically.

See #153 and #156. I'll bow to #153 on pronunciation, but there may be regional differences. My wife says she speaks Tehrani (pn. "teh-run-ee") Farsi.
