Simultaneously with the significant progress in compiling "The Comprehensive Dictionary of New Persian," which was a treasury of vocabulary, little Kourosh's mind turned to another pillar of his invented language; a pillar that, if not firm, would cause the entire structure of the language to collapse: the writing of grammar rules. He knew well that a language, no matter how rich and numerous its vocabulary, could not become a powerful tool for communication, education, and the spread of knowledge without a clear, logical, and understandable grammar for all. Therefore, he began work on the book "The Guide to the Writing of New Persian"; a work that was intended to bring order to words, structure sentences, and pave the way for the expression of complex thoughts.
The process of compiling a grammar required a greater depth of thought and insight. Kourosh, drawing on his extensive knowledge of modern linguistics brought from the twenty-first century, sought fundamental, universal, and logical principles instead of following the complex, irregular, and sometimes contradictory rules of ancient languages that only skilled scribes could comprehend. He thought about how sentences are formed, the subtle relationship between words, and the phonetic changes that alter meaning. His goal was to structure a language that was both fluent and natural for speech and efficient and precise for writing, so that no one would be confused in expressing their intent.
In the solitude of his paper-making workshop, he spent hours thinking about sentence structure, verb conjugations, the pluralization of nouns, and the use of pronouns. How could tenses be expressed in the simplest way possible, without adding unnecessary complexities? How could the relationship between words be shown clearly and with minimal signs? Kourosh wanted "The Guide to the Writing of New Persian" to be a book that would eliminate linguistic complexities and turn learning into an intuitive and enjoyable experience, not an endless struggle with rules and exceptions. He had come to believe that simplicity was the key to the spread of knowledge.
Through his trusted nurses and young scribes, he examined examples of the rules of the Sumerian and Akkadian languages and compared their contrast with the simplicity and logic he desired. He saw how, in those languages, a verb could have dozens of different forms, or a noun could take on a different meaning with countless variations. This comparison made him more resolute in his determination to create a flawless and efficient system. Every rule that was formulated was based on logic, simplicity, and efficiency, so that it could be quickly absorbed into the mind, easily applied, and become a universal tool.
The advantages of a simple and logical grammar were perfectly clear to Kourosh. An efficient grammar would dramatically increase the speed of learning the new language and make it possible to teach it to a wider audience, from peasants to merchants. This would not only help to spread literacy and public awareness but would also greatly increase administrative efficiency. Messages would be transmitted more clearly and without ambiguity, documents would be written more accurately and legibly, and communications between different regions of the future empire would become smoother and faster, which in itself would contribute to the stability and power of the government.
With every page of "The Guide to the Writing of New Persian" that was completed, Kourosh saw how the invisible pillars of order and efficiency were taking shape in his dream empire. This book was a powerful tool that gave ordinary people the power of comprehension and expression and freed them from ignorance. It also gave administrators and officials the necessary tools for effective, transparent, and unambiguous governance. This was the cornerstone of an advanced administrative system that prevented chaos and misunderstanding and strengthened the foundations of a just government.
Alongside this great work, Kourosh also thought about the inseparable connection of this book with "The Comprehensive Dictionary of New Persian." These two books were complementary; one provided the vocabulary, and the other, the rules and the correct way to use them. With these two works in hand, anyone could master a new language, step into the world of knowledge, and benefit from the treasures of wisdom. This was the beginning of the path to creating a literate, informed, and thoughtful society based on the foundations of reason, logic, and knowledge.
