Talk:Esfahān

[edit] Requested delete
As Esfahan is the "correcter" alternative spelling of Isfahan (according to Encyclopedica Britannica), please delete this so Isfahan can be moved here. MadMaxDog 14:37, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Strange name
In the opening paragraph the city is called Eşfahān. What is that ş letter? I know that ص has a special sound in Arabic, but isn't ص in Persian the same as the regular s? I can't find this transcription anywhere at Persian language or Persian phonology.
I'm changing it to Esfahan. --Amir E. Aharoni 12:15, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
