Does anyone here speak Persian? I want to learn Tajik but my university only offers Farsi, how mutually intelligible are they? The internet says they're basically the same besides some loan words and the script but my friend who lived in Tajikistan until he was a teenager said that Tajik is closer to Uzbek than Farsi

Doesn't sound feasible, as a native Turkic speaker, Uzbek is a language I can somewhat understand unlike anything Indo-European. A dialect of it seems influenced at most
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tajik_language?useskin=vector
>The standard language is based on the northwestern dialects of Tajik (region of the old major city of Samarqand), which have been somewhat influenced by the neighbouring Uzbek language as a result of geographical proximity
>This Tajik–Uzbek bilingualism has had a strong influence on the phonology, morphology, and syntax of Bukharan Tajik
In any case, if u want to learn Tajik, you should learn it instead of another language close to it

Ignore altaic languages on the map, that's highly debated*
