Avestan, the language of the Avesta, is an Old Iranian language that is attested in two dialects differing from each other both chronologically and dialectologically. whereas most of the Avesta is in Young Avestan dialect the G?th?s and Hapta?h?iti and four Most Holy Prayers are composed in the archaic dialect we call Old Avestan.The verb d?dan is from the root d?- in Old Iranian languages which means to give, to grant, to offer; to put, to place, to lay. But according to a content largely observed in the archaic language of the Old Avesta, this root can include the other meanings.
