Abstract :
Language is the means of communication among people. Gilaki language is one of the branches of Pahlavi Ashkani
language i.e. Parti, which is spoken in the north of Iran and the south parts of the Caspian Sea. Gilaki language and English
language are included in the Indo-European branch of languages in language classifications. In this paper similar
vocabularies in Gilaki and English languages are investigated. Among found vocabularies, some are completely similar
both in terms of phonetic and semantic; some are semantically similar but phonetically different and some are phonetically
similar but semantically different. And finally some words have slight differences both phonetically and semantically.
