Language reformation is one of the most controversial reformations in the process of modernization. In this regard, language engineering is considered as a risky social-political experimentation in any country. In Iran, The Berliners, an influential school of thought in Iranian intellectualism, were the pioneer of the reformation of Farsi. Through their activities including treatises, journals, and conferences in Iran and Europe, they formed the most active intellectual group of Iranian immigrants in the contemporary time. Exploring their publications reveals they have adopted a pathological approach to language-related problems and have proposed practical and reformational solutions to problems. Their publications took a moderate policy to describing the challenges faced by Farsi and criticizing the reformation of Farsi. Regarding the importance of The Berliners and their publications in the modernization of Farsi, the present paper explores the role of the publications made by The Berliners on language engineering in Iran.
