In Python 3 all strings are Unicode characters.
You can use str.encode() method too -
"สวัสดีชาวโลก!".encode(encoding="UTF-8").
RE: typing farsi (persian) in python - snippsat - Feb-20-2017
As mention bye Wavic,Python 3.x did make big changes to Unicode.
When you inside Python 3.x are strings Unicode characters.
All Unicode work like regular string,because that what they are.
Eg:
>>> s = "สวัสดีชาวโลก!"
>>> s
'สวัสดีชาวโลก!'
>>> type(s)
<class 'str'>
>>> s = s + 'a'
>>> s
'สวัสดีชาวโลก!a'
>>> s.count('ด')
1
>>> s.count('a')
1Out and in of Python we have to use a encoding.>>> with open('uni.txt', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f:
... f.write(s)
...
14
>>> with open('uni.txt', encoding='utf-8') as f:
... print(f.read())
...
สวัสดีชาวโลก!aQuote:i want to write farsi text in SQL table?The advice is to keep
utf-8 all the way in and out(also with database).

Quote:i don't understand your codeIt's just copy of farsi text from waic post,and doing test with it in interactive shell.
You can do the same,you know that Python has a interactive shell?
Use code tag.
Here a picture of my tkinter window,running Python 3.6

Maybe already the first post has the answer.
Set into your code:
barname.title('عنوان'.encode(encoding="UTF-8"))
tyLabel = Label(barname,text="راوند".encode(encoding="UTF-8"))Could this work?

In Python 3 are all strings sequences of Unicode character.This give you bytes:
>>> text = "راوند".encode(encoding="UTF-8") >>> text b'\xd8\xb1\xd8\xa7\xd9\x88\xd9\x86\xd8\xaf' >>> # Correct >>> text = "راوند" >>> text 'راوند'Look at my picture,i just copy code from @gray post and run it.
It has correct correct text in GUI window.

Okay, that's no good then, sorry.
However, If I run the code gray had given, I got a different result: the text inside the window seems to be okay, but the barname is replaced by small boxes.

In your script/program first line is something like this:
#!/usr/bin/env python3. Be sure that it's python3 not just python.
