Abstract: A GRR expression for the characters of $A$-type parafermions has been a long standing puzzle dating back to conjectures made regarding some of the characters in the 80's. Not long ago we have put forward such GRR type identities describing any of the level two $ADE$-type generalized parafermions characters at any rank. These characters are the string functions of simply laced Lie algebras at level two as such they are also of mathematical interest. In our last joint paper we presented the complete derivation for the $D$-type generalized parafermions characters identities. Here we generalize our previous discussion and prove the GRR type expressions for the characters of $A$-type generalized parafermions. To prove the $A$-type GRR conjecture we further our study of $q$-diagrams, introduced in our last joint paper, and examine the diagrammatic interpretations of known identities among them Slater identities for the characters of the first minimal model and the Bailey lemma.
