My wife is Persian and her parents and I sometimes struggle to speak. I found your channel wanting to learn Persian to better communicate with my wife’s family AND when we have kids be able to help pass the culture into them… won’t hurt being able to talk about stuff in front of others without them knowing what we are talking about!

[@HeptaLanguages]

I'm Persian and my American boyfriend found this, I've been sitting and watching it from the very beginning till the end and I just can't get enough of it. It's everything I wish my first grade teacher had taught me

[@christiancarter255]

I'll have you critique me when I've finally formed full paragraphs. 😅

[@Manuel-th7zb]

I started learning Farsi one month ago, and i was so stressed because i did not found a really compelling method for some time. But your guide with the guide created by the University of Austin are some of the best guides out there to learn farsi. Thank you, thank you very much!

[@chai_and_conversation]

Manuel, thank you so much! I actually live in Austin, and I agree, their program is wonderful! Thanks for joining us.

[@10ZizouZidane]

I live in Austin and have been considering using theirs as well! Is it worth it?

[@MissAnyway]

im a filipina, got married to a british iranian husband, he has a moderate farsi and can't read persian alphabet either, so i decided to learn it myself and this video is awesome, been listening it whole day and i learned "aA" & "bB" in writing. shown it to my husband🤩 voila!! hopefully by the end of the month i will learn more

[@derekgreen7319]

I am fascinated by persian/farsi. I've learnt French and Spanish but I plan to spend some time with this amazing language.

[@damankaur1355]

This channel is god sent! You made Persian so much easier to approach. Thank you so much!

[@ceamean]

Not to interfere but I think you need to have be writing on a line at this stage. I can imagine many foreigners getting confused where the base line is and where the letters should be in relation to it

[@Derzolus]

True that.

[@erickavelez5186]

Wow! I really am drawn to your teaching style. You make it so exciting and easy to understand! I think I will binge-watch each of these lessons 🤣🤣 Please make more videos, I really enjoy them! :D

[@Sharak19]

This is how I quickly learned how to read Japanese. First I learned the main vowels, and after that it was a breeze repeating all the consonants with the vowels. I wish you had a workbook or something. Repetition is key to retaining the information. Repeat, the vowels until you have memorized them. Then repeat them with consonants aleph be or de and so on. I am Persian and Farsi was my first language, but I never learned how to read it or write it, and it is so mind-boggling now because on one hand, I am so familiar with the language on the other hand learning to read it feels like I am learning an alien language. It makes my brain hurt.😊

[@chai_and_conversation]

I do have a workbook! Each of these lessons has a PDF guide- you can sign up on our website www.chaiandconversation.com for the reading and writing program

[@rimyllesalves6708]

Thanks a lot! It was a very useful lesson. You explain so clearly!

[@user-li8qh4tv9t]

I watched all the videos starting from last to first. I agree that this is the best system to learn Parsi.

[@yas-hl2zr]

[@jimsteele8946]

Yay I always wanted you to focus on written Persian. بارك الله

[@imsoboredrightnowlol]

Going to be trying out your program as a crash course to get me prepared for DLI, if it works well for me I'll be doing my best to let my supervisors know so that hopefully they can incorporate your program into an introductory phase for people awaiting classes like myself (have over a month before classes start). I'm not an expert linguist yet but I'm aiming to be and from what I've gathered so far, this seems to be a very beneficial program you have. Definitely appreciate the content.

[@chai_and_conversation]

Reed, so cool!! Will you write me at [e-mail] and we can talk there? I'd love to hear more about your program, and what I can do to make this program even more useful to people like you. There's a lot more reading and writing content coming up too

[@TheClanOfHari]

So enjoyable and practical

[@hibanafutuba9223]

I find Persian easy to learn because I'm Arabic from Algeria and the Arabic letters are similar to Persian

[@ziaulhaque4462]

Can we be friends? I am from India and i am learning both the languages

[@محمدشمشادی-د1ه]

[@whatyouwontseeontv8266]

Kheili mamnoon!

[@youmissed0-2]

I've also married an Iranian. She can speak Persian but not like her parents. My wife was born in Iran but moved to Germany when she was 1-2 yrs old. Unfortunately, she can't help me with the alphabet because she can't read or write nor does she know the alphabet. I've decided recently to learn to read, write and speak but it's rather difficult to learn the alphabet and then the medial and the final form. To say in short, I'm heading a hard time right now.

[@solmazbagheri2823]

Need any help??

[@sophiaabrao6057]

Very nice.Love it!

[@longyun68]

nice explanation !

[@havefunbesafe]

Fascinating...thank you.

[@Jahangeer82]

Mersi!

[@Yohann_Rechter_De-Farge]

Please help for accent َ how it is pronounced exactly

[@narutoshippuden3677]

Will this course help with speaking in Farsi as well? Or is there another course for this on your channel?

[@HakendaNatan]

good

[@verveblack]

im confused as in most languages the name of the letter is the same as the sound of the letter in a way...doesn't learning the name of the letter help with sound learning down the road?

[@lunet1st488]

I'm learning persian and probably not. In Russian the i with a line in it is called I kratkoe. But you don't need to know that. I presume its the same here.

[@qasir.hussain-khel6407]

Woow super

[@boyanhardal417]

HELLO , MISS LEYLA ! I AM , EXTREMELY IMPRESSED ! FROM YOUR LESSONS ! AND, FROM YOU, MISS LEYLA ! PLEASE , WRITE TO ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE ! THANK YOU !

[@christiancarter255]

Thank you so much. I have a Persian girlfriend, who I want to impress, and who is superb at English, and so I'm learning her Persian language.

[@A.n.i.s.]

Hello . Thanks 4 this nice teaching Could you please teach english 4 us ( my mother tongue is Persian:)💕

[@TheKindAAliDrawer]

سلام دوست عزیز.شما خیلی عالی هستین.من یک سوال دارم.

[@ijahnnakehlam5919]

Is this similar to Dari? I am trying to find good videos on Dari, and I really like how you teach, but I don't know if it is similar to Dari.

[@محمدشمشادی-د1ه]

فارسی دری بدرد شما نمیخورد. این فارسی استاندارد است

[@Studio_bluetick]

من ایرانی هستم و شعر های فارسی رو دوست دارم مثل شاهنامه و گلستان سعدی و ... یکی از بهترین اثر شاعران ماست یک سوال آیا ایرانی هستی؟

[@ceissiferreira4745]

Saalam

[@fernando7517]

Why do you type 'oo' instead of 'u' and 'ee' instead of 'i' ?

[@chai_and_conversation]

it aligns more with the phonetics

[@Tb08-59]

Is it easy?

[@bambi9935]

I am confused :( i am reading "complete persian (modern persian/farsi)" by Teach Yourself and they mention there are no capital letters ?

[@Qeswara]

no need of it!

[@MAKhan-fr6ox]

will you teach me?

[@3almoon]

احساس میکنم اومدم پیش دبستانی (:

[@Rambowers]

I’m confused because you pronounce Alef as ahhh but then when you say the word “ab” for water you pronounce it ahhb but you put an accent over the “A” as if it makes the sound of “A”

[@sarasadr4904]

Alef is one of the few letters in the alphabet that has has a name that differs in pronunciation from the way it is actually read in a word. Like the letter O in Pot or Undo or Other; the letter O in these words doesn't sound like the way its name is... I don't know if that explanation helps :)

[@mahdiehtahmasebi3235]

Farsi is very easy so you can learn it🥲💕 فارسی خیلی راحته پس میتونی یادش بگیری😄

[@dlenker]

I love you

[@sza_US]

You are not correct when you say that four letters in Persian do not occur anywhere else. Urdu has all letters from Farsi and more (a total of 39 letters)

[@sleezzzyp]

I thought the 1st letter of the alphabet was "Alef" ?

[@HeptaLanguages]

it is!

[@hafidh23]

Who else are also joining the boot camp?
