Hi everyone! Iโm Alisha. |
Welcome to Conversational Phrases! |
Weโve found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that youโll use in real conversations. |
In this lesson, weโll learn conversational phrases to answer the question โHow's your mother?โ After watching this video, youโll be able to talk about well-being and ask how someone is doing. |
Now, letโs take a look at some conversational phrases! |
Listen to the dialogue. |
ุณูุงู
ุญุงู ู
ุงุฏุฑุช ฺุทูุฑูุ |
(salaam haal-e maadaret chetore?) |
ุฎูุจู. |
(khoobe.) |
Once more with the English translation. |
ุณูุงู
ุญุงู ู
ุงุฏุฑุช ฺุทูุฑูุ |
(salaam haal-e maadaret chetore?) |
โHow's your mother?โ |
ุฎูุจู. |
(khoobe.) |
โShe's fine.โ |
First of all you'll need to learn how to say โHow's your mother?โ |
That's: ุณูุงู
ุญุงู ู
ุงุฏุฑุช ฺุทูุฑูุ |
(salaam haal-e maadaret chetore?) |
Listen to it again: ุณูุงู
ุญุงู ู
ุงุฏุฑุช ฺุทูุฑูุ, ุณูุงู
ุญุงู ู
ุงุฏุฑุช ฺุทูุฑูุ |
(salaam haal-e maadaret chetore?, salaam haal-e maadaret chetore?) |
This Persian sentence literally translates as โHello feeling your mother how?โ |
But it translates as โHow's your mother?โ in English. |
Now, how do you answer this question? |
The pattern is: |
{state of well-being} ูู. |
({state of well-being} e.) |
This Persian sentence literally translates as โ[state of well-being] is." We omit the article "she". |
But it means โSheโs [state of well-being].โ in English. |
For example: |
โShe's fine.โ |
ุฎูุจู., ุฎูุจู. |
(khoobe., khoobe.) |
