That's really sweet!!!
Shadow Bringer Well said, my friend. We’re proud of you.

For anyone interested in Shahname, there is this phenomenal Persian podcast called "Fedowsi Khani". The host is an Iranian doctorate in literature. He reads and explains Shahname from the beginning.

برای کسانی که به شاهنامه علاقهمند هستن، پادکست فارسی عالی ای به نام «فردوسی خوانی» هست. مجریش یه دکتر ادبیاته. از اول شروع به خوندن شاهنامه میکنه و توضیح میده.
True story: When I was living in Iran in the mid ’70s, I once attended an opera. It was in Italian, put on by a traveling company. At one point in the opera there was a knock on the door and someone onstage said, “Who is it?” In Italian that’s “Chi è?” (similar to “Key A” in English). The Iranian audience immediately burst out laughing. The performer was bewildered, since the line wasn’t meant to be funny.
Why the laughter? It turns out that in colloquial Persian, “Who is it?” ( کیه ) is pronounced virtually the same as in Italian. So the local audience thought the Italian performers were joking with them by throwing a little Persian into the opera!
Awesome story
That was hilarious! We use "ki" in colloquial Persian and "ke" in bookish Persian for "who". "Če-kasi" (what person) is also used in formal Persian. The Persian word for "(it/he/she) is" is "e" in colloquial Persian and "ast" in formal Persian. "Hast" is also used in the sense "(there) is, exists", but also "is".
What is the colloquial Persian phrase for that?
It's "Ki e?", @@HH-qc7io.
And in Hungarian, "Who's it?" is "Ki ez?". It's strange, since Hu. isn't even an Indo-European language...
I've bought a Persian textbook out of curiosity and because I like Iranians and Iran very much and I'm surprised how easy this language appears to be. I'd like to learn it some day. Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱❤🇮🇷.

@@mahyars2731 Bardzo się cieszę :) Przez krótki czas miałem współlokatora Irańczyka. To był spoko gość, niestety nie zdążyłem go poznać dobrze. Cieszę się, że do Polski przyjeżdża co raz więcej Irańczyków. Uważam, że nasze kraje i narody łączy dużo więcej niż się Polakom i Irańczykom wydaje.
@@plrc4593 Tak, na pewno, a Polacy są bardzo mili i gościnni, szczególnie w porównaniu z innymi krajami Europy Zachodniej.
Iran ma wiele do zobaczenia i odkrycia i mam nadzieję, że odwiedzisz i spędzisz dużo czasu w Iranie!
@@mahyars2731 ☺ Chciałbym kiedyś odwiedzić Iran, najlepiej po tym jak się już nauczę podstaw języka :D W ogóle żałuję, że się nie nauczyłem perskiego rok, albo dwa lata temu, teraz by mi się przydał - bo sporo się u Was dzieje ostatnio ciekawych rzeczy :P
Lubię Iran, bo uważam Iran za cześć szeroko pojętego europejskiego kręgu kulturowego i europejskiej cywilizacji. Tak jak Turcję, tylko w jeszcze większym stopniu. Dodatkowo Irańczycy i Polacy są ze sobą spokrewnieni. Jesteśmy Indoeuropejczykami, a nasze języki są satemowe. To oznacza, że Irańczycy są prawdopodobnie bliżej spokrewnieni z Polakami niż np. Niemcy.

@𓄂𓆃𓉱𓁩Persian Gulf Warrior𓁪𓉱𓄂𓆃 I have Persian on my list of languages to learn. I think will settle down to learning it in several years. ;) Currently I struggle to learn Russian because I'm interested in war in Ukraine, situation in Russia etc.

My beloved native language Farsi/ Dari
In writing there are no differences between the Farsi and Dari , but there are some differences in accents and pronunciations of some words
And we all understand each other’s like American English and British
Nice and easy and thanks for the video🇦🇫❤️
I teach Persian language. Check out my channel 🌼
what is your opinion on tajik? is it too russified
For Urdu Speakers, I think learning Persian is a piece of cake! We are already familiar with most of the verbs, nouns, expressions and even some grammatical rules (which most people don't even know). No new sounds to learn, exactly the same script, a lot of common Arabic loan words and the list goes on. Gonna learn Persian when i get done with my Studies!
they also speak Farsi in eastern China in Xinjiang province , the majority speak Mandarin and ughyer but a small amount speak a form of farsi , its not the same as farsi , its got a lot of mandarin loan words but it is mutually intelligible , they would be able to understand farsi if they speak very slowly

The Dark Jamie haha i'm a persian speaker i can definitely help! I would happily teach anyone :)
where are you from?
Feel free to ask for help if you have not already given up)
We used to speak French, Arabic and Farsi at home. I used Farsi to say "I am gonna visit a friend" because you don't have to mention male or female like English. In French or Arabic while saying you're visiting a friend you have to mention the gender.
Intelligent!
You just abused the language 😂
😂😂😂 Having he/she pronouns is useful when watching movies/dramas but yea not having it in Persian is pretty useful too! :)))))
We can do that in English as well, but cautious parents would give a follow-up question: Boy-friend or Girlfriend?
😂 then u visit the girlfriend
I’m an Iranian teacher of Farsi. In addition to “hā” as plural suffix there are some irregular plural words taken from Arabic. The learners need to learn them too. For example : Masjed= mosque 🕌
Plural= Majed-hā or Masājed (Arabic)
Also there are some other plural suffixes less used. Eg. -ān
Mard=Man, Mard-hā / Mard-ān
Both means Men
Just in official writings we might say Masājed, but in ordinary talks no one use it and we simply say Majed-hā. we even don't pronounce -h- in hā. we write Mard-hā but we pronounce Mardā. in fact it's really weired if you talk official persian with ppl. the persian which ppl talk is really different with what is writte. we write yek(1) but we pronounce ye and...
Hi everybody. First I am going to appreciate this channel for teaching my mother tongue to the world. I am Persian and proud of being a Farsi speaker. I am an English teacher and have been teaching English on CZcams. It seems interesting that others are teaching Persian while I am teaching English. When I read the comments I got happy that many people are keen on learning Persian. 🙏👌
For every Arabic loanword in the Persian language, there is an equivalent Persian word that is preserved and used by many people, and frequently used in Persian poetry. There are also many important Persian words in the Arabic language, such as the word "فهرس", an originally Persian word that is very important in Arabic literature. The influence of Arabic on the Persian language is well known, but the opposite is often overlooked. Many people argue over such topics, but I personally find the commonalities, and the cultural exchange and understanding to be a great way for us to come together, which is what I try to highlight on my channel. When you put it in perspective, we all learn from other civilizations,
no language has remained exactly the same for 3,000 years, none of us are original, but we all have certain aspects which are unique and interesting, and we all have influenced and been influenced by others in one way or another. This is something to celebrate and enjoy, not fight and argue over!
As Arabian you said the truth, and Persian have great culture and love it a lot of scholars were Persians because Persians are people of science and can see that clearly, even prophet Muhammad said to his Persian friend: if there is kitab(book) between earth and heavens Persian guy will catch it, wish for our unite again and pass of each other and pass some wrong faiths wish Persians admit it in sword and back like islamic abbasid golden age time! And want to give you surprise bro these days will pass inshallah because prophet Muhammad told us about it so we don't get mad but work, even in history when Mongols crushed the islamic world then entered Syria and jordan valley they were crushed ,and when crusaders tried to entered Syria in second crusade they crushed too! And when Byzantine try to take Syria again and took Aleppo Seljuk came and crushed them too! Even prophet Muhammad told us that Syria will be the place were the enemies fall in it and today this is there last days ,history replay himself but in New characters
Well said. Love your channel and everything you do. ❤
@@abdalrahmanalassaf7989 it is hard to consider Iran as part of "unified Muslim world", it was cut off from it by Shia Turks, and modeled to their understanding of religion, hence on of the fillars of Sunni civilisation was ripped off.
@@gryf92 yes true Islam is Sunni one bro, and when Persians were Sunni they gave that word a lot of noor and light and scholars ,but then Shia stopped that brains just like in Syria and Iraq and Yemen because there governments are Shia :(
@@gryf92 Its a little more complicated than that. Pockets of Northern Iran was introduced to shia islam before sunni islam. Provinces like Gilan and Mazandaran held out longer, and were exposed to Islam by shia who were persecuted, and the Abbasid revolt first started in Iran due to the treatment of the descendants of Mohammed by the Umayyads. It wasnt the only reason, Umayyads were generally intolerant of Ajamis, but it was a prime reason. This gave some shias hope, but sympathy for the family and being sunni are not contradictory, Iran was staunchly sunni (and non-muslim) at that time.
It wasn't until the Mongol invasion that most of the sunni strongholds were poorly defended. Mongols demilitarized most of Iran out of fear of retaliation for the mass killings. Iranians trained in secret in gyms known as "zoor khaneh" (house of power lol) during this time.
They were still prominent in sunni Islam, the Ottomans would send their scholars there to learn, just like shias do today, because they didn't have the religious institutions to train everyone, but just like the Islamic conquest northern Iran faired better, and this time they had a significantly larger shia population that could eventually conquer the rest of Iran as their numbers grew.
The pro shia people who conquered were Iranic(gilani, kurdish mazandarni, sistani, etc), Turkic(turkoman, qizbalshi, azeri), armenian, georgian, and circassian. This was the beginning of Safavid rule and the history of modern Iran.
Under Shah Ismail they were extremely intolerant of sunnis. It didn't help matters that Selim (Ottoman sultan) was equally intolerant of shias and ruled at the same time. This caused a pretty large migration shift of sunnis and shias, and a lot of deaths.
In the end, both sects are more similar than they are different.
As a Spanish and English speaker I find Persian easy to learn! It's a very straight forward language, I learned to read the arabic script and instead of arabic I'll go for Persian!
dale hombre!!! Dale!!
Gary Andrés Barba it is much easier than Arabic
kie(که) means Who ? in persian, que means Who ? in spanish. Muerte means dead in spanish, morde (مرده) means dead in persian

I was born in a bilingual family in Chust, a small town in Uzbekistan. I spoke in Tajik with my family, but spoke in Uzbek with the people who lived in areas surrounding Chust. I must say the Tajik I speak is heavily influenced by some Uzbek and Russian words. However, still the fundamental words of Tajik are preserved. I thoroughly enjoyed this amazing video.

Thank you for really interesting content and rich Persian class. I am from Tajikistan. I tought my Canadian friend Tajiki (Persian) within one week, now he can't stop learning more and more and singing Persian songs, poems and stories )). With love from Tajikistan
Are you in Canada?
As a Persian learner I really enjoy how poetic this language could be, with those compound verbs and nouns. I struggle with the colloquial and non-colloquial variety
try to learn by conversation it will be easier and faster you will learn ,dont think about grammer
بله . درست هست . پارسی یک زبان شاعرانه هست . این را میشود از اشعار حافظ و سعدی و مولانا و سنایی و عطار و فردوسی و ... فهمید . ما ایرانی ها تاریخ و فلسفه و اسطوره ی خودمان را به شکل شعر در می اوردیم و به این صورت تاریخ و. فرهنگمان را حفظ میکردیم
In Greece we say "he speaks pharsi" when we want to point out the high proficiency of a foreign language learner.
Yeah we arab the same we say pharsi
I‘m sure many view Greek the same way..
In Brazil when someone is speaking something that you don't know about we say "he's speaking Greek"
Or when you tell someone to do something but they don't you can say "am I speaking Greek?" For example when you tell the students to talk lower but they don't
Yep! That comes from the Ottoman times when for a very long time Persian was the administrative language and even after it was replaced by ottoman Turkish it was still very prestigious and a sign of the good education. Sort of like French in in the west. And so the phrase "speaking Farsi" meant what it means today in Greek

I am a fluent L2 speaker of Persian and have been learning it for over three years.
In my opinion, the difference between written and spoken Persian is very structural and can be familiarized in no time. Persian can be learned quickly, especially if you are a native speaker of European languages or Arabic.
The biggest challenge for Persian is the cultural elements embedded in the language itself. Idioms and slangs are very difficult to learn/memorize because of cultural factors. For example, in Persian, they say "Qorbonet beram" before saying goodbye to express proximity between people. In English, this expression literally means "I will sacrifice myself for you". Obviously, there is a story/reason for each of these idioms. Persian is full of these expressions and many of them make no sense to people from other parts of the world (like me). Learning them can be very very difficult since our brain tends to remember things better when we can relate to our existing knowledge.
Obviously, if you are an Arabic speaker, for example from Lebanon or Syria, you will not find this as difficult because there are less cultural gaps. Some expressions in Persian may still sound odd, but it's guessable to some Arabic speakers. It all depends on your mother tongue, cultural gaps and exposure.

I am native Persian speaker and I would say I still have problem with "Qorbonet beram" .
it's a strange idiom. I never use it and it makes me uncomfortable when other people say it to me.
What cultural closeness is there between Iran and Syria/Lebanon 😕
Think of it like this: We are a nation who is very comfortable with exaggerations intended for flattery and cajolery. Although they might seem mushy, dishonest or even downright nonsensical to other cultures , we consider them to be endearing as long as they are for the purpose of courtesy. We don’t take these sayings literally believe it or not. I hope that helps.
On the contrary, I see that I, the Gulf dialects, are closer to Farsi than Lebanon or Syria. In our Gulf dialect we have letters that are not only available in Arabic, and they are found in Persian
I know 8 months since you posted this comment just passed but was wondering it can help you if you are still learning Persian. the reason for saying it goes back to Love stories mythologies and of course these days exaggeration( بزرگنمایی) exaggeration is also a big part of literature especially in poets like Shahname Ferdowsi. anyway in the stories most of the time the lover wanted to literally sacrifice (mostly)his life for the beloved girl to rescue her or even die due to excessive love and sadness. this Idiom is more logical if u see it in the history and literary context. ( you can find this idiom in different languages belong to Iran like Lorish, Kurdish, Azeri and maybe Northern Iran languages.)
Oh! You explained everything super accurately!! Wow!
I'm a Persian native speaker, but actually after listening to your explanation, I got a feeling like How interesting! I'm going to learn this language !!!
And thank you very very much to make such an interesting and helpful content about Persian!
Hi your information about Persian language is Unbelievable, I as Persian didn't know something that you discovered. 👏👏👏
Learn Persian until you can understand our poetry. Then you realize the true fascinating nature of this language. Thanks Paul for this great video!
I enjoy Hafiz in English
I've studied in Iran and I remember when we used to study language I was able to memorize lots of poems than any other language materials.. I enjoyed it a lot..!!
can you explaine why? I am iranian and i know only 1 or 2 people who actually can understand poetry well lol
You put the bar very high...if one would do that, they would at least get a job in their country in a university as a lecturer right?
@@webeskimo
Well it is up to what you are interested in.. I didn't say that I can understand the poetry from the first time.. but once I understand the meaning I memorize it by heart very quickly and I enjoy it a lot.. and that doesn't mean necessarily that I can be a lecturer in Persian literature.. but it is up to your mindset and the way you perceive other languages.. by the way I even right songs in Farsi..!!!
webeskimo I’m Afghan-American and Persians my mother tongue and I’ve been recently learning how to read and write persian as well as the Iranian dialect. I LOVE persian poetry it’s SOO beautiful and unique. I love to listen to persian music for this reason as well. There is some great persian music out there and the lyrics help me a lot to learn and are very poetic.

As a speaker of Sorani Kurdish, I could understand this more than Kurmanji
I love the Persian language. It's a beautiful language that has a LOT of history.
Great video Paul.
I speak kurmanji and I still got like 80% of the words before the english translation was shown
Her beji Kurdistan, bra. ☀️ I’m a Persian (from Iran) and I’m also into the Kurdish language(s).

Thats cause sorani isnt even kurdish lol.
And we love our Kurdish brothers. We are all Iranic people. Kurdish, with all its varieties, are dear to us.
"There is no grammatical gender" makes this language perfect and easy to learn.
Update: Also comparing it to most languages that have 1-3 articles, Persian doesn't have any definite article.
Uhm Uhmm *finnish
And also hard for US to actually learn other languages...😐
Lol try learning Farsi then think twice 😁
I really enjoyed learning farsi. It has rules that it generally sticks with to. Learning it to a basic level was very fun.
@@saralovesthemoon Im a Turkish speaker and its actually easy peasy for us to learn Persian since our grammar is similar.
Hey there.
I am a local Persian speaker.
I really appreciate the fact that so many people are interested in our language and hope that you enjoy learning it because it is a very sweet and delicate language.
I also thank you Langfocus for explaining it so well. I enjoyed it a lot❤️❤️
Just a little correction here, the present stem isn't actually hard to create and we do not memorize it.
To find the present stem of a verb, you should write the imperative form of the verb and remove the "b" sound from its start.
For example, the verb «خوردن» (pronounced like: khordan)
First, you write the imperative form: «بخور» (pronounced like : bekhor or bokhor dependent on the speaker)
And then, you simply remove the "b" sound from the start: «خور» (pronounced like : khor)
And wallah, you have the present stem.
Another example is «شنیدن» (pronounced like: "shenidan" which means "hearing")
The imperative is «بشنو» (beshno)
Remove the "b" sound «شنو» (sheno)
And there is your present stem.
Another correction, the letters «غ» and «ق» are COMPLETELY pronounced differently. Even nowadays. You just need to see it in different regions of Iran to understand. Just the fact that people pronounce it similarly in our capital, doesn't mean it is pronounced similar in everywhere.
Also, to answer your question, I believe that the formation of the words are also a very important part of Persian to understand. I don't know how to explain it since I'm not a teacher😅 but basically the formation explains how words are created in Persian and vasts your understanding of the words you hear. "Moshtagh" , "Morakab" and "Moshtagh Morakab" are the three main types of word makings. I love to see it explained.
And at the end, I thank you again for such a great effort you did to explain Persian. And sorry in advance for the probable gramatic problems I had in my comment. I'm still not a very fluent English speaker.
Thanks for your video, im from iran and thes is my first watch the video about it. thanks ❣️😭😭
Studied farsi for a hot second in high school, I loved the way it sounded and looked, it's like ur living in a world of poetry, and Persians always light up any time you try and practice with them. The hardest part really was all those compound verbs and colloquialisms. The funny thing is I ended up studying Japanese in college for my major, and I ended up finding a LOT of things (like SOV word order, particles, and compound verbs) easy because I had already studied Farsi. This video really makes me wanna open up my textbook again.
Screw the text book! I'll practice with you if you want :D

Thank you very much for this video and your good education. I feel very good that a small country knows us.
Thank you very much for this video. I'm Tajik from Uzbekistan and for me it was very interesting. Even though I'm a native speaker, I've never thought about how grammar works, because I've never learned it.
Since official language of the country is Uzbek, there are very very few schools that are fully taught in Tajik(Persian/Farsi). But after finishing one of those Tajik schools you don't really need it in your future career so you still have to choose either Uzbek or Russian to continue your education, so almost noone learns the language properly. For these and other reasons our daily spoken language has changed very much. Uzbek(one of the Turkic languages) influenced our language a lot. And it's continuing to change with every new generation.
But nevertheless, we still understand Iranians, they understand us. Of course with some difficulties, but it's possible to communicate 👌🏼

I'm learning Persian and you summed it up well ! It is really quite a fluid language to learn as an English speaker (even more for me who speaks many other Indo-european languages).

What a great language! When I was in grad school, in the 70's, before the shah was overthrown, we had many Iranian students at U. of Illinois. One was a housemate of mine. Recently, I came across a YT vid of someone speaking Farsi, and realized a) I missed the sound of it because b) it's beautiful! I'd rate it right after Italian (my fav) for sheer beautiful sound. Haven't studied it, so didn't realize what cool, logical grammar it has. My housemate only taught me one thing and, from your video, I think I know now how to transliterate it: Salaam (the easy part) chetori which is apparently the familiar form (2nd per. sing.) If only it didn't have squiggly, backward-moving (to me) script...

I don't know why but Persian sounds to me so sophisticated and royal and I like it. If it weren't that I'm currently learning Japanese and Korean I'd go and give it a try. The fact that is S.O.V like Japanese and Korean and that it uses postpositions as well plus the fact that the vocabulary is Indo-European related makes it more intriguing. The ease of pronunciation and moreover the way Farsi adapted Arabic script reminds me of the relationship between Chinese and Japanese. I don't know if anyone can relate, I love this channel.
According to the Persians I know to them Afghans speaking Farsi sounds royal and elegant in contrast to their own modern and rougher Farsi.
@@alittlebitgone not really! Iranians prefer the Iranian dialect for sure. it's softer and way more complete.
The comparison between Arabic/Persian and Chinese/Japanese is actually pretty accurate.
Persian has a very rich literature. In the past it was used as a official, literature, .... language in India, Ottoman empire, Seljuk empire, .... By the way there is some words in english from persian (not cognate) like paradise, magic, bazzar, ...
@@alittlebitgone I don't know about that. In Iran you usually hear Afghan Farsi spoken by poor Afghan immigrant construction workers. So hearing it doesn't really bring royalty into most people's minds. I'm not racist I love all the Afghan people I'm just stating facts here.

For Polish speakers questions seem very familiar: ki-kto, che-co, key-kiedy, chera-czemu, kodam-który, and forming questions by rising intonation is a basic feature of spoken language.
I think Indo-iranian languages in general and Persian especially belong to satem family language. Slavic languages are also satem.
There’s more: Polish “jestem, jesteś, jest”, and Persian “hastam, hasti, hast”.
@@lilray5470
That's correct!
I always belive the language represents the mindset and mentality of peoples and reverse, speaking a language can form the mentality.
I think that's why as an Iranian I always had good relationship with people from Slavic countries like Ukraine, Poland and Russia!
reza kh It's so nice to hear that. There is definately some common mindset, no wonder Polish nobility claimed ancient Iranian (Sarmatian) origin/connection instead of a western european one or whatever.

As a native in this language, I have to sat that take easy when you want to speak Persian absolutely we don't use all roles... sometimes we just make words together and don't care about the places of them . If you put some words together we will connect and keep our communication for sure and have a good conversation
I'm a native speaker of Turkish and I've been learning Persian for a few months. It's been quite enjoyable. Turkish has lots of loan words from Persian and learning the origins of such words is fun.
Having lots of Persian words in my native language helps a lot while building up my vocabulary, but there are times it actually hurts. That is when we have a Persian loan word but its meaning has slightly changed over time. You guess its meaning, but oops, it has a similar meaning but it's not exactly the same.
It is also challenging to pronounce Arabic loanwords. I find it easier to guess the pronunciation of native Persian words.
It is quite fun to learn a language that shares many words with your mother language. I am from Afghanistan and a Persian speaker. Similarly, I learned the Urdu Language just by watching Bollywood movies, because the Urdu Language has many loan words from the Persian language.
Evet!!

Don't be stupid my fiend.
