خلفية ثقافية

The 2:00 PM radio news on 'Radio Iran' is legendary. For decades, it was the most-listened-to broadcast in the country. Many Iranians abroad listen to 'Radio Farda' or 'Iran International' to stay connected with home. In Afghanistan, the phrase is identical, but the accent and some vocabulary in the news itself will differ. Tajik speakers use 'گوش کردن' (Gush kardan) more frequently than 'Gush dādan' due to Russian influence on verb structures.

💡

Use the plural

Always use 'Akhbār' (plural) for news broadcasts. 'Khabar' (singular) is for a specific piece of info.

⚠️

Don't forget 'Be'

Without 'be', the sentence feels incomplete to a native speaker.
