챕터 가이드
Overview
How This Grammar Works
yes or no questions is incredibly easy: just raise your intonation at the end of a statement. For example, Shoma irāni hastid? (Are you Iranian?) uses the same words as Shoma irāni hastid. (You are Iranian.), but with a rising tone.no to a noun or adjective, you'll use the prefix na-. For instance, na-ḵeyr (no, not at all) or na-khub (not good).What is this?, you'd say In chi-st? (What is this?). If asking Where is he?, it's U koja-st? (Where is he?). For asking How?, the word Chetor (How) is your go-to. or She doesn't go," you'll master the Persian negative present tense using ne-mī-. This prefix combination attaches to the verb stem. For example, mī-ravam (I go) becomes ne-mī-ravam (I don't go), and mī-ḵoram (I eat) becomes ne-mī-ḵoram (I don't eat).Come!, you use the verb stem: Biyā! (Come!). For a polite request, you might add lotfan (please) and use the formal verb ending, or use specific polite imperative forms, like Lotfan biyaaid (Please come).Common Mistakes
- 1✗ Wrong: In chi hast? (What is this?) - if the sentence structure is rearranged to put 'chi' at the beginning like in English.
- 1✗ Wrong: Man na mīḵoram. (I don't eat.)
- 1✗ Wrong: To boro! (You go!) - if used in a formal situation or to someone older.
