I hope I motivated you to learn whatever you are learning!
On this channel I want to show you what it really takes to learn a language. Therefore I do not edit the videos in which I speak Farsi!

More resources for Persian:
😏1. Persian for beginners
www.amazon.com...
😏2. Colloquial Persian - I do not recommend it, compared to other books, even though it did help me. The audio contains to much English and also the book doesn't feel nice in my hands.
😏3. Persian in Use - great for everything, but a bit boring. It also does not have an answer key, so you have to get through it by yourself without doing the exercises, or do it with an online tutor. Audio varies in quality.

😏7. Drops - www.languagedrops.com - App to learn some words. This should be something extra!
8. Bplus Podcast - TH-cam Channel (advanced):
9. Learn Persian with Majid - TH-cam Channel (beginner - advanced)
💯How I practice it:💯
1. Vocabulary - reading & listening texts many, many times after translating them. The words will stuck eventually, just trust the process
2. Grammar - I flipped through some explanations and watch a video about a verb tense sometimes. That's it. Everything else I will pick up from context.
3. Reading - Reading, translating, reading, translating, reading again, translating the unknown words, reading more.
4. Listening - The same. I take walks with my headphones and listen to texts over and over again, until I understand what is being said.
5. Writing - I learned the script step by step, first by copying letters, then words, phrases, texts. Sometimes I try to write down what is being said and then I check my transcription. But I do not write well, since understanding and speaking is my focus.
6. Speaking - I started really speaking after 8 months, with Italki teachers. I finally found one who speaks only farsi with me! Also I made a Persian friend who wants to practice with me sometimes.
Good luck to you!❤

My partner is iranian born in the Netherlands, we have been together for 7 years but recently (6 months) i've been really putting in the effort to learn farsi. I'm dutch and i love farsi. Delam barād tang shodeh bod (I don't know the script) is one of the first sentences i successfully memorised besides basic conversation. I can see my father and mother in law are so happy when i learn new words, and i am finally able to follow their conversations in farsi. Keep up the good work! :)
Lekker bezig! Misschien kunnen we ooit samen Farsi praten. Ik vind de taal ook geweldig. Waarom heb je ervoor gekozen het script niet te leren?
what a lovely comment, it makes me think of my grandparents. they were so sweet on each other, & my oma learned farsi for him early on! i wish you both the same kind of happiness they had
I'm Iranian and trying to learn English. your tips and the way you plan is amazing. how organized you are!!
Don't be fooled! I write down all I do AFTERWARDS, I don't decide what to do beforehand, and all my plans change weekly.... Good luck to you and your projects!
I'm overjoyed by the fact that foreigners are interested in my language. کارتان عالی است
That is nice to hear!
I've just started to learn Persian. I love it!
Farsi is such an underrated and gorgeous language. Very poetic and pleasing to the ear. This inspires me to learn🤍
It is indeed!
@@MaxLearnsPersian Try Urdu also
@@IKNEWGAMING I'll stick to my 6 languages for the coming 2 years at least, because I want to be really good at them all. Then maybr Urdu!
@@MaxLearnsPersian urdo is farsi as well
From a geographical and historical point of view the region were Iran is placed and the counties around , either speak Farsi or Turkish or Arabic and other which are mostly in Iran (türk,lor,yazdi,gilak...)
Why? Because the whole region was a part of Iran once upon a time
After the Arabs came to Persian and made a whole mess😒🤦, The satraps or cities of Persia became independent and became a country
Let's not talk about how much destroyful was that...
Urdo is the farsi that people are speaking in Afghanistan and I believe there's one country else as well
I don't recall..
It's literally the same
they just pronounce the words differently
It's like you compare the İstanbuli-turkish and azerbaijani-turkish and Persian-turkish
Their base and foundation is the same,
Different in some parts
@@Aysan_sh Urdu is similar or even the same as Hindi not Farsi, and the region where Urdu is spoken was never persia it was India/Hindustan.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm learning farsi because I love the women.
I have been learning Farsi now for about a month. I am a little obsessed. Such a fun language. I am a language teacher and know how to make language acquisition have, but it is hard to find resources that are really designed to work well for practice. Super helpful to have a friend to practice with. Hearing/reading language you understand in an interesting context is (in a nutshell) how research shows we learn language. Keep it up!!
Agreed! Good luck to you
My friend from Persian class found out that the Bing translator has audio for Persian! You might wanna check that out :)
Thank you!!
I've already melted down by warmth of your burning passion and hard work!
Keep going forward!
Thank you and yes I will!
Hey Max - did you try Bing Translator? It has the audio for you :) Google translate does suck for persian..
Yes some commented on this video about Bing and after that I started using it and i also show that in this video: th-cam.com/video/aSxS5ujnzIo/w-d-xo.html
I just started learning Persian. Love your approach to learning, very well organized. Since I already know cyrillic Tajik helped me a lot. What I found really great about Persian is how similar it is to Croatian, tons of cognates, simple grammar and very logical. The thing that puts off most people is the unfamiliar arabic script. Persian is like a cousin that is dressed up as an Arab for halloween haha. Learning it opens you up to 120 milion people and an ancient great civilization. What gave me motivation to learn was a story about the hero Rostam from Shahnameh.
I'll check out that story! Don't be fooled by the veal of organisation. Thanks for the reminder of how cool and important the script is. Goodluck to you!
did you know that Croatian people were in Iran before? and they have Iranic origin?
wait, so how did you manage to find anything in tajik? I can read cyrillic so easy but my head hurts with with arabic script lol. I need to go down the tajik route or I'll end up back on russian which is almost my 2nd language at this rate haha
What happened to their great civilisation, why doesn't it exist today?
Persian isn't like a cousin dressed up as an _"Arab"_ for Halloween, lmao. Persian is the cousin from which you fellows appropriated your *Aryan* ideology. It's an *Indo-European* language written in a Persianized Aramaic-based script.
As a Persian who is a graphic designer and I'm interested in Font designing, i loved your Persian handwriting!! It was so pure and clear!
And also i know that it's a bit hard to get the right pronunciation, but i'll be glad if i could help you with that.
Hope you reach your goal!
Thanks for the compliment! How would you be able to improve my pronunciation? I am interested.
@@MaxLearnsPersian we can be in touch via WhatsApp or Email if it's okay, i saw your website link in your channel, so i'll send you a gmail for that.
Hi Shakyba, I am from China and teaching myself Farsi recently, because of the huge difference between my mother tongue and Farsi, So I am really not sure if my pronunciation is correct or not, It would be appreciated if you could recommend me a translation APP Iranian daily use and can pronounce Farsi word out. It would be greater if you can help me to correct my pronunciation. Thanks so much.
@@willchen4322 hi Will Chen, I'm happy that you are learning Persian! Actually i don't know any app about pronunciation yet, but i can help you with that as a native speaker!
It's actually quite interesting for me that you are learning Persian with Chinese mother tongue.
@@shakyba6412 Sorry for my late reply, I left a comment containing my mail address few days ago, but somehow It disappeared. And really thanks for your willingness to help me, and maybe we can "exchange" our language if your are intereste in.
خیلی باحال بود:)
It's such a relief that I'm not the only one hitting a wall, thank you for sharing how you moved forward!
it hurts BOOM
Hi I am from India🇮🇳 and I'm learning Farsi too. This is so beautiful language. Its poetic sound fascinates me and gives me the reason of learning it. There are similarities between Farsi and Urdu language in vocabulary. As we use lot's of urdu words during speaking hindi it becomes easy to learn farsi vocabulary. Im in love with the words also. Keep going man im also trying to.
Good luck! Tell me if you want tp study the same song as me and we can help each other
Merci dadash hendi ham zaboone qashangie va doost daram yek rooz be hend safar konam va ba farhangeshoon bishtar ashna besham
Urdu borrowed alot of vocabulary from Persian.
I have learnt from your planning and organisation
You’ve done well.
thanks!
I like how methodical you are about this. I just started looking into Farsi, it's still daunting, I bought basic books, and subscribing to channels here on TH-cam so that I can dwell into this language. I want to understand it because I am fascinated by Iran, its people, culture. Thank you for your videos.
Just get started with the alphabet! If you ever stop learning Persian, you at least know the alphabet. That's awesome
سخت کوشی شما بسیار برای من الهامبخش بود :)
Your hardworking really inspired me :)
Love from Iran
Thanks! مم نون
I am urdu speaker for us persian learning is very easy as most of our vocabulary is derived from Persian so I am also spending most of my day in learning the language still its hard to learn 😢
True!
It's really nice to see people from all around the world, finding farsi interesting
I myself, I'm Iranian
And farsi is really hard
Even for me
The only advice that I can give you is ,pay a lot of attention to the grammar
And don't mix up the sounds and similar words
And definitely try contacting someone who is native Persian so you won't do anything wrong
Don't trust the text books
Good job 💪🇮🇷
Gotcha!
Thanks for learning my language. Farsi is amazing language but it is in danger since countries who speak it are at war or isolated from the world. You help us save farsi from extinction and I appreciate your wonderful work 🙏🙏🙏
At your service!
Whattt!!!! There is no war and the Persian language is not in extinction!
@@thatman4116 maybe he is still in the eighties of previous century
@@maa7528 Iran=Isolated
Afghanistan=at war
Tajikistan=👍
It’s very interesting to see your learning system! With TH-cam and Google Translate, learning Persian is now easier than ever. I’m an American originally from Louisiana and started learning Persian at the age of 15 way back in 1979, when I started meeting all these Iranians at school who were coming over to get away from the turmoil of the revolution and to study in the US. I found the people, the culture, and the language so beautiful and exotic. They were so welcoming to me, and would invite me to their homes and get togethers, where I was able to soak in the music, culture, and food. It was like a whole new world to me. I was determined to learn the language.
My method back then was simple: I got a notebook and started writing down conversational phrases, and then would ask my Persian friends to write them in Farsi using the alphabet along with the phonetic sound. That helped me learn the letters and variations in pronunciation. Before long, we were sending Persian notes back and forth to each other in class. Once, the teacher saw and asked to read the note. I’ll never forget the look on his face when he opened it!
They would invite me to their get togethers and I was able to hear the music and discover the food and culture. But back then, there was no internet, no Amazon, and Persian grammar materials were almost impossible to find, so over time, after I moved away to a smaller town, my Persian got rusty. Today, I’m fortunate to live in Los Angeles, which has the largest Iranian community outside Iran, and I’ve recently started studying again. With all the resources available now, it’s so much easier! If you haven’t already found it, check out the Persian keyboard and translator on the Gate2home website. I’m encouraged to see others like you who share this interest. Movvafagh Boshi!
What a beautiful story!!
Max, you're brilliant. دلم برات تنگ شد 🤗
Persian language is so beautiful
Yes
Keep going 🤗🤝After becoming fluent in Persian ,travel to Iran so u can challenge urself abt it.U r always welcome 🌸
I will! I have already been there, but next time I can talk to people :)
Hey max, ik ben ook op weg om perzisch te leren.. Het lijkt nogal een intimiderend process
kunt u mij nog enige tips geven qua wat ik eerst zou leren? Mijn eindgoal is uiteraard het kunnen spreken, verstaan, en lezen
Lekker bezig! Natuurlijk:
1) Leer het alfabet en schrijf je eigen naam en de namen van je vrienden en familie
2) Leer tellen
3) Leer jezelf voorstellen
4) neem een klein aantal korte hele simpele teksten en lees, luister en herhaal ze tot je alle woorden begrijpt. Hiervoor kan je een tekstboek gebruiken, of de LingQ mini stories.
LET OP: gebruik niet allemaal apps door elkaar. Kies één boek of app en gebruik deze tot je alle teksten op beginnersniveau hebt geanalyseerd. Dit gaat sowieso 100 uur duren. Tel je uren, dan weet je hoe het gaat!
@@MaxLearnsPersian Bedankt voor de tips, waar/hoe kan ik best het alfabet beginnen leren?
Love from iran
i'm Iranian and the hard work you are doing is great, i'm also learning English 😅 من ایرانی هستم و خوشحالم که سختکوشی میکنی تا به هدف برسی ، منم دارم اینگلیسی یاد میگیرم
Hard work good work
من يه ايرانى هستم. فارسى ياد بگيريد و از صحبت كردن با يكديگر لذت ببريد. فارسى ضرب المثل هاى بسيار زيبايى دارد. و شعر و موسيقى عالى
موافقم! بسیار متشکرم

You wrote very beautifully as a Persian language student! Super cute ! خیلی قشنگه😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you :)
Persian language does not belong only to Iran, this language is one of the oldest languages in Asia and not all Persians live in Iran, Iran, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Samarkand and Bukhara are two cities of Uzbekistan, Tashkarghan is a Chinese city, Quetta is one of the cities. Pakistan, in these lands that I mentioned, Persians are the majority, but unfortunately, Iran, a powerful Persian-speaking country, has not been able to create an alliance between Persian speakers.
too bad :( I love the whole Persian culture, not just Iran! But Iran is the only country I visited
@@MaxLearnsPersianIran is the center of Persian culture. Its former historical territories in the Caucasus and all of Central Asia have been taken away and created a fake history (terms like Dari/Tajiki instead of Persian, neglecting Central Asia Persianate history and legacy etc).
I’m trying to learn too(: I have a question though. Where did you find the Persian most common verbs posters ? or the website ? @1:20
Hi Latrea! Nice, how is it going? I found it here: nl.pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=persian%20verbs&rs=typed&term_meta[]=persian%7Ctyped&term_meta[]=verbs%7Ctyped
I've started learning Farsi recently and feel motivated by watching your story. I feel good by knowing that I'm almost following the same method as yours. I hope it will work for me. I can't wait for the day when I'll be speaking Farsi as fluent as a native speaker 🙊
I'm glad the channel helps you! The methode works for anyone who enjoys it, I suppose. Let me know if you find out about new resources or methods, like that we can help each other? When exactly did you start? Good luck to you.
Nothing surprising, Just add grammar. That is the way to learn languages. I believe you have great memory. That is the way to learn languages. My plan is similar, however I dont do it structure-that is my problem. I can see you are learning to read too. That is an extra challenge. Congratulations!
What do you mean with 'that is the way to learn languages'?
You can do it yourself. It depends on your talents and plan to learn@@MaxLearnsPersian
Aw Max, you are perfect❤
I'm proud of you and the way you set a plan to learn Parsi.
I write Parsi cause Farsi is the Arabic version of this word and Persians don't like to be known as Arabs.
If you need any help I'll be your guide here.
I think reading some parts of history also can be effective for you, like learning about Nadershah, Amirkabir, Reza khan Pahlavi, and Mohammadreza Shah Pahlavi.
Or our poets like Rumi, Hafez, and Saadi and ...
Of course, I mean reading about their biography because reading their poems is soo hard even for us as native Iranians.
Btw, good luck bro❀
با تشکر از شما برای کلمات مهربان خود را. موفق باشید به شما در زندگی!
🤣 Persians are still upset that Arabs conquered them! Here's a thought, maybe if you guys stopped interfering in Arab affairs, we wouldn't need to unleash the full force of our jihadis on you!
Everywhere that Arabs are present, you guys always make trouble for us. Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Yemen. The Extraordinary riches of the country (oil and gas) is spent in fighting Arabs. No wonder why Iran is such a shit hole!
Persians aren't related to Arabs.
I'm hoping that being in Iran for a month and totally immersing in the culture will improve my Farsi. Like a lot of commenters here have already said, it's the poetry and beauty of Farsi which inspires me, but also I am interested in Tajik and Dari too so Farsi will help immensely.
Hi I'm Iranian and I'm very happy that I see Persian has many learners
How did it go? Can you understand حافظ now? :)
I’m an English guy that did the Pimsleur Farsi 1 course 14 years ago and still have 100% retention. I just started Pimsleur Farsi 2 course and it’s just like old times. For me, as a native English speaker, learning Farsi is more like remembering a language, rather than learning it. I love seeing the look on Iranian peoples faces when they realise I can speak Farsi. It’s like magic 😊
So how did you manage to remember all of it?
@@MaxLearnsPersian I did a memory course many years ago called Mega Memory by Kevin Trudeau. You use vivid imagination with lots of action to memorise things and once you have been through them 3 or 4 times, then they stay for life 🙂
Aw as an Iranian myself I realllllllly become happy when I hear foreigners speak Persian😂
well done Max I'm from Iran and now I'm learning English that was such inspiring video for me thank you so much
Thanks! Maybe we can have a chat in the future and exchange Farsi and English?
@@MaxLearnsPersian Of course, yes, I am very eager to do this 😃🙏🙌
@@MaxLearnsPersian can i have a little bit of chat with you ?

I checked out the video and subscribed. Good luck!

درود ، خوشحالم که به فارسی علاقه داری و یاد میگیری
This is just the motivation I need. I’ve been learning off and on for 8-9 years. I can understand quite a bit but I haven’t been able to step up to the next level and form coherent sentences
You can do it with consistent reading and listening efforts!
I am very happy to see a Persian language learner. This is very happy for me. Love from Iran❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
اونجا میبینمت
@@MaxLearnsPersian Do you want to travel to Iran?
2:46 the story starts with: (یکی بود ، یکی نبود)
which means : there was someone , there wasnt someone
so there are alot sentnces like this that might be tricky
called : ضرب المثل
they have a story behind them for their true meaning
and how great is the Persian Language!
هر زبانی در دنیا وجود دارد حتما دارای نقاط قوت منحصر به فرد خود بوده است که همچنان زنده مانده است. مثلا احساس میکنم فارسی روان است. چینی از صداها بهترین کمک را گرفته است. انگلیسی ساده و سریع است. عربی دارای معانی عمیق و متعدد است و .... شاید بشر نیازمند به یک زبان جامع با همه این نقاط قوت به صورت یکجا باشد.
امیدوارم فارسی به آن زبان جهانی تبدیل شود. بعد همه با شکر حرف می زنیم!
@@MaxLearnsPersian چه تعبیر قشنگی
Such a happy guy you're
Im 1 month into learning Persian, I’m doing a 3 month challenge.
I got stuck for a long time on how to study vocabulary since I don’t know anyone who speaks Persian and looking up/recording the individual translations on Microsoft translator takes forever! 😆 I’m making Anki flashcards to study
Great video! Very motivating, I like that you explained exactly what you did in depth (unlike the other Language TH-camrs) because it helps me find things I can improve on or fix to help my own language journey.
~Best of luck to everyone out there learning languages!~
im a native speaker
Nice comment! Why are ypu doibg only three months? Good luck and let me know how it's going if you like!!

/understand in 3 months 😊 of course, I plan on continuing my knowledge/understanding of Persian even after the 3 months is up! 🙌🏼 it’s going well I think, but there has been some bumps along the way haha
Hi first im going to say that farsi is very hard language to read understand and speak as Iranian. but its very good way to practice is read storys or … and write about the things you do or you like just this two u don’t really need the speaking part cause the native people in Iran recognize it really fast and i hope you get better at any language you are practicing .with much love ❤️ and support 😂
ممنون!
Hey max , most European can’t pronounce خ properly but you’re great 👍.
Something to practice! When you say I live in Netherworld you say من دار هلند زندگی میکنم but should say در
As you pronounce a in man
Thanks! I have the خ in my native language :). And in my native language the 'a' and 'aa' are very different so I keep mixing them up in Persian... thank you!
Hey Max! منم فارسی یاد می گیرم 😊It's great to find another Persian learner here on TH-cam! I've used many of the same resources as you, but I haven't used either of the books you've got and would love to see some reviews if you have time. I'll be subscribing to follow on your journey 😁

Glosbe Dictionary has audio files for Persian Farsi, LingQ does too but the sound is a bit cringe
Yes, those are not very helpful... But BIng translator is and it has a perfect audio function and Finglish transcription. So the problem is solved. I am making a video about the two biggest problems right now...

A real honour!
Online Persian text-to-speech exists already.
Maybe it didn't in March 2022, but it is included in the LingQ app now (October 2023).
I've heard about it but I did not check it out yet! I will renew my subscription, check it out and I'll report about it in a video. Thanks a million for this message!
@MaxLearnsPersian You're welcome!
I have Persian in the list of "I want to try not so far in the future" so I checked immediately.
There's not a free online text to speech app, so maybe LingQ (or other that I don't know of) is the cheapest way to have it.
Unfortunately, there isn't a transliteration app including the vowels (to my knowledge) I checked that.
Bing translator can translate from other languages into Persian with audio and latin script transliteration. Did you check if the LingQ one works well?@@estrafalario5612
@@MaxLearnsPersian I can't. I'd like to start with Persian in maybe 2 years, but there's no way I can assess whether it pronounces/transliterates it well or not because can't even say "Hello, my name is..." in Persian 😅
why wait?@@estrafalario5612
I’m Iranian 🇮🇷♥️☪️
The music is so so noisy.
Definitely, if you put any music within learning videos, it will make it noisy, and it will make distractions...
I'll remember that!

آفرین (Afarin)👍👍
Thank you!
Microsoft translator has Farsi pronunciation for words.
Do you mean Bing? Or the app? Because bing does not have Farsi speach anymore
A Persian expert in my country said in her podcast that in order to make it easier to learn Persian, you better have a basic knowledge in Sasnkrit and Arabic. She also said that the most similar European language to Persian is Russian, and the word Khoda (god in Persian) and God (god in Dutch) sound accidently similar, but they don't have any connection.
I believe also the word bad in English, and 'bad' in Persian, sound the same, but that is a coincidence. Now I understand that having a knowledge of Arabic and Sanskrit would help my Persian studies tremendously, but spending time learning one or both of those would mean that i am not studying Persian that same period of time. So I won't do it now. I am focused on learning Persian so I'll spend time studying the language directly. Some people go as far as to say that you should learn Persian to learn Arabic, but I disagree. For a big part learning a language is also learning a culture, so time spent with Persian culture is not learning Arabic culture, I just don't agree. Now this does not mean that it does not interest me! For now it is just Farsi, farsi, farsi!
@@MaxLearnsPersian
Max you are so right. Learning a language just in order to understand another one is somehow disparagement. Thank you for your practical tips! If you'll learn Hebrew in the future you can ask me here questions 🙂.
I really don't think learning Arabic and Sanskrit would help you learn Persian in any significant way. I'm saying that as a Persian who's familiar with both of these languages.
@@MaxLearnsPersianPersian is an Indo-European language. Persian culture derives from Indo-European costums of the ancient Iranians. Arabic is a Semitic language and spoken by Semitic peoples. Please be respectful and do not confuse the two.
You are right and I know that, I do not confuse them at all. They are very different. I am only saying that in Persian there are Arabic expressions and they use the Arabic alphabet. Especially because of the latter, Arabic speakers have a tremendous advantage when learning Persian, even though their cultures and languages are very very very different. In fact, I am in llove with the Persian culture and language and not so much with Arabic culture. In fact, the ancient traditions of Persia (before the Arabs came) are most interesting to me!@@texmexexpress

I've been trying to learn german for several months but I am lazy and the progress of learning is slow. I hope be regular like you .
Why did you decide to learn persian?
Good luck 👍
Thank you!! I understood parts of your Persian comment, but responding is another thing :p. I decided to learn Persian because I fell in love with Iran when I was there. I made a video about that, too!
Good luck with your German studies. I speak German on a B2 level (and I read on the highest level) and what got me to that point was lots of reading and listening. As you pointef out, consistency is key.
Good luck again and I am always interested to hear how it's going!
@@MaxLearnsPersian It is great that you understood my Persian text, considering that I wrote the Persian text in a colloquial way.
I'm pretty glad that you loved Iran.
I realized that you are multilingual , your Persian learning process is amazing. I think you can master the language in the shortest possible time.
Thank you for your helpful explanation.
Good luck.
سلام مکس
خیلی خوش حال شدم که فارسی رو دوست داری🌸

پارسی نه فارسی
How do you find learning to write in Persian? I am currently studying Farsi too but only speaking!
Hi Ponii. I find reading and writong necessary to learn a language well. I'd suggest learning the script!
The alphabet is as important as the speaking. in order to make a relation in between
Where's the part where you speak plz?

دست خطِت از من خیلی بهتره مکس! :))
موفق باشی!
Good luck and I can teach u persian
I have two teachers for now, but maybe in the future! Thank you
Hey love the fact your learning farsi/persian!!!!!!!!!
Learn the informal version first because the best thing about farsi this speaking to others. Learning it formally is for academia.
Keep up the good work ❤❤❤❤
Thank you! I will learn both at the same time, since I learn by reading and listening and speaking!
@MaxLearnsPersianAndMore I find learning it informally is best. Formally is good if you enjoy reading books and newspapers news reports
@@bhfegwbr8882 I enjoy reading a lot! But I agree that informally is best, because that is how people speak, and I need people to learn and for them I do it in the first place
@@MaxLearnsPersian Not to play the devil's advocate here but Persian is the language of love and poetry and if you want to understand the masterpieces of Hafez and Rumi you definitely need to learn FORMAL Persian. Personally I believe that Persian poetry is so valuable that it's worth learning the language even if it was a dead language with no L1 speakers. Translations just don't do it justice.
I agree with you, but the thing is: I will need to learn both. I cannot learn only formal and then never have a conversation with people. Since for reading Rumi and Hafez the highest level of PErsian is required, it will take me years and years anyway, so I might as well spend time on being able to speak with peope, which is probably the most enjoyable thing I can do along way! What do you think?@@yarsaz4347
همه زبان های دنیا زیبا هستند و فارسی زبان شعر و زبان عشق است.
بسیار خوشحالم که یک همزبان جدید پیدا کردم دوست عزیز 🙏🌹
به زودی حافظ را می فهمم!
@@MaxLearnsPersian اطمینان دارم که موفق میشی 👏👏👍
@@MaxLearnsPersian امیدوارم تمام این مطلب رو متوجه بشی ( اگه بشی مطمئنم استاد شدی )
فارسی زبان عشق است و ایثار. دیرین زبانی که اصالتش فراموش شده است! بزرگمردانی همچون فردوسی ، سعدی ، حافظ و مولانا ، ستون های این فرهنگند.
I'm really saying it, it's even not easy for a native. It is, somehow , modern literature, u know.
I fell in love with you. Hope u enjoy everything :)
@@Mr.3mвы забыли самого главного Абуабдулла Рудаки основоположник персидского поэзии
@@Мастер-класс-л5ц sorry bro
Could u type in English? I'd appreciate it ;)
I am part Iranian and I always knew Farsi but I forgot it and now I am relearning it
Nice! How is it going?
@@MaxLearnsPersian خوب با کمک از پدر و مادر من و این دو ماه الان است
I LOVE IRAN ITS PEOPLE ITS FOOD NOW I WANT TO LEARN PERSIAN ABUTURAB SHAH FROM AMERICA
Great Video! Love From Bosnia 🇧🇦 you really have some Great Work Ethic bro I'm planning to learn Farsi Next I can Speak and Understand Arabic Already so its Easier for me
Thanks my man! I am trying to keep it going. Tell me about your resources and all that so we can help each other!
I’m Persian
I’m glad that you’re learning Persian so if you want help let me know :)
Knowing Arabic ain't gonna help ,the fuck. Persian is an indoeuropean language. Arabic isn't.
@@ernf8341 It actually does help a whole lot.
The usual advice if you're serious about let's say, Islamic studies, is to learn Arabic first and THEN Persian since it will be much easier.
@@nguteg8754No it aint
من برای تقویت انگلیسی ویدیو های شما رو میبینم😂

Zaneman Irani ast. Be kam Farsi sobhat mikonam. I’m very impressed and inspired by your learning strategies and your drive to become a polyglot! Courage! C’est pas loin! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
C'est pas loin! Merci. Do you speak Farsi with your wife?
@@MaxLearnsPersian yes, she is very happy that I am learning 😊
Cool! You're always welcome to chat about it with a coffee if you want, just check my website. Or here is also okay! Happy to help or just share. @@RobBerks
@@MaxLearnsPersian thanks man 👍🏻
سلام دوست من(:
امیدوارم موفق باشی
خوشحالم که فارسی را برای یادگیری انتخاب کردید❤😊
چقدر عالی
ولی دوست دارم بدونم برای شما که انگلیسی هستی فارسی سخته؟
چون بعضی از تلفظ ها و لغت هایی که فارسی داره انگلیسی نداره
I'm from Afghanistan and Afghanistan is Farsi
Okay! What is Dari then?
@@MaxLearnsPersian One language many political names
@@MaxLearnsPersian dari is persian but a different dialect kinda. It's more pure persian. No loan words and their accent is a little different
you have forgotten the Tajik language Farsi Tajiks also belong to the Persians
@@ernf8341Dari means court Persian.
موفق باشی😍
بسیار متشکرم!

It is nice to learn a few words, but it is not reay beneficial spending lots of time on there
سلام من الی هستم ار ایزان و بسیارخوشحال شدم که شما فارسی یاد میگیرید.
اگر کمک خواستید من هم حاضر هستم به شما کمک کنم
موفق باشید.🌺 عالی
خیلی ممنون!
iran sorry for saying it wrong
No worries
Use FORVO for pronunciation, it's a must!
I believe FORVO does not have Persian...
@@MaxLearnsPersian it does! IT DOES!!! It has so many words pronounced.
good job my friend I literally from iran کار خوب کردی I learned English by youtube
Well done!
I’m ready to spend some time from by buddy schedule to interact with you in English
