I just want to say thank you very much Maryam for all your lessons. During my learning journey I have tried apps, workbooks, websites, other TH-cam channels I have even taken courses at Universities, so far you are the best teacher. Your lessons are so comprehensive and so well done, so organised. I can see all the effort you put in preparing these lessons for us. I finally feel I am progressing learning Farsi 😊❤
Thank you so much for your encouraging comment! I’m so happy to hear that my lessons have been helping you in your journey! More lessons are coming starting in March. Please let me know anytime you have any questions! 🌸🙏
Thanks for this i start learning a new language and after 3 4 days of surfing internet i found channel thanks for helping me with your glorious knowledge of peotic language. Gratitude ❤❤
Yes!! you are right! Good catch!! Sometimes it's hard for me to catch my own mistakes, thank you for bringing it up! I will make a note under the description so it won't confuse other learners!
Hi Maryam! Another really comprehensive lesson!! Thank you so much for the level of detail and care that you put into each and every lesson! They are really a gift! Just one question from the example at 17:03 "That is her own watch" -> Oun sa'ate khodESH ast (instead of khodAM, correct?)
You're welcome! Glad you like the lesson! Yes!! Good catch! If you can catch a mistake it means you are really learning the language , so I'm proud of you! I will put a note in the description that there is an error in the video. Thank you for mentioning it :)
Could I trouble you to clarify something about the informal version of the example 'his/her home' (4:45): you seem to pronounce it as 'khoon-ash', but based on what you say earlier in the video, I would've expected 'khoon-esh'. Is there an additional rule operating here? Thanks, as always.
That’s a good question and a common question I get asked. In the spoken language, when it comes to nouns that ends in silent ـه, there is an exception in the pronunciation. A few example below: His/her home خانه اش (formal) خونَش (spoken) In the spoken language a few things changes, first الف is not needed because that’s added for written formal form. Then خانه is خونه in the spoken form and because خونه ends in ـه so before adding the possessive suffix ش, we remove the letter ـه from خونه which will leave us with خونـ and add the diacritic َـ on the letter before the letter ـه meaning on نَـ so it makes it خونـَ. Now we add the possessive suffix ش. So it will give us خونَش Another example is: My bicycle دوچرخه ام formal form دوچرخَم spoken form
We don’t need الف for spoken form We remove ـه from دوچرخه and it will leave us with دوچرخـ, then we add the diacritic ـَ on the letter خَـ . Now we add the possessive suffix م It will give us دوچرخَم I hope that makes sense and answered your question. Please let me know if you have any other questions !
@@persianHow Thank you, as ever, for the customarily thorough reply. Just to make sure I understand your point here: are you saying that, in everyday speech, when a noun ends in a silent ـه, the linking vowel to the possessive ending will always be a short 'a' e.g. (docharkh-at, docharkh-ash), rather than the short 'e' you'd normally expect (e.g. medaad-*et*, miz-*esh*)? (See 2:20 for what I'm referring to.) (I'm sorry, I can't seem to get the correct Persian characters for the short vowels on my keyboard.)
Remarks: There is an error at 16:57 - it should be این ساعت خودش است

I think we need a correction at 16.09 minutes when we say: That is her watch would translate into "AAN SAET KHODESH HAST"
Yes!! you are right! Good catch!! Sometimes it's hard for me to catch my own mistakes, thank you for bringing it up! I will make a note under the description so it won't confuse other learners!

That’s a good question and a common question I get asked.
In the spoken language, when it comes to nouns that ends in silent ـه, there is an exception in the pronunciation.
A few example below:
His/her home
خانه اش (formal)
خونَش (spoken)
In the spoken language a few things changes, first الف is not needed because that’s added for written formal form.
Then خانه is خونه in the spoken form and because خونه ends in ـه so before adding the possessive suffix ش, we remove the letter ـه from خونه which will leave us with خونـ and add the diacritic َـ on the letter before the letter ـه meaning on نَـ so it makes it خونـَ. Now we add the possessive suffix ش. So it will give us خونَش
Another example is:
My bicycle
دوچرخه ام formal form
دوچرخَم spoken form
We don’t need الف for spoken form
We remove ـه from دوچرخه and it will leave us with دوچرخـ, then we add the diacritic ـَ on the letter خَـ . Now we add the possessive suffix م
It will give us دوچرخَم
I hope that makes sense and answered your question. Please let me know if you have any other questions !

Yes exactly! You understood correctly. It’s an exception in the spoken language. Let me know if you have any other questions!
