@@nitaseely6830 really you are from china ?! Can I know why you learning Persian ?

Check this sentence: “a father loves his daughter as well as his mother and brother.” Does it sound like an unusual statement? Probably not. But what if someone told you 33.33% of this speech is Farsi? Would you still consider it a not-so-unusual one? /ˈfɑːðər/, /ˈdɔːtər/, /ˈmʌðər/, and /ˈbrʌðər/ are just some examples of Persian-rooted terms that you’re using every day. But, most noteworthy, you’re using them with almost no change in the original pronunciations. In fact, a Farsi speaker would pronounce them as /pedær/, /dokhtær/, /mɑːdær/, and /bærɑːdær/. So, if you’d show up in Iran and used the terms with your American accent, everyone would effortlessly understand. Nevertheless, these four typical terms are not the only badges of the interrelation of Farsi and English. By contrast, there are so many lexical signs showing the bond between these languages. Below, therefore, you can find a list of most frequently used Farsi words in contemporary English. Lemon Iranians literally handed a lemon to the globe nearly 600 years ago-but in the right way! Not only did they introduce a brand-new fruit, but they also offered a free name for it. Arabs of the time where the first foreigners to get familiarized with the Sanskrit term Limo /lɪːmʊ̈/. However, they preferred to pronounce it as ‘Laimon’ /læɪmʊ̈n/ -- slightly similar to the combination of the English terms ‘lay’ and ‘moon.’ Nevertheless, the European businesspeople were introduced to the so-called “laimon” through Arabs and helped to spread it internationally. So, as a result, you can see the Farsi root for lemon, mixed with some Arabic flavor, and European curiosity has led to the current term for this fruit. Spinach Did Popeye the Sailor know that his power is coming from a Persian vegetable? Yes, you read it right. Persian vegetable was the name that ancient Chinese people used for this valuable plant. No one knows how this plant found its way into India and then China. But one thing is for sure; the roots are placed in Iran. The pronunciation of this word in Farsi is ‘esfenaj’ /'əsfənɑː dʒ /. So, if you exclude the added [p] sound in the English word, the words sound pretty much the same in both languages. Pistachio The Italians were using the term ‘pistacchio’ 1,500 years ago. So, it’s one of the oldest Farsi terms that has spread around Europe. But the pronunciation has changed throughout time. Indeed, Iranians pronounce it as ‘pesteh’ /pɛstɛ/. Although Americans start using this term widely during the 1880s, they are now the second biggest pistachio producer in the world-right after Iran. So, not only did they liked the Farsi term, but they also followed in Iranian cultivators’ footsteps. Sugar Persians decrypted the formula of producing honey without using the bee when Alexander the Great visited India. Right after this significant discovery, they started the mass production in the territory of Persia, where the term ‘shakar’ /ʃəkær/ appeared to be its name. But when Arabs overcame the Iranians in 651, the secret formula of ‘shakar’ got out of the box and spread all over the world. Arabs called it ‘Sokar’ /sɔk’kær/ and sold it to the European traders of the time. The English term sugar, however, is derived from Middle French ‘sucre,’ and Old French ‘çucre’ /ˈt͡sy.krə/. Caravan & Van Back when there were no police officers around, people had to provide security by themselves. That’s why Persians used to travel as groups called ‘Karwan’ /Kɑːɹwɑːn/. Nowadays, the usage of this word has changed enormously, and even Iranian people use it as a term to indicate a specific type of car-a recreational vehicle. Pyjamas or Pajamas You may invite your friends for a PJs party this weekend, not knowing the abbreviated word is rooted in Farsi. Yes, Pyjamas-the symbols of comfort-were used by Iranian people before Indians introduced them to the world. The root word in Farsi ‘pa-ja-meh’ /pɑːɪ- dʒ ɑːməh/ is a combination of two terms ‘pa’ /pɑːɪ/ meaning leg, and ‘ja-meh’ / dʒ ɑːməh/ an equivalent for clothes. So, Pyjamas were pieces of clothes for our legs-though the usage has changed a bit recently. Paradise Did you know that Persians created paradise? Well, technically, God built it to host his most valuable people in the afterlife. But the term “paradeaza” /pɑɹɑ'-dæ'əzɑː/ was first used in Median language-which is a sort of old Iranian dialect. “para” /pɑɹɑ'/ refers to vast gardens, and the term “deaza” /dæ'əzɑː/ signifies ‘walls.’ So, the original meaning of paradise was a huge garden covered with walls.’ However, since the conceptualization of heaven always included breathtaking sceneries related to huge gardens, the term became a proper equivalent for it. Bulbul “Not forever does the bulbul sing in balmy shades of bowers…” says Khushwant Singh. But Iranians believe this bird is “hezar avaz,” meaning it has thousands of songs to sing. /həzɑːɹ-ɑːvɑːz/ was a favorite bird in Farsi literature, and there are thousands of poems devoted to its sound and physical beauty. Even today, this bird is called ‘bulbul’ /bɔl-bɔl/ in Iran. Bazaar & Pasar Next time you’re talking about the bazaar sale, mind that you’re using a Persian term. ‘Bazar’ /bɑːzɑːɹ/ is a word that is rooted in the term ‘baha-chaar’ /bæhaː-chɑːɹ/ which means a place for getting quotes. In ancient Persia, there were lots of bazaars full of farmers and tradespeople selling goods. Kiosk French people took a Farsi word, changed it a bit, and brought it back. The root word for the kiosk is a Farsi term pronounced as ‘kushk’ /kʊ̈ʃk/, meaning a small pavilion open on some sides, and placed in a public area. The actual word was given out to the European by Turkish people. But the transformed term ‘kiosk’ came back to Farsi later. Nowadays, Persians use the word ‘bad-ge’ /bɑːd-dʒ/ to refer to kiosks. Mummy When the movie was out, lots of people changed their minds about the harmless-looking mummies. However, we’re not here to discuss the social aspects of the film. We’re here to learn that mummy is a term rooted in Farsi word ‘Mum’ /mʊ̈m/ meaning wax. Do you need me to remind you this is the name for the substance used to embalm the corpses? I don’t think so… Pashm & Pashmina Last but not least, a sign of the interrelation of Farsi and English is a luxury piece of cloth! Even though some thought the name for this material is Kashmir, the actual name is ‘Pashmineh’ [pashm = wool] /pæʃmɪ̈nɛ/ [made of wool]. Europeans found this textile in Kashmir and brought it to their lands as a precious piece of cloth. And even now, this material is still a luxury fabric in most regions-due to its troublesome production procedure.

Where you from?

Help me also..I'm pursuing persian hons in ug degree....and I'm struggling alot in persian...help bro

Thank you Lots of love from Iran 💙💚

Where are you from?

oh woaw, when i first heard the sentence I was like wow in formal greeting asking also that is different when I look at my own mothertongue (turkish) I've realized that we also ask in formal "hi, how is your haal and vakt" translating it into English wouldn't mean anything but I think as most of the words and phrases persian and turkish have so much similarities even in asking how it's going

@@beyza4720 There was a lot Persian language influence on Turkish. Even the administration language of Ottoman empire was conducted in Persian and the Sultans had Persian poets such as Humayun who would entertain them by reciting Persian. Most of that ended by Ataturk who was on a Turkification mission by creating a scholar group to purify the Turkish language by removin Persian and Arabic words and replacing them with Turkish. However, there were still a lot of words that could not be replaced. This is why you still see many Persian and Arabic words in Turkish.

@@jonam7589 yeah i knew that but thanks anyway for the information. recently I have heard that german people use french words to sound classy and I think it's the same for us, the more you use persian words in your speech the more you sound classy when you're speaking in turkish :) personally I love how persian and Arabic have a great influence on my language it makes it easier for me to learn those

Teach me Farsi please.

Keep learning it and i really will be happy to help u🌹🌹❤❤

That’s exactly what I wrote above. Then I scrolled down and saw that you had made the exact same comment earlier. Although, I must admit, you did it more politely. As I get older, I’m less and less patient with people who make such mistakes and teach it too! 😏😏😏😉😉😉

😊

I’ve got one where I live that can help! 😁😎👍 It sounds a little like Arabic, which I know a little of, but different at the same. 😉😎👍

خوشوقت یا خوشبخت هر دو درسته

@@fallwall9778 نخیر، هر دوش درست نیست! فقط خوشوقت درسته. خوشبخت در این جمله کاملاً بی معناست. اکثر مردم این دوتارو قاطی می‌کنند برای اینکه از لحاظ صدایی خیلی به هم شبیه هستند ولی معانیشون کاملاً متفاوته.

Александр الکساندر you’re doing just fine. no one is perfect in the first steps. Don’t listen to a few morons who can’t even speak their mother tongue correctly. Practice is what makes us perfect. Keep going dear Alexander, Желаю успехов тебе.

@@nazanin.f.r9856 I’m not a foreigner. I was born and raised in Tehran. I left Iran a couple of years after finishing high school. Persian is my native tongue. The difference between خوشبخت and خوشوقت is not a question of کتابی and مکالمه ای. They are two different words. خوشبخت means lucky, fortunate, happiness. خوشوقت means glad, pleased. It’s meaningless to say: از دیدنت خوشبختم, the same way that it is meaningless to say to a newlywed couple that: من برایتان آرزوی خوشوقتی می‌کنم.

@@nazanin.f.r9856 به فارسی بنویسم که جوابم روشن تر باشد. من در تهران بدنیا آمده و بزرگ شدم. فارسی برای من زبان مادریست. خوشوقت و خوشبخت دو کلمهٔ کاملاً جداگانه هستند و هر دو چه در مکالمه چه در هنگام نوشتن بکار میروند. «خوشبخت» به معنی بخت خوب داشتن، زندگی خوبی داشتن، آیندهٔ خوبی داشتن است. خوشبختی معنی شادی پاینده یا طولانی مدّت دارد. ولی «خوشوقت» یعنی وقت خوبی، هنگام خوبی داشتن. خوشوقتی شاد بودن موقت و کوتاه مدّت است. یک ازدواج خوب و عاشقانه و زنگی مرفح زوج را «خوشبخت» می‌کند. ولی آشنا شدن با یک شخص بیگانه برای اوّلین بار آدم را «خوشوقت» میکند. در واقع خوشوقت و خوشحال در معنی به هم بسیار شبیه هستند. ولی خوشوقتی از خوشحالی هم کوتاه مدّت تر است.
