Useful Drills 13
Practice makes perfect!
Look at these new words:
Table = 
/mi:z/. Listen!
Glass = 
/liva:n/. Listen!
Book = 
/keta:b/. Listen!
Note 1: Please try the following verbs with all subjective pronouns first. Then, go to note 2 for further works!
To clean = 
/tæmi:z kærdæn/. Listen! First change it into 
/tæmi:z kærd/. Then, pronounce it with subjective pronouns:
1- I cleaned = 
/mæn tæmi:z kærdæm/. Listen!
2- You cleaned = 
/to tæmi:z kærdi/. Listen!
Now continue!
To wash = 
/shostæn/. Listen! Change it into 
/shost/.
1- I washed = 
/mæn shostæm/. Listen!
2- You washed = 
/to shosti/. Listen!
Now continue!
To open = 
/ba:z kærdæn/. Listen! Change it into 
/ba:z kærd/.
1- I opened = 
/mæn ba:z kærdæm/. Listen!
2- You opened = 
/to ba:z kærdi/. Listen!
Now continue!
Note 2: Now combine each sentence with the new words above. Example:
I cleaned the table = 
/mæn mi:z ra: tæmi:z kærdæm/. Listen!
All right. Now it's your turn to continue.
Note: You may go to Persian samples pages to see if you can find any verbs in simple past tense. Do not pronounce the verbs that we have not studied yet. Just try to find the familiar ones
