As you know, practice makes perfect! These useful drills present even more new words for you to add to this week’s lesson. This will not only build your Persian vocabulary, but also help you learn to read and write Farsi more quickly and confidently.
Note: Before doing these homeworks, make sure you have learned the previous words fluently.
New words:
Bus = 
/oto bu:s/.
Bag = 
/ki:f/.
To cut = 
/boridæn/.
Tree = 
/derækht/.
To plant = 
/ka:shtæn/.
Knife = 
/cha:ghu:/.
Kitchen = 
/a:sh pæz kha:neh/.
Curtain = 
/pærdeh/.
To fix = to repair = 
/tæmi:r kærdæn/.
Box = 
/jæbeh/.
To eat = 
/khordæn/.
Bird = 
/pærændeh/.
Please translate the following sentences into Persian.
You already know how to use the rule. You may find the answers below.
Note: I understand using these strange numbers in these sentences seem a little funny! But, this is the only way we can practice them now. After all, learning these numbers in such sentences must be much easier than learning them through some mathematical procedures ( addition, multiplication, and so on)!!

There seems to be very little difference between the pronunciation for koshtaen and kaeshtaen for the verbs ‘to kill’ and ‘to plant.’ How do you tell which one is which?

First one is to kill, second one is to plant

I hope that this is helpful in understanding the difference: koshtan has the same “o” sound as in implode while kashtan has a similar “a” pronunciation as in hobbit.

why do we translate “two knives” into ” dou chaghou-e-” and not into “two chaghou” ?

I was also wondering that, as well as why in number 9, it is ‘abi am’ instead of just ‘abim’

here, the indirect object is made with “beh”. So: Ân dokhtar e ghad kutâh gol e ghermezi râ beh dustash dâd.
