New words:
To change = 
/ævæz kærdæn/.
Job = 
/shoghl/.
Parents = 
/va:ledein/.
Also 
/pedær-o- ma:dær/ (mostly in daily conversation).
Medicine = 
/da:ru:/.
Bag = 
/ki:f/.
Wallet/Purse = 
/ki:f-e- pu:l/.
Anyone = 
/kesi/.
No one = 
/hich kæs/.
To lose =

Watch = 
/sa:æt/.

I was wondering, if we could use tabdeel for change instead of avaz.tabdeel is very common in afghanistan and pakistan.

Hello,
In sentence 5 (and some of the lessons before), why دارویش and not دارواش ?
I know it’s a bit late I ask, but better to ask than to wonder, right…
Thanks for the feedback.

darooyash is true because the syllable “ash” tells that who it belongs to
Madarash=His/her mother
medadash=His/her pencil
Or we can say: Darooye oo(oo means He/she),madare oo,medade oo

Thanks you Mohammad,
Small follow up question, do you know why sometimes “-ish” is used instead of “-ash” as in the example (look at my post last two characters of Persian words).

Dear Hassan (or fellow learners), why is no.8 “Hich kes kifat ra bar nadashteh ast” instead of “bardashteh ast”? It would be “Noone has not taken your bag” then (double negative). Is the rule so in Farsi? Thank you.

Thank you!

That’s because it’s A new car and not specific. The “alif yaa” part is to indicate that it’s not specific. You could say yek mashine tazeh.
