  • My Persian Class Skit

    Enjoy!

    The skit's theme had to be shopping-related.

    Background: Me and my partner are an 80-year-old couple, trying to shop online. (Azeezam = a word of endearment that means "my darling"!)

    Me, yelling at my partner: Azeezam! Azeezam! Come see this!
    Him: Coming! [a moment later] Oh God, you’re on the computer again. You know we don’t know how to use this machine, azeezam.
    Me: I am looking for a dress for our granddaughter’s wedding. What color do you think this is? [pointing and staring closely at the screen]
    Him, getting closer to the screen: I think it’s blue … no, it’s green, actually.
    Me: Na. It is white.
    Him: No, no, azeezam. It is gray.
    Me: It’s orange. Ah, yes, it’s orange!
    Him: It doesn’t matter what color it is; it’s ugly.
    Me: It’s not ugly! And I’m buying it.
    [Reaching for the phone.]
    Me: What number is that? Is that a 5?
    Him: No, that’s a 4, azeezam. And that’s 7.
    Me: And that one is 3.
    [We eventually dial the correct number and reach the shop.]
    Me: I want that orange dress. How much is it? [To my partner] It’s $5,000.
    Him: We don’t have that kind of money! $2000. We’ll buy it for $2,000.
    Me: We don’t have that kind of money. We’ll buy it for $2,000. [after a while] Uh-huh... Yes ... Okay. Yes, 5,000 is good.
    Him: No, azeezam. 5000 is not good. 2000.
    Me: 5000 is not good. 2000. [after a while] yes, okay. Uh-huh. Yes. 5000 is good.
    Him: Give me the phone, azeezam. [Into the phone] We don’t have $5000. We want it for 2000. [after a moment] uh-huh. Yes, okay. Okay. Yes, $5000 is good ... Bye.

        why m i confused?

        I am no bird, and no nest ensnares me.

        non commercial would cost less if he was in charge himself which he plans on doing. right now it's n herat but soon it will be in qanadahar.
