Thanks laila khorey

After reading the thread intently and comparing it with urdu grammer, I am trying to construct two sentences, plz correct me if i m wrong.

I will learn dari = Man dari yade greftan mekonam

You are intellegent girl= shomara hoshiyar doshiza astain

*For new vocabulary i checked english-dari dictionary

corrections:

I will learn dari = man dari yaad megirom
You are intelligent girl = shoma hoshyaar dukhtar astain (dukhtar = girl)

I wanna learn Basic Dari tooooooooo! I'm learning Farsi in school right now. Great stuff! If I learn Farsi, would I be able to talk to Dari speakers?

It's a different dialect, but yes, people will understand you.

Esm'e shoma chiyee vs. Esm'e shuma cheest? isn't that different. It's good that you're learning it in a educational setting (e.g. class), that way it will be easier for you to learn Dari.. because the actual structure and foundation of the language is the same, you're just using different words for some things, different pronunciation for some letters and a different stresses on the words/ in the sentences.

PLZ translate following
- he goes to school
-she goes to school
-you go to school
-we go to school
-they go to school
-i go to school

[Roshina]

PLZ translate following
- he goes to school
-she goes to school
-you go to school
-we go to school
-they go to school
-i go to school

With the little Farsi I know, lemme try to translate this. We're currently learning verbs like "to go," "to study," "to run," etc.

Raftan = to go. Madrasa = school. Beh = to (preposition).

I go to school = Man ba madrasa mi rawam.
You (informal) go to school = To ba madrasa mi rawee
You (formal) go to school = Shoma ba madrasa mi raweed
He/she goes to school = Oo ba madrasa mi rawad
We ... = Maa ... mi raweem
They ... = Anha ... mi rawand

The infinitive for "to go" is "raftan." But verbs that end in an (other examples include daanishtan (to have) and khwandan (to read)), you remove that ending and replace it with the normal ending for am, is, are, etc. Normally, it'd be "raftanam" (I go), but since this verb ends in "an," you've to remove the "tan" part and add the regular ending for each person to what you have now.

The ending for regular verbs for each person are:

For first person singular (I), the verb must end in: am
For second person singular and informal (you), it must end in: ee
For she/he: ad
For we: eem
For you (formal or plural): eed
For they: and

So, to say that "I am learning Farsi," you'd say: Man daari mi khwanam Farsi.

To say, "I am going to class," you'd say, To ba class mi rawee.

The "mi" in front of these verbs just means that they're in the present tense.

daram is used by Farsi speakers, in spoken language, not by Dari speakers. You don't use daram in the written language, even in Farsi.

Farsi is a modern version of Dari. Farsi roots from Dari. The language of Hafiz, Sa'di, Maulana, Rudaki, even the Shahnamah, is Dari, not Farsi.

[Shayesta]

Here are many Dari speaking hidden Tajiks.....come on frnds help this guy in learning ur historic, loving, beautiful, cultural language!

Only if you come out of your hidden shell as well and teach us Punjabi first.

I wanna learn Basic Dari tooooooooo! I'm learning Farsi in school right now. Great stuff! If I learn Farsi, would I be able to talk to Dari speakers?

Yup, though Farsi speakers at time struggle to understand Dari speakers but many Dari speakers can very well 'convert' to Farsi. Though the words you never should use with Farsi speakers are as followed and I will tell you later why; Kachalu, Asta and Ghalat.

Luffy wrora, Roshina khorey doorost gofta. E saah e ast. (Roshina said it right. It's correct)

so, Qadiani when are you going to learn Pashto? Or even better, when are you going to return back to Islam?

[MeemWawMeemNoon]

Sangar lala,

Allah is my witness I love you a lot. You are always in my prayers. Wallahi, I long to see you one day. Insha Allah next time I come to Europe, I will try to stop by Holland.

Your love for Islam brings tears to my eyes. May Allah always keep you safe and away from the enemies of Islam.
