In Telling Time and Understanding Business Hours, we not only learn how to ask and tell the time but also comprehend business and working hours in Farsi-speaking countries.

You'll be able to schedule appointments, make reservations, and handle all the details that come with planning ahead in Farsi.

Our conversation then turns festive as we explore Planning for Holidays and Special Occasions. Farsi has its own set of cultural celebrations and by understanding the language that surrounds these events, you will be able to partake in and appreciate these occasions alongside native speakers. Moreover, structuring your days and efficiently communicating about them is another skill to be honed in Talking About Daily Routines and Schedules. By doing so, you can share a piece of your life and routines with others, forging deeper intercultural connections through shared experiences.

You will also become weather-wise by Describing Weather Conditions and Seasons, a conversation starter in any language. Finally, the lesson rounds out with the ability to articulate experiences across time, as we delve into Conversing About Past, Present, and Future Events. This skill is especially helpful when reflecting on past memories, enjoying the present moment, or making plans for the future with Farsi-speaking friends or colleagues.

Grasping these components of language ensures that your conversations flow naturally and that you're well prepared for a wide array of daily interactions.
