Journal Entry 6
My goals this week is to solidify my understanding of pronouns and possession in Persian, as well as numbers and “question words.” As usual, I am working from my textbook and with Mahshad, but I am supplementing it with a website on Persian numbers that Mahshad recommended and am trying to do basic math problems in Persian, which is significantly more difficult to do than I was anticipating. It is somewhat embarrassing for someone whose passed calculus to struggle with comprehending basic addition.
Culture Post 5
I would like to learn about food and cooking in Persian culture. I would like to know broadly how does Persian cuisine vary depending on region, how similar it is to nearby cuisines, what its influences were, and how it emerged. I do not want to just look up Persian translations of various fruits and dishes, but instead how they are prepared and their cultural significance.
