This week, we learned how to express degrees of comparison in Farsi. To put an adjective in the comparative form, add –tar to the end as a suffix. To put an adjective in the superlative form, add –tarin to the end. ‘Big’ in Farsi is ‘bozorg’. ‘Bigger’ would be ‘bozogtar,’ and ‘biggest’ would be ‘bozogtarin.’ My language partner had us write three sentences for twenty different adjectives, using the three forms of the adjective.
We also had a short quiz on what we have been learning over the past few weeks.
I finished the first unit of Rosetta Stone this week. In unit 1, level 1, I learned basic vocabulary such as the words for different types of food (coffee, bread, etc.), people (man, woman, etc.), how to make the plural form of a word, and basic verbs (to run, to read, to cook, etc.) and how to use it all in a sentence.
