This week we began working on verb conjugations. Now with the vocabulary I have learned I have been able to form simple sentences. I still hope to be able to put more time into Rosetta Stone over the next few weeks and continue listening to news podcasts in Farsi. Hopefully by learning more verbs and verb endings I will be able to pick up on more words in the podcasts. This coming week we will continue learning about verb tenses by working with the past tense.
Along with working on the verb conjugations I have continued working on reading and writing. I have been able to write out the simple sentences I come up with. This not only helps with verb conjugations but it also helps me to remember the rules for connecting certain letters to others and remembering which forms of letters to use in different locations of the word. My handwriting has also improved but it still takes me a while to write anything in Farsi because I'm not used to writing from right to left.
Over the next few days I plan to catch up with my artifacts by using writing samples, typing out simple sentences to practice typing and spelling, and recording a conversation between me and another Farsi student.
