if you really like to learn Persian,You know, about 20 years ago I had an Iranian girlfriend. She taught me how to write my name like that. I learned much more, but now, the girlfriend is long gone and the only things I still remember is a couple of very bad words and how to write my name in Farsi
Thanks for the offer. One of my closest colleagues is Iranian and in the other corridor we there is another Iranian colleague. So if I really want to I can ask them I suppose. Hammet actually taught me to play the Sitar (i think that's what the name is), a Persian lute. Great instrument. I still want him to do a song with my band. He still did not answer on that oneif you really like to learn Persian,
I can help you.
No problem.

Google Translate reageert niet: probeer het opnieuw.من رفتم، دیدم او را نشسته، گفتم اجازه دهید از او بپرسم، او می آید یا نه. او پاسخ داد: نمی خواهم بیا، فقط اجازه دارم به خانه بروم و بخوابم.
Mine said (in Dutch) "Google translate is not reacting, please try again"
What I found interesting in Saudi Arabia is that firstly we call our numbers in the west "Arabic" when they are actually Persian. Secondly while the script is read from right to left the numbers are written down in the same way by both. Therefore someone reading an Arabic text comes to the lowest digit first like unit, tens, hundreds, thousands etc. Whereas in the west we read Thousands hundreds, tens, units.Persian, Arabic, Kurdish and all other languages that are written with Arabic Script, have Something interesting ...

Persian: 32 letters.Now that's pretty interesting. How many letters does Persian have?

How does an Arabic speaker read out a number?
ARTESH, I was only asking the basic principle. Is a translation of "three hundred and thirty three" into an Arabic script language the same or three and thirty and threehundred?Afew things you must know:
1- Persian is written in Arabic Script. BUT it is not a Semythic language.
2- Even a well educated native Persian Speaker can not Speak Arabic very good.
as an example, myself, i can only Conjugate simple past of a few Arabic Verbs.
and only Arabic sentence i know is:
ا تعلمین من هو ؟
wich means "Do you Know who is he?"
Arabic is not very Popular in Iran, due to both Historical and Political reasons, as well as very weak and Completly outdated Teaching system in Iran.
A Farsi / Persian Native Speaker, can not understand a daily speach in Arabic.
