Learn Persian with Chaian Conversation, lesson 47.

Hello and welcome to Learn Persian with Chaya and Conversation, the podcast for anyone looking to learn conversational Persian.

My name is Leila, and I'll be your teacher for the course.

And my name is Matt, and I will be learning Persian along with you.

Chaya Conversation will teach you conversational Persian in weekly lessons of about 15 minutes each.

If you know anything about Iranians, they don't do anything without first grabbing a cup of tea,

or as they call it, Chai.

So pour yourself a cup and join us in learning the Persian language.

Hello and welcome to Learn Persian with Chai and Conversation.

As you know, we're in Unit 5 of the program, and we're calling this our Power Series.

We're learning grammar and vocabulary that will help you to communicate like a pro.

And this is the third episode in our Kitchen Persian series,

and in this lesson, we're going to actually take you into the kitchen and talk about one of my favorite topics, and that is breakfast. Breakfast is a very important part of any Iranians day and a very

consistent one at that. It's not as heavy as, say, an American breakfast, but it's a great time

for family to come together and have a light, delicious meal and chaya, of course, before everyone separates and goes about on their days. So we're going to get right on with the program.

Are you ready to begin, Matt?

Ready.

Great. Then let's begin to learn Persian with chai and conversation.

So first of all, the word for breakfast in the Persian language is Sobhani.

Sobhani.

And Matt, do you recognize one of the words in there, the word sob? Remember what that means?

Morning.
