Persian surprises me every day! I wish I had started learning it earlier.
You know, Turkish and Persian have many loan words from Arabic. Turkish borrowed a lot of words from Persin, too. Apart from these, Persian has similarities with English. All these makes Persian a very easy language for me. A lot of sentences have similarities. Examples? Here they are:
Persian: (on the telephone) Salom Baba, manam.
Turkish: Selam Baba, benim.
Persian: Emruz hava khaili sard.
Turkish: Bu gün hava hayli sert.
Nice, isn't it?
I like this place. I'll be around.
