Learning Persian and common questions

Earlier I viewed a post about how to make basic sentences and the examples were all formal. If I want to make them informal, would it be like this:

- (formal) Man yek ketab dashtam (informal) Man ye ketab dashtam
- (formal) Man to ra anja didam (informal) man to ro anja didam (for this can I write 'to ro' like 'toro' ?? Or would it mean something else?)

Hi there, your first example is correct.
The second one has only one problem. The informal form of "anja" is "unja". You can write "toro" or "to ro", it doesn't make any difference but according to the fact that "to" and "ro" are separate words, it is better to write them separately.

HI SOORATI-ANGEL!

That you learn more there than here is only because you haven't start asking yet. Whatever questions you have, you can get an answer here from the various Iranian friends teaching us here, Like VeryClever, so just be cool and ASK!
As long as you ask, this thread will stay interesting and tempting. It is the same for me. Believe me!

Oh okay I see now! At first I thought I wouldn't need to change 'anja' to 'oonja'.
Thank you!!

Oh thank you very much! For sure I will be asking a lot of questions here!!

Hellooo
I have one question: Are these translations correct???

-Bazam Mikham Bargarde- I want to come back again/ Again I want to come back
-Dobare Dobare- Again Again
-Nagoo- don’t say
-Bi to ba to- with you for you??
-Man balad nist- I can’t speak/talk
-Vaghti hasti- when you are here? Or when you are
-Kenare to- Besides you??
-Rafti namoondi- you left with no regret
-Royaye man- Dream of Mine or My Dream
-Ye roozi- someday
-Ye jaei- somewhere
-Aroom- Peace (or quiet)
-Toye mehmooni emshab- your party tonight
-Nefrin- Curse

And what are the translations of these as well:
-Gharar Nabood
-Baaz dare baroon mibare
-Midoonestam
-Dar naro
-Hasti vali che boodani
-Tekrar
-Age (and how would you use this??)
-Bord
-Taghas
-Kashki
-Bigharar
-Boghz
-Bahoone

For sure my friend:

-Bazam Mikham Bargarde- I want him/her to come back again
-Dobare Dobare- Again and Again
-Nagoo- don’t say
-Bi to ba to- with or without you
-Man balad nistam- I don't know
-Vaghti hasti- when you are here? Or when you are (both of them are right. It depends on the situation.)
-Kenare to- Beside you
-Rafti namoondi- you left (and) didn't stay
-Royaye man- Dream of Mine or My Dream
-Ye roozi- someday
-Ye jaei- somewhere
-Aroom- Peaceful (or quiet)
-Toye mehmooni emshab- In the party tonight
-Nefrin- Curse

And what are the translations of these as well:
-Gharar Nabood = It shouldn't be that way
-Baaz dare baroon mibare = It's raining again
-Midoonestam = I knew
-Dar naro = Don't run away
-Hasti vali che boodani = You're here but your mind is somewhere else
-Tekrar = Repetition
-Age (and how would you use this??) = Sen or Sâl or Sen o sâl
The most common way is like that:

How old are you? = Chand sâleteh? (informal)

-Bord = Victory
-Taghas = Compensation
-Kashki = I wish
-Bigharar = nervous/restless
-Boghz = Sob or hatred
-Bahoone = Excuse (noun)

hey guyssssssssssss...what's up???i missed you all so very muchWHAT DO U DO THESE DAYS?anyway,i was reading previous pages and realized that some of you are confused about "mi" so i thought maybe a little explanation can make it more clear :
"mi" is used for "present tense" and "present continous" and even for "past continous"..but the way you make these tense is different.
for example for making "present tense we need : Subject+mi+present root of the verb+suffix
Man mi+khan+am>>>Man mikhanam(I read)...as u can see, "man" is subject and "khan" is the present root of the verb "khandan(to read)...in Farsi, each verb has 2 roots : present root and past root....for making present tense/present continous we use "present root" and for makin past tense/past continous/past perfect/present perfect we use the past root.let me tell you some of the roots :
1)Raftan(to go)
present root=ro
past root=raft

2)Khabidan(to sleep)
present root=khab
past root=khabid

3)khordan(to eat)
present root=khor
past root=khord

4)dadan(to give)
present root=deh
past root=dad

5)didan(to see)
present root=bin
past root=did

Hi my dear pinky girl,
I'm so happy to see you here again. We all miss you so much too.
Thank you for your explanations. They're great as always.

Omidvaram emtehanate miyan term o payan term ro aali bedi ta tabestoon bishtar be inja sar bezani.

now by using the present roots we can make present tense :

Man mi+khab+am>>>Man mikhabam (i sleep)
To mi+khor+i>>>>>>To mikhori(you eat...)
Ma mi+bin+im>>>>>Ma mibinim( We see...)

now the formula for making present continous tense : Subject+dar{am,i,ad,im,id,and}+mi+present root+suffix
I'm gonna conjugate a verb to show you how it is :

**Bordan(to take):
Man + dar+am+ mi+ bar+am>>>Man daram mibaram( the present root of "bordan" is "bar")(I'm taking)

To+ dar+i+mi+bar+i>>>>>>>To dari mibari(you(singular) are taking)

Ou+dar+ad+mi+bar+ad>>>Ou darad mibarad(He/she is taking)

Ma+dar+im+mi+bar+im>>>Ma darim mibarim(we are taking)

shoma+dar+id+mi+bar+id>>>shoma darid mibarid(you(plural) are taking)

Anha dar+and+mi+bar+and>>>Anha darand mibarand(they are taking)

Oh thank you!
I learned from some of my mistakes in the first part.

What's the rule for using 'kon'??
Is it like you always use it for when you or someone else is doing??
Can someone explain??

Aghajan,
you're right. But we don't know the pronunciation of most words. At least the Persian Learners...


--
And I've a question;

how must I write the plural nouns? For example; is چشمهای in capital letters CHESHMAYE ?
Or دستهای is DASTAYE? Or DASTEHAYE?

kardan forms compound verbs with nouns proceeding it. it means to do, so think about if the sentence is: man emshab kaar nemikonam. I do not work tonight. kaar=work, task, duty.
other examples are
to accept-ghabool kardan; qhabool=acceptance قبول کردن
to think-fekr kardan;fekr=thought, idea فکر کردن
oboor kardan-to cross, traverse;oboor=passing, passage, crossing, transit عبور کردن

Oh I see then...
for the example 'to think'.
If I wanted to say 'I thought' I would ' man fekr mikardam'
And if I wanted to say 'I'm thinking' I would say 'man fekr mikonam' (are these correct?)

And when I want to make the sentence or word negative, would it be like this?? :
ex: gerye nakon

I was just trying to make sentences for using 'kon/kard'.. are they correct? Excuse me for my sentece structure btw.
- man nemitoonam download konam
- man emrooz mehmooni konam
- to emrooz kaar koni (or would it be 'to emrooz kaar mikoni')
- man ghabool kardam

Are these correct?? I found these from a website but I wasn't so sure if they were correct because some just didn't look right to me...
