Hi everyone! I am looking for a partner to speak French with. Whether you are a native speaker looking to learn English, or even if you are also learning French yourself, I am sure we can help each other. My level is B1/A2.

Persian Plural Hi, So in Persian there are five ways I know to make a plural. ها for non-living things, آن for living things, آت is the Arabic feminine plural for non-living things, ین is the Arabic masculine plural for living things, and finally the broken Arabic plural. So: For "ها" the word کلید would become کلیدها. For "آن" the wordافسر would become افسران. And دانشجو would become دانشجویان. And پرنده would become پرندگان. For "آت" the word مایع would become مایعات. And حیوان would become حیوانات. And میوه would become میوجات. For "ین" the word مترجم would become مترجمین. For broken plural the word موج would become اواج. And فصل would become فصول. And منظره would become مناظر. And شعر would become اشعار. However, I also heard that in conversation ها is more common. So is it better to just say: کلیدها، افسرها، مایعها، میوه ها، مترجمها، فصلها، منظره ها، شعرها? And furthermore, contracting ها to just آ? But people still say آقایان, so how do I know when to use which? Help is much appreciated!

How to say "how" in Persian To say “how” in Persian you can use چطور. So if I wanted to say, “how are you?” I could say حال شما چطور است؟ But to say something like “I forgot how to speak English”, why do we add ی to چطور? یادم رفته چطوری انگلیسی صحبت کنم Grammatically speaking, why can’t we just use چطور here too? What is the ی doing? Also, is چجور and چگونه both used in the exact same way as چطور? And if so, which is the most common in conversation?

The use of 'digar' in Persian Hi, I know دیگر can be used to mean many things in Persian. For example, 'no longer' or 'other'. However, I can across this sentence and I don't understand how it is being used. ما که نمی دانیم دیگر I figure it means "we don't know", but why is 'digar' there? Thanks for your help!

How do you say "how old do I look" in Persian? So I know to say something like, "it looks like a hard problem", you could say: مسئله خیلی سخت به نظر می‌ آید Now if I want to say "how old to I look", I would say something like: چند سال به نظر می رسم؟ However, I have read it as: چند ساله به نظر می رسم؟ What is the 'e' doing on the end of 'sal'? Is it the short form of the verb 'hast'? Or maybe some use of the ezafe? Could the first example also be written with the 'e' as in: مسئله خیلی سخته به نظر می آید? Could someone please explain to me this grammar?

How do you naturally say these sentences in Persian? To say "I want to eat", I know you use the subjunctive form and it looks something like this: می‌خواهم بخورم But how do you form these other sentences with infinitives in them?: I need to eat I started to eat I learnt to dance I started to learn to dance These are my guesses? Any correct? خوردن را لازم دارم خوردن را شروع کردم رقصیدن را یاد گرفتم رقصیدن را یاد گرفتن را شروع کردم Also, are any of these alternative sentences natural?: شروع به خوردن کردم شروع کردم به خوردن شروعِ خوردن کردم (with ezafe) Any hints in general to making some of these sentences? Or what is the most casual and most formal ways of saying these things? Thanks!
