大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【朋友】的话题。
提到朋友，很多人会第一时间想到美剧Friends，中文是《老友记》。这是一部陪伴很多人青春的经典美剧，很多中国人通过看《老友记》学习英语。我记得上大学的时候，大家经常在宿舍看美剧，其中《老友记》是最受欢迎的。我们喜欢它，是因为我们羡慕他们那样珍贵的友情和爱情。
在中国有一首关于友情的歌，很多人去KTV都会唱。那就是《朋友》，我们来听一下吧。
《朋友》
朋友一生一起走，那些日子不再有
一句话，一辈子
一生情，一杯酒
朋友不曾孤单过，一声朋友你会懂
还有伤，还有痛
还要走，还有我

朋友是我们生命中很重要的存在，在中文里面有很多关于朋友的古话。“在家靠父母，出门靠朋友。”意思是我们在家里的时候有父母照顾我们，我们可以依靠父母。我们离开家的时候，有朋友帮助，我们可以依靠朋友。
小时候，我们会在给朋友的卡片上写“友谊天长地久”，希望我们的友谊永远都在。长大后我们发现，不是所有的友谊都能天长地久。因为人是会变的，可能我们生活的环境不一样了，可能我们的想法不一样了。不管怎么样，我们都应该好好珍惜每一段友谊。
你最好的朋友是谁呢？你们认识多久了？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Grammar Point: The verb (to be) boodan
While reading the Conversation, you might have wondered why the counterpart of the English verb “is” in Farsi (ast )
had different forms in different places. For instance, when Nasrin introduced her husband to her mom, she said, In
Dānieleh (This is Daniel). In another place, Nasrin asked her mom, Farzād kojāst? (Where is
Farzad?).
Like English, Farsi also uses both full and contracted forms of the verb to be. In English, we can say, “I am happy,” “Jane is
beautiful,” and “You are smart,” or we can contract the verb and say, “I’m happy,” “Jane’s beautiful,” and “You’re smart.” In
the same way, Nasrin used contracted forms of the be-verb.
Like most Indo-European languages, Farsi verbs are conjugated. Conjugation means that speakers attach endings to verbs
that provide information about the person, number, and tense of a verb. In Farsi, very often pronouns are omitted from
sentences because the verb endings imply the pronoun.

more examples:

مُعَلِّمَم=معلمم   moallemam = moallem hastam = I'm a teacher.
دُکتُری= دکتری؟  Doctori?        = Doctor hasti?        = are you a doctor?
تاجِره= تاجره       Tajere            = Tajer hast              = he's/she's a business(wo)man.
خُوشحالیم = خوشحالیم   khosh'halim =khosh'hal hastim= we're happy.
ناراحَتین؟= ناراحتین          narahatin? = narahat hastin? = are you unhappy?
تو راهَن؟= تو راهن؟         tu rahan? = tu rah hastan? = are they on the way?
