Episode 6: Quelle est ta couleur préférée? (What's your favorite color?)

11月は日本で大学の学園祭シーズンです。学園祭とは学校のお祭りのことで、学生たちが主体となってお祭りを企画し、屋台やステージの演目を考えたり、展覧会を行ったりします。この大学の学園祭は3日間にわたって行われる予定ですが、明日は一日中雨の予報なので初日の今日、行くことにしました。

お昼前に行ったのでまだ準備ができていないところが多く、少しぶらぶらしながらライブ演奏や屋台の準備を待ちました。沖縄のドーナツであるサーターアンダーギーから菓子パン、焼きそば、お好み焼き、ポトフ、ブラジルのシュラスコなどなど色々なお店がありました。色々食べた中で1番美味しかったのは胡麻あんまんでした。仕事があったので2時間しかいられなかったのですが、雰囲気を味わうには充分でした。

いつもは閉会式の後に打ち上げ花火があり、とてもきれいだったのですが、今年は大学の創立70年ということでドローンショーがあるようです。最終日に見に行くのが楽しみです。

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?
