* من سارا هستم. (Man Sara hastam.) - I am Sara.
== Dialogue ==

=== Introducing Others ===
Now that we have learned some essential vocabulary, let's practice using it in a dialogue. In this dialogue, Sara introduces herself to Ali and asks him about his name and profession.


To introduce someone else, you can use the phrase "او" (u) followed by their name. For example, if you want to introduce your friend Ali, you would say "او علی است" (u Ali ast), which means "He is Ali."
'''Sara:''' سلام، من سارا هستم. شما چه نامی دارید؟
(Salam, man Sara hastam. Shoma che nami darid?)
Hello, my name is Sara. What is your name?


You can also include their profession when introducing them. For example, if Ali is a doctor, you would say "او علی دکتر است" (u Ali doctor ast), which means "He is Ali, a doctor."
'''Ali:''' سلام، من علی هستم. من مهندس هستم. شما چه کار می‌کنید؟
(Salam, man Ali hastam. Man mohandes hastam. Shoma che kar mikonid?)
Hello, my name is Ali. I am an engineer. What do you do?


Let's practice some examples:
'''Sara:''' من دانشجو هستم. در رشته روانشناسی تحصیل می‌کنم.
(Man daneshjoo hastam. Dar reshte ravanshenasi tahsil mikonam.)
I am a student. I am studying psychology.


* او مریم است. (U Maryam ast.) - She is Maryam.
'''Ali:''' خیلی عالی است. بهترین شغل است. موفق باشید!
* او رضا مهندس است. (U Reza mohandes ast.) - He is Reza, an engineer.
(Kheili ali ast. Behtarin shoghl ast. Movaffagh bashid!)
* او محمد حسین دانشجو است. (U Mohammad Hossein daneshjoo ast.) - He is Mohammad Hossein, a student.
That's great. It's the best profession. Good luck!


=== Asking About Names ===
== Grammar Point: Asking Questions ==


When asking someone's name in Iranian Persian, you can say "نامتان چیست؟" (nametan chist?), which means "What is your name?"
In the dialogue above, we used question words to ask about someone's name and profession. Question words are essential in forming questions in Iranian Persian. Here are some common question words:


To ask someone's surname, you can say "فامیلتان چیست؟" (familetan chist?), which means "What is your surname?"
* چه (che) - What
* چه کسی (che kasi) - Who
* چرا (chera) - Why
* کی (ki) - When
* کجا (koja) - Where
* چطور (chetor) - How
* چند (chand) - How many


Let's practice some examples:
To form a question, simply place the question word at the beginning of the sentence. For example:


* نامتان چیست؟ (Nametan chist?) - What is your name?
* چه کار می‌کنید؟ (Che kar mikonid?) - What do you do?
* فامیلتان چیست؟ (Familetan chist?) - What is your surname?
* کی می‌آید؟ (Ki miayad?) - When is he/she coming?
* چند سال دارید؟ (Chand sal darid?) - How old are you?


=== Asking About Professions ===
== Practice ==


To ask someone's profession in Iranian Persian, you can say "حرفه‌تان چیست؟" (harefetan chist?), which means "What is your profession?"
Now it's time to practice what you have learned. Use the vocabulary and grammar discussed in this lesson to introduce yourself and ask others about their names and professions. Here are some suggested questions to get you started:


Let's practice some examples:
* سلام، من <your name> هستم. شما چه نامی دارید؟

Hello, my name is <your name>. What is your name?


* حرفه‌تان چیست؟ (Harefetan chist?) - What is your profession?
* سلام، من <your name> هستم. من <your profession> هستم. شما چه کار می‌کنید؟
* شغل شما چیست؟ (Shoghl-e shoma chist?) - What is your occupation?
(Salam, man <your name> hastam. Man <your profession> hastam. Shoma che kar mikonid?)
Hello, my name is <your name>. I am a <your profession>. What do you do?


=== Cultural Tips ===
* من <your name> هستم. من <your profession> هستم. چطور می‌توانم به شما کمک کنم؟
(Man <your name> hastam. Man <your profession> hastam. Chetor mitavanam be shoma komak konam?)
I am <your name>. I am a <your profession>. How can I help you?


- In Iranian Persian culture, it is common to address people by their first names, even in formal settings. However, in more conservative or professional environments, using titles and last names may be more appropriate.
== Conclusion ==


- Iranians value politeness and respect when interacting with others. When meeting someone for the first time, it is customary to greet them with a warm smile and a handshake.
