Let's break down each number with its pronunciation and usage.
Let's practice the pronunciation of these numbers:

Well done! Now you can count from 1 to 20 in Dari. Let's move on to some practice exercises to reinforce what you have learned.

2. Translate the following Dari numbers into English:

== Cultural Insights ==


=== Six (شش) ===
In Dari-speaking countries like Afghanistan and Iran, numbers play an important role in everyday life. They are used not only for counting and measuring but also in various cultural contexts. For example, in Afghan culture, it is common to use numbers to express respect or formality. When addressing someone older or in a position of authority, it is customary to add the number "سه" (seh) before their name as a sign of respect. This practice demonstrates the significance of numbers beyond their numerical value.


The number "six" in Dari is شش (shash), which has a soft and short 'sh' sound. It's a relatively easy word to remember and pronounce, making it a simple addition to your vocabulary.
Additionally, knowing the numbers in Dari will help you understand and appreciate traditional Afghan or Iranian songs, poems, and literature. Many classical works rely on numerical symbolism and wordplay, making it essential to grasp the meanings associated with different numbers.


=== Seven (هفت) ===
== Conclusion ==


The Dari word for "seven" is هفت (haft), which is a crucial number in Dari culture, especially in the Koran. Seven is considered a holy number, so it's essential to learn how to accurately pronounce and use it.
Congratulations on completing the lesson on Dari numbers from 1 to 20! You have learned how to count and pronounce these numbers accurately.
