==Cultural insights==
==== Exercise 9: Vocabulary Quiz ====


In Persian culture, names are very important and often have significant meanings associated with them. Many Persian names are derived from Arabic, Persian or ancient Zoroastrian vocabulary and have religious or cultural significance. Iranians are also proud of their family names and attach great importance to their family's genealogy.
Take a quiz on the vocabulary learned in this lesson. Translate the following words into English.


It is customary to address people using their first name followed by their title, such as "Mohammad Agha" (Mr. Mohammad) or "Maryam Khanoom" (Ms. Maryam). Addressing someone by their first name alone may be considered too informal or impolite, especially in formal or public settings.
1. خوشحالم


Professions and occupations are also an important aspect of Persian identity and social status. It is common to ask about people's professions as a way of showing interest and respect. In Iran, there are many professions that are traditionally associated with certain regions or communities, such as carpet weaving in Kashan or music in Kerman.
2. معلم


==Exercise: Introducing ourselves==
3. شغل


Now let's practice introducing ourselves in Persian. Choose a Persian name and a profession or hobby that you like, and use the vocabulary and phrases we learned to create a short introduction.  
4. خانواده


For example: "من سارا هستم. حرفه‌ام معلم است." (Man Sara hastam. Harefeyeam malem ast.) / I am Sara. My profession is teaching.
5. دوست


==Exercise: Introducing others==
'''Solutions:'''


Now let's practice introducing others in Persian. Imagine that you are introducing your friend to someone else. Use the vocabulary and phrases we learned to create a short introduction.
1. Nice to meet you


For example: "این علی است. حرفه‌اش دانشجوی پزشکی است." (In Ali ast. Harefeash daaneshjoo-ye pezeshki ast.) / This is Ali. His profession is medical student.  
2. Teacher


==Conclusion==
3. Profession
