I want to call my son nipple monster, whats the best way

Hi everyone I’m thinking about getting my mom a copy of Moby Dick but in Farsi. She told me she used to love reading books back in Iran years ago but ever since immigrating to the U.S. she’s slowly stopped. I’m having trouble finding where to even get it in Farsi. A lot of the websites I’m on seem kind of shady or just outright super expensive. Like $50+ dollars.

I want to get her a copy for Christmas. She’s never heard of it and I’m sure she would love it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I was watching The Penguin and the wife of the rival family's leader is played by Shohreh Aghdashloo. Their mafia footsoldiers seem to all be Iranians too, with Persian names like Taj etc. They speak unsubtitled Persian to one another, so if you don't know Persian you won't be able to tell their ethnicity.

This makes me wonder what other popculture media has Persian-language content without drawing attention to it? Making it a bonus for anyone able to understand it. Can you name some franchises or works?

I can think of What we do in the Shadows, it's quite clear Kayvan Novak is Iranian, but his character is an unspecified Middle Eastern medieval warlord. He speaks Persian often, but it's never mentioned as such.

Somewhat more puzzling is the fact that in Cowboy Bebop anime Persian is one of the official languages on Venus, and there's a few billboard and information signs in Persian. As far as I can telli the series was all made by Japanese before Google Translate was around, so I'm guessing somebody on the animation crew just learned Persian.

Yall, I'm starting from ground zero.

I've asked chat & tried google translate, but I can't figure out what this word means. I'm not sure if my pronunciation is bad, but chat is saying Bah Lay means whale.

I'm assuming it means "look" or maybe "see", but when I look those words up, it's not this word.

In the video it sounds like she's saying, "Bah Lay". She's saying "bah lay sefid"...

Something white.

hello everyone, i would like to buy a translated version of les fleurs du mal (flowers of evil) of Charles Baudelaire. i found a translated hard copy version on this website : گل‌های بدی https://www.digibookshahr.com/

Anyone has an idea? is there a trustworthy agent service?

For example, in Masnavi: http://www.masnavi.net/1/50/eng/1/462/

جان بدادی گر بدو گفتی بمیر

Why is it گفتی? Is it older language?

Hi everyone,

I've been trying to purchase the book "Absorbing Persian" by David Pendlebury since it is exactly what I am looking for, but it seems the original publisher has ceased to operate and as a result the book is now out of print. I have contacted an organisation that is meant to continue the original publisher for guidance, but in case they reply in the negative, I was wondering if anyone knows where I might be able to get a copy of this book?

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone heard of NaTakallam? https://natakallam.com
They do language classes with a person, online, and include Farsi, Dari, Arabic, and several other languages. I am hoping to get someone's experience with them as I shop around for someone to help me take the next language step.

Salam bache, I was wondering if anyone knows how to make a nastiliq? I need it to say Al-Shifaa. I have no idea how to make them by hand and I needed it for a sort of logo. Please let me know if there are any online resources that would make it digitally or if anyone would be willing to do it by hand and send a photo? thanks in advance!

Salaam everyone,

I’m Afghan-American and grew up in the US, so I only know a little Dari. I really want to reconnect with my culture and learn the language properly. I found this Dari course and was wondering if it’s a good resource.

https://fsi-languages.yojik.eu/languages/DLI/DLI-Dari.html#

I’m hoping to learn both Dari and Farsi over time, but I want to start with Dari. Since my focus is on Afghan Dari, do you think this course would be worth my time? My goal is to study consistently and build a solid understanding. If you’ve used this course or have other suggestions, I’d be glad to hear.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
