You are on the Third video of the Four-episode series of learning Persian alphabet. In Video one, we have learned the following sounds and letters:
the letters الف (a sound), ب (b sound), ن (n sound), د (d sound), ر (r sound), م (m sound), س (s sound), and also the short vowel اَ which has the a sound as in cat in English.
In the second video, you have learned پ (p sound), ت (t sound), ز (z sound), ش (sh sound as in the beginning of the English word SHE), و (v sound), ه (h sound) and ی ( y sound as in the beginning of the word YES in English) and also ک (k sound).
In this video, you will learn the following sounds and letters:
ف (f sound), ح (h sound, this is only different in writing otherwise the sound is exactly the same as ه sound that we have learned in the second video), خ (kh sound, in IPA the symbol is x. You might have a problem producing x sound at the beginning, but don’t worry, I teach you how to make it), چ (ch sound as in the beginning and the end of the English word CHURCH), and ج (j sound, as in the beginning and end of the English word JUDGE). We also learn how to write گ (g sound), ل (L sound), ژ (zh sound as in the sound that you can find with -SI in the English word Television). Then we read and write a simple Persian text using the Persian alphabet that we have learned in these three videos.
