Speak Lesson 11 | How to Speak About the Languages You Know

Speak Lesson 11 | How to Speak About the Languages You Know

When talking to someone in something other than your native language, it sometimes helps to know what other languages they speak. This not only helps you to learn more about a person, but can also potentially give you insight into other things you have in common with them. In this Persian / Farsi lesson, we learn how to talk about the languages we can speak, learn the words for different languages, and learn to speak about the proficiency with with we speak certain languages. Also, importantly, we learn how to tell people to slow down if they're speaking too fast for us to understand.

KEY CONCEPTS:

  • Telling others which languages we can speak
  • Telling others the proficiency with which we can speak those languages
  • The names for different popular languages
  • Ask others to slow down when speaking
  • Ask others how to say something in Persian
