I'm from Iran and you pronounced Chaharshanbe Soori almost perfectly 🤩. BTW, It's been 6-7 years that I enjoy your fantastic videos and now I'm over the moon that you said something in Persian dear Aly 🥺❣️

Haha thanks for going easy on me! ✌️🤓

It's great to see a summary thingy of the week for those of us that don't join the classes. Thanks!

Can I just say that both of your students shown in the video are awesome! The girl speaks with a great British accent, just tell her for me she's doing a marvellous job! Cheers :)

Thank you. 👍

zaddy right there is my cousin!!! 10/10.

Dude you deserve more subscribers. Other youtubers are not better than you.

Hi! Happy new year! 😁

In Russian Orthodoxy, there is a tradition to plunge into the ice hole. This happens on the night of January 19. The holiday is called Epiphany.

You actually pronounced "chahar shanbeh soory" very well 😍👌🏻

Hullo. I guessed this one 2:22. I guess your lessons are working out for me, I guess. I guess I overdid it on the verb 'to guess'? Dunno, anyway... cheers!

Talking about Christmas..in Poland we celebrate Christmas Eve more than the Christmas Day itself x we traditionally have 12 dishes (followed by 12 Christ's apolostoles), but usually it's not that many as no one would eat that 🙄 dishes contain fish, cabbage, beans, beetroot, mushroom...basically - no meat x also, we do celebrate a 2nd Christmas Day (!) , which is a Boxing Day in UK (it is a day-off though)

Ali? How do you participate in class from Iran? Tell me the secret of your success :/

The lessons are free?

what's the problem with people jumping over bonfires and fireworks? that's kinda dangerous, innit? in Brasil (northeast) we also have it, exactly as Ali (the Iranian) said like tipical food, families, friends all together, with traditional music and dances... but it happens in June, (Junine festival or São João festival)

Actually I'm dreading of "Chahar shanbeh Story" Because many people are seriously injured every year due to fire or sudden fears🤕😣

Sometimes I get stucked by the doubt (very basic thing, though) when do I use to make and when to use to do. Which one suits better in different situations. For instance: the passenger made the booking wrongly, or the passenger did the booking wrongly? If you could explain this one, I'll really appreciate it. You videos are awsome, thank you so much for all the knowledge you share.

The verb "make" is usually used with bookings but "do" is also correct. "Wrongly" is a weird word, by the way: it's usually only used before verbs. "The passenger made the booking wrong" would be right, but so would "the passenger wrongly booked a flight to Paris, Texas instead of Paris, France." (Notice that "book" is used as a verb there.) Also, *if* you use a conditional in the first part of a sentence, you *would* use "would" (the past tense of "will," in the subjunctive mood) for the second part of your sentence. If you could remember that, I'd be very impressed!

@@maxk1273 Thank you! And you're right... The word wrongly didn't fit well, here. Thanx 😊

Chaharshanbe Soori is worse than what you think in Iran. It's not about pleasure, it's about the sound of firecrackers and grenades🤣

Thanx prof , but can I say I’m good at cooking ?

Hi Aly, fantastic video! 👍 Looking forward to seeing you on Sunday.

the phrase "overdose(OD)" has another mean...

Ally this might sound stupid ..but even then I want to ask you..I have learnt many ways to say thank you and welcome..but what confuses me a lot is what to say to the salesman after purchasing from the shop..when they say thank you I feel like the replies welcome,my pleasure, no problem etc is not an apt one..if I am wrong plz correct me..

@maxk1273

All of those are fine! "No worries," "no, thank YOU," "cheers, have a good one," are all good, or you could also just say "thanks" right back. Of course, the most popular one is "you too" (meaning "thank you as well"), and people always make fun of each other for accidentally saying it when the salesperson wishes them "happy birthday" or a server says "enjoy your meal."

This "cold water blessing" made up in ruSSia (not surprising, their "christianity" has little of christianity itself) and may be practiced in neighboring countries.

That 'water blessing' is actually called 'baptism'.
