Hello Everyone,
My name is Parmis and like many of you I love learning languages.
I am fluent in English and Persian. As of now I have set a personal goal to focus on developing my intermediate French language skills (B1.1) to the best of my abilities; this means that I would like to converse with greater ease and read more challenging books in topics I enjoy like art, culture, politics, etc. I am also building my base at beginner level Italian and hope to start conversing with iTalki Italian tutors soon.
In the future I would love to learn Arabic, Hebrew, Turkish, Mandarin and Mongolian--all languages I find truly fascinating--but that really is a lifelong ambition! It's fun to explore.
C'est toujours un plaisir de discuter avec Parmis! Nos discussions sont toujours amusantes et intéressantes. Ton niveau s'améliore à chaque fois, continue ainsi !!!
la leçon c'est bien passée. Parmis est une très bonne élève, gentille. mais surtout attentive avec elle la discussion est facile.

Personally, I believe that adults should learn swear words as they master the language. You don't have to use them but how can you understand the essence of a language if you don't experience it in its totality? Swear words exist for a reason. Better yet, they can be windows into what the cultural values exist within the language itself.

We use the word "they". Referring to a human being, or even a living creature as "it" can be perceived as a gross insult; as though you are dehumanizing the individual as an object.
