[Learn Persian Bootcamp] Week #5 Assignments!
|
We now move into week 5 of the bootcamp, as we continue with this somber chapter of Iranian history- hope you are all doing well, and taking care of yourselves. A couple orders of business: First, this week's assignments: Complete beginner here, and not so beginner/advanced here. Live check in will be with me and Vijay today- these have been so fun, I'm going to have a hard time giving them back to our community manager Monelli! You can RSVP and join us here. Next, I really enjoyed reading your answers to my last week's question of the week! If you didn't get a chance to check it out, you can see here. And finally- One last thing I want to share, just as context: We’re in the middle of rolling out some big updates to Chai and Conversation — including a new dashboard and a brand new Culture section (which you can preview now!). It’s exciting, and it also marks a shift into the next phase of the program. I’ll talk more about what that means next week. For now, just keep showing up in whatever way you can. I’m really glad you’re here — and I hope to see you later today. ghorbāné shomā, Leyla |

salām shāgerdāné aziz (hello dear students), I know this year's nowruz feels different for many of us. What is happening in Iran- what has been happening- touches every family in this community in one way or another. I've thought a lot about whether this is the right moment to send these letters, whether celebrating feels wrong, whether joy is something we're allowed to have right now. And I keep coming back to this: nowruz is not a celebration that depends on circumstances. It is the earth...
