About Learn Persian: 1000 Words
1000 words. That's all you need to understand 80% of everyday Persian. Order chai in a Tehran teahouse. Understand taarof instead of being confused by it. Read a line of Hafez and feel why Persians memorise him. Persian 1000 teaches the vocabulary Persian speakers actually use — so the elegant script becomes readable, not ornamental. Linguists confirm: 1000 words cover the vast majority of daily conversation in any language. We curated the exact words that matter — from salaam to the workplace, from the bazaar to the taxi queue — so every minute you spend learning pays off immediately. FEATURES: ■ 1000 Essential Words — 25 categories covering greetings, food, travel, shopping, emotions, business, culture, and more. Every word chosen for real-world frequency. ■ Spaced Repetition (SM-2) — Scientifically proven algorithm schedules reviews at the perfect moment, right before you forget. Learn once, remember forever. ■ Smart Quizzes — Multiple choice, listening comprehension, and spelling challenges. Timed rounds with accuracy tracking and combo streaks. ■ Flashcard Practice — See the meaning, flip to reveal the Persian word with native pronunciation and example sentences.
