EnglishWhat Extra Practice Resources Does Easy Persian Offer?
Updated
Easy Persian offers three supplementary practice resources beyond its main lesson sequence: a Writing Lessons page, a Useful Drills page, and a Persian Samples page of bilingual poetry. All three are designed to reinforce the letters and material covered in the weekly lessons, and none of them require registration or sign-up — you can click into any lesson or resource directly from the site.
Writing Lessons
This page is aimed at learners who want to learn to write in Persian. According to the site, it presents the same letters you have just studied in the current week's lesson, so it functions as a handwriting companion to the alphabet lessons rather than a separate curriculum.
Best for: anyone who can recognize the letters but wants to produce them by hand.
Useful Drills
The drills page is for practicing reading and writing Farsi. The site notes one prerequisite: you should at least be able to recognize the letters learned that week before using the drills. That makes it a review tool tied to your current position in the lesson sequence, not a standalone beginner exercise set.
Best for: consolidating a week's letters through active practice before moving on.
Persian Samples
This page is dedicated to Persian poetry. The samples are presented in a bilingual format to help your understanding, which means you can compare the Persian text against an English translation as you read.
Best for: seeing the alphabet and vocabulary in real, connected text — and for getting an early feel for Persian literary language.
How the Resources Fit Together
| Resource | Skill practiced | When to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Writing Lessons | Handwriting the letters | Alongside the current week's alphabet lesson |
| Useful Drills | Reading and writing Farsi | After you can recognize that week's letters |
| Persian Samples | Reading connected text | As a supplement once you have some letters and vocabulary |
The site describes these as additions to the main lessons, not replacements. The lessons themselves run in a numbered sequence — Lesson 1 covers the alphabet, short vowels, and the letters B, P, and T; Lesson 2 moves to long vowels; Lessons 3 through 7 work through the alphabet in letter groups (from /alef/ to /he/, then /khe/ to /ze/, /zhe/ to /za:d/, /ta:/ to /ghæin/, and /fe/ to /ga:f/).
A Practical Way to Use Them
A simple routine that matches how the site describes these pages:
- Work through the current alphabet lesson.
- Open Writing Lessons and practice forming that week's letters by hand.
- Move to Useful Drills once you can recognize those letters, and practice reading and writing with them.
- Visit Persian Samples when you want to read connected Persian text in a bilingual format.
If you are brand new to the site, the getting started page is the recommended entry point before diving into the numbered lessons and these practice pages.
