Synopsis
in this lesson, we are going to cover the concept of being hosted, either at someone's house or at an establishment. Iranians love to host people. For instance, when you visit someone of Persian decent at their home, they will most likely immediately offer you tea. So in this lesson we learn vocabulary that is associated with hosting or being hosted, including the names of different beverages, and how to offer things to guest or accept offerings. KEY CONCEPTS: Names of beverages you'll be offered in an Iranian household (hint, chāi is at the top of the list) The names of alcoholic beverages How to offer something when you are hosting How to accept or decline an offer when being hosted Some polite vocabulary such as thank you (merci) and please (lotfan)
