这是我最喜欢的一本书《平凡的世界》里我最喜欢的一句话：“谁让你读了这么多书，又知道了双水村以外还有个大世界……如果从小你就在这个天地里日出而作，日落而息，那你现在就会和众乡亲抱同一理想：经过几年的辛劳，像大哥一样娶个满意的媳妇，生个胖儿子，加上你的体魄，会成为一名出色的庄稼人。不幸的是，你知道的太多了，思考的太多了，因此才有了这种不能为周围人所理解的苦恼。”

Hi everyone, I am Sara and this is Persian made EZ, episode 3.

“Khabar” and its plural form “khabar-(h)ā” is the news in Persian.
So we say, “che khabar?”, or “che khabar-(h)ā?” to say, “what’s the news?”, “what’s new?”, or “what’s up?”.
 
To this we often say “salāmat-i!”. 
Salāmat-i means health, and in this context we use it to say, “not much!”. 

We can also respond to “che khabar?” and “che khabar-(h)ā?” with, “hich-chi(z), salāmat-i!”, literally, “nothing, just health!”.

And then we can ask, “to che khabar?” (informal), or “shomā che khabar?” (formal/plural), and “to che khabar-hā?” (Inf.), or “Shomā che khabar-hā?” (frm./pl.).

Let’s practice!
