	Hi Dari learners! 😊<br>In ~~today's~~ lesson, we will be ~~learning how to ask~~ questions in Dari. Asking questions is an ~~important~~ part of ~~any language~~, and it ~~can be tricky~~ to ~~get the grammar right. But don't worry, by the end of this lesson you'll have a good understanding of~~ how to ~~ask~~ questions in Dari.
			Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/dari Dari] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will be exploring questions in Dari. Asking questions is an essential part of communication, and it is essential to know how to form questions correctly to be able to fully understand Dari.

	__TOC__		__TOC__

	== ~~Basic Question Structure~~ ==		== Forming Yes/No Questions ==
			Yes/no questions in Dari can be formed in a straightforward manner. Simply place the verb at the beginning of the sentence, preceding the subject, and the sentence ends with a question mark. For example:
	~~The basic structure for asking~~ questions in Dari ~~is very simple~~. ~~All you need to do is add~~ the ~~word 'ya'~~ at the ~~end~~ of the sentence. For example:		{\| class="wikitable"
			! Dari !! Pronunciation !! English
	* ''Shoma kojast?'' (Who are you?)		\|-
	* ''Che khabar hasti?~~'' (How are~~ you?)		\|آیا تو داری خوردن؟ \|\| āyā tō dārī khōrdan? \|\| Are you eating?
			\|-
	~~=== Yes~~/~~No Questions ===~~		\|آیا او کتاب می‌خواند؟ \|\| āyā ū kitāb mīxwānd? \|\| Is he/she reading a book?
			\|}
	~~Yes/no questions are also quite easy to form in Dari. To form a yes/no question, you just need to add the word 'ya' at the end of the sentence. For example:~~

	* ''Shoma dar Iran hastid?'' (Are you ~~in Iran?)~~		As you can see from the examples above, the word "آیا" (āyā) indicates that the statement is a question. This word can be translated as "is" or "are" depending on the context of the sentence.
	* ''Che khabar hasti?'' (~~Are you doing well?~~)

	==~~= Wh-~~Questions ===		== Forming Information Questions ==
			Information questions in Dari require the use of question words. These words are placed at the beginning of a sentence, and the verb follows the subject. Here are some question words you can use to form information questions:
			{\| class="wikitable"
			! Dari !! Pronunciation !! English
			\|-
			\|چرا؟ \|\| chera? \|\| Why?
			\|-
			\|چگونه؟ \|\| chēgunē? \|\| How?
			\|-
			\|کی؟ \|\| kī? \|\| When?
			\|-
			\|من چه؟ \|\| man chē? \|\| What? (general)
			\|-
			\|چند؟ \|\| chand? \|\| How many?
			\|-
			\|کجا؟ \|\| kojā? \|\| Where?
			\|-
			\|کدام؟ \|\| kodām? \|\| Which?
			\|}

	~~Wh-questions are a bit more complicated than yes/no questions~~. ~~To form~~ a ~~wh-question, you need to use the appropriate wh-word at the beginning of the sentence, followed by the verb~~. ~~For example:~~		For example:
			* Person 1: تو چه کار می‌کنی؟ (tō chē kār mīkunī?) (What do you do?)
			* Person 2: من دانشجو هستم. (man dāneshjū hastam.) (I am a student.)

	* ''Che kojast?'' (Who are you?)		== Dialogue ==
	* ''Che khabar hasti?'' (What is your news?)

	~~=== Tag Questions ===~~		* Person 1: آیا تو به مهمانی برای فردا می‌ری؟ (āyā tō bé mehmani barāyé fardā mīrī?) (Are you going to the party tomorrow?)
			* Person 2: من نمی‌دانم، چرا؟ (man nēmidānam, chera?) (I don't know, why?)
			* Person 1: چون من فکر می‌کنم که تو یکی از دعوت شدگان هستی. (chon man fēkr mīkunam kē tō yékī az da'wat shudgān hastī.) (Because I think you are one of the invited guests.)
			* Person 2: بله، درست است. (balē, dorost ast.) (Yes, that's right.)

	~~Tag~~ questions ~~are used to confirm something that you think is true~~. ~~To form a tag question~~, you ~~need~~ to use the ~~appropriate wh-~~word ~~at the beginning of the sentence~~, ~~followed by the verb and the word 'ya'~~. ~~For example~~:		== Possessive Questions ==
			In Dari, possessive questions can't be formed by adding "-ing" as in English. Instead, you have to use the question word "کی" (kī), meaning "whose." Here are some examples:
			{\| class="wikitable"
			! Dari !! Pronunciation !! English
			\|-
			\| کی این کتاب است؟ \|\| kī īn kitāb ast? \|\| Whose book is this?
			\|-
			\| آیا موبایل تو است؟ \|\| āyā moubāyl tō ast? \|\| Is this your phone?
			\|}

	* ''Shoma dar Iran hastid ya?'' (You are in Iran, ~~right?)~~		As you can see from the examples above, "کی" (kī) can be used to ask about possession.
	* ''Che khabar hasti ya?'' (~~You are doing well, right?~~)

	== Conclusion ==		== Conclusion ==

	~~Asking~~ questions in Dari ~~is not as difficult as it may seem~~. ~~With a little practice, you~~'~~ll be able~~ to ask questions ~~with ease~~. ~~Just remember to use the word 'ya' at the end of the sentence~~, ~~and you'll be good to go~~!
