    That Persian accent calmed me down. My pediatrician immigrated from Persian saw my older sibling for a decade then I was born and she took care of my eyes and my spine and my heart and my severe mental health problems I had when I was a small child. She was my doctor for as long as I can remember. There’s so much love in Iranians, i love how little everything we know about preventing health issues and everything mattered in comparison to the age old adages and common sense from a woman who lived through just about everything. Wonderful people

Also if your a persian you are either really smart or really dumb, no in between.

      Not all Iranians are Persian. Some Iranians are Turks, some Balooch, Gilak, Kord, Lor, Ashury, Armani, Jewish, Persian, and hundreds other ethnicities. I tell my friends the term " Iranian " applies to citizenship, it's your nationality; but being Persian is referring to your ancestral background, people your parents desended from.

    • @donareynolds9273
      @donareynolds9273 6 месяцев назад

      It is not simple. I'm sure it is a very common concept in other old countries like China and Russia too. People traveled to other countries more than it is recorded the history books, by choice or by force (war, famin, drought, etc.)They took up the new adapted countries "Citizenship " ; kind of like modern times when people immigrant to other countries like U.S., Australia, Canada, etc.So, if you are an Ashury (Assyrian) and were born in Iran, technically you are not Persian , but you are Iranian by your citizenship. When you immigrate to another country you have a hyphenated citizenship like Iranian-Canadian, etc. As you might have guessed by now, most of the time I confuse my friends more by over explaining 😂

    The accent you put on reminded me so much of one of my old teachers. He taught me, secondhand, to never gamble with a Persian. They don't cheat, that's not what I'm getting at. It's that, when money is on the line, whoever wants it more WILL win. The one with the strongest will is the victor.
    Two of my teachers were under a gazebo playing backgammon, and, despite having lost multiple times in a row, the one decided to bet on the next game, maybe believing that increasing the stakes would help him. They had $20 on the game between them, and the Persian teacher is just dominating the game with zero semblance of sportsmanship. Like he called out doubles before his roll, rolled two sixes, and then jumped onto the table, turned around, and shook his butt in the face of his opponent, chanting in a singsong voice, "Doubles, doubles, I got doubles!"
    The other teacher, completely heartbroken and well over half the game behind, lets out this cry of desperation, "Doubles, gimme doubles." He rolls two ones.
    The Persian teacher just bursts out laughing at him, "Well, you got your doubles! Enjoy your four spaces!"
    It was over for him at that point. Two turns later and he had completely lost, only getting one piece to the end before it was done. I had never seen such raw, comedic timing in my life.
    I will say that every Iranian I have ever met has had the most wonderful sense of humor. Another of my Persian teachers was trying to tell a joke to the class and almost couldn't finish it because he was just cracking up the entire time. To him, it was the funniest thing known to mankind, and was just a joke about two farmers competing over an outhouse along the highway. It didn't work all that well in English, but, to him, it was comedy gold. Another of my teachers asked around the room if anyone spoke any foreign languages. You got the usual Spanish, German, French, Latin, "no, I'm an American and foreign language education is terrible here," but one guy says, "I can speak dolphin."
    "Dolphin? Like the... Flipper?"
    "Yep, just like Flipper."
    "Okay, what is his name in Dolphin?"
    "(Believable dolphin noises)"
    And she just goes around the room, pointing at a student, and asking him what their name is in dolphin. Eventually, she gets to a student and he just makes this short, nasal sound. It tips her over the edge and she's thrown herself over her desk, absolutely cackling. Suddenly, she excuses herself and leaves, still laughing her way down the hall, and returns a few moments later. She had nearly peed herself laughing.
    Most of my teachers were very funny, not just the Iranian ones. Had an Armenian teacher who was asked, "How are you always so peppy and awake, even early in the morning."
    He just gives a big smile, puts two thumbs up, and confidently says, "Red Bull!" Puts his hands down then rubs the top of his head and continues, "Although, that may also explain where my hair went, as well." I tried to "prank" him one day, as we had a guest teacher from Tajikistan who was teaching us how to read Tajik, which is just Farsi with the Cyrillic alphabet. So, I copied a headline down we had read and wrote it on the board as best I could. Next period, he walks in, takes one look at it, and says, "That's wrong," and then corrects it.
    I say, "Wait, how can you read that?"
    He just gestures wide with his hands and says, "I am Armenian."
    "Oh, right. Completely forgot about it being a former Soviet satellite state. Of course you can read Cyrillic." Felt like a bit of a fool to have that completely backfire on me.
    I'm pretty sure one of my teachers was a vampire, though. Jokingly, of course, but we never saw him out in the sun, his voice felt far older than he appeared, he commonly would tent his fingers when he spoke like some villain, if we were out and about, no one would ever see him walk up. He'd just... Be there out of the blue, like he teleported in.
    Another of my teachers, though, completely betrayed his appearance and made 14 men in their physical prime look like mere children. We were playing soccer (yes, it's football, I know), and he walks up. Now, this teacher is about 5'3", big ol beer belly he constantly uses as a place to rest his hands, has a doctorate in veterinary medicine, and he's pushing 60 years old, at least. He just slowly walks up to us and asks if he can play. Everyone agrees and he says, "Okay, so all of you guys (pointing to who are supposed to be his teammates), go join that team."
    My buddy says, "Wait, you think you're gonna be able to keep up with us all on your own?"
    He stands proud and exclaims, "This is my game."
    Me, in the goal, I ask him, "So, do you want me to go over there, too, or should I stay here?"
    "Eh, do whatever you want. If you wanna take it easy, stay there." So, I stayed in the goal and merely watched.
    I had never seen such mastery before and likely never will again. He pushed through a dozen guys in their early 20's like they weren't even there. They had TWO goalies after a certain point and it didn't matter to him at all. I didn't even have to move a muscle, eventually leaving the goal entirely and watching from the sidelines. I don't even remember the score by the end, but my buddy, completely out of breath, asks, "How in the hell did you do that?"
    "I told you: this is my game. You will never beat me, no matter how hard you try, because this. Is. My. Game." He was like a god of soccer, and I've played since I was 5. I'd played for 17 years at that point and knew there was nothing I could've done. I could barely follow his movements with the level of unexpected agility he possessed. He always called me "مک رایان," or "Mac Raayan." I didn't get it at first until he explained, "Well, your Farsi name is Raayan."
    "Yeah, I gathered that much. I know my name."
    "And what is the word for computer?"
    Still confused, I respond, "رایانه؟" So, the name Raayan means thinker (yes, I see the irony here), and adding that letter at the end tends to imply a smaller version of that thing, so رایانه would be, more literally, "little thinker," AKA a computer.
    "What kind of computer do you have?"
    "An Apple?"
    He rubs the bridge of his nose, "And what is another name for that?"
    "A Ma- OH, I get it!"
    "Yeah, yeah! Mac Raayan!"

    To those saying using the term Persian is wrong are themselves wrong. As i mentioned in an earlier comment, the country was previously known as Persia making it a nationality as well as an ethnic group. On the day of the Persian new year in 1935, Reza Shah Pahlavi, requested foreign delegates to use the term Iran, instead of Persia, in a conscious reference to the ancient ancestry of the Iranians. Incidentally, Iran means Land of the Aryans.

    One additional confusing aspect of this is that Persian, in the context of this video, is a nationality as Iran was formally known as Persia. It is however also an ethnic group and one of many in Iran. For those Iranians born after the time when the name of the country officially changed, many don't describe themselves as Persian because this wasnt their ethnic group neither did they feel it was their nationality anymore. Many do however. My husband for example is a funny one. When he first introduced himself to me he said he was from Persia. Whether as a cheat code or trying to impress me im not sure lol. But me, knowing my history, was aware they were the same country. Now 20 years later he says he's not Persian as this isnt his ethnic group so i reminded him that it was also his nationality as that was formerly the name of the county.
