However, your speech may sound formal or bookish because everyday spoken Persian differs significantly from written Persian in vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure. Just as English speakers often say “I'm gonna” instead of “I am going to,” Persian speakers use many conversational forms that differ from written Persian. Without familiarity with these spoken forms, you also have difficulty understanding native speakers in everyday conversations..
