Practice: Counting & the Counter 'Taa'

Practice: Counting

Number + taa + singular noun. Keep the noun singular every time.

Counting people

nafar is the person-specific counter: dah nafar daaneshjoo (ten students). The counter can be omitted: dah daaneshjoo. In informal speech, taa is also used with people: dah taa daaneshjoo. Use nafar as the model when explicitly practising the counter for people; do not mark the other forms wrong in an unrestricted translation.
