A man and woman standing in front of a window and wall thermometer.

“ڕۆژه‌کان ده‌ست ده‌که‌ن به‌ سارد بوون. پله‌ی گه‌رمی چه‌نده‌؟”

“The days are starting to get cold. What is the temperature?”


A woman pointing to a wall thermometer standing next to a man.

“نۆ پله‌یە. هێشتا پایزه‌، به‌ڵام به‌م زووانه‌ ده‌بێته‌ زستان.”

“It’s nine degrees. It’s still autumn, but soon it will be winter.”


A man thinking about sunbathing.

“من چاوه‌ڕوانی به‌هارم، به‌ڵام هاوین لام په‌سه‌ندتره‌، کاتێک گه‌رم و خۆشه‌.”

“I’m looking forward to spring, but I prefer summer, when it’s nice and warm.”


A woman pointing to the clouds through a window and standing next to a man.

“من گوێ ناده‌مه‌ سه‌رما. ئه‌وه‌ باران و بایه‌که‌یه‌ که‌ من حه‌زم لێ نیه‌.”

“I don’t mind the cold. It’s the rain and wind I don’t like.”


An unhappy man looking through a window at the clouds.

“سه‌یری ئه‌و هه‌وره‌ ڕه‌شانه‌ بکه‌. به‌یانی باران ده‌بارێ. هه‌روه‌ها زۆریش بای دێت. له‌وانه‌یه‌ ببێته‌ زریان.”

“Look at those dark clouds. Tomorrow it will rain. It will be very windy too. Perhaps there will be a storm.”


A man standing in a house looking through the window at the stormy weather.

“هیوادارم وانه‌بێ. به‌ڕاستی حه‌زم له‌ که‌شی خراپ نیه‌، به‌تایبه‌تی گه‌واره‌ و هەورەبرووسکە. ده‌ترسم که‌ بروسکه‌که‌ له‌ من بدات.”

“I hope not. I really don’t like bad weather, especially thunder and lightning. I’m afraid the lightning might strike me.”
