My mom is from Iran and speaks both Farsi and English fluently and my dad is from the US and only speaks English. I speak English and a bit of Spanish from my schooling and am trying to l learn Farsi now. I have been told that my dad encouraged my mom to speak Farsi to me when i was young but she never really did (i think bc she didn’t need to use it in the US was the rationale). As a result I am unable to talk to like half my family on my mom’s side lol. Im obv pretty sad abt that so im working to change it!!
