Homework:

How many Persian slangs have you learned by now? Name at least 10 of them and explain when they can be used.

P.S. After the above homework, please take a look at Useful Drills 132. Dear Anita has translated the previous homework (a letter to a doctor!) into Persian. Although it could be edited in different sentences, I decided to post it ‘as is’. It is a nice work and you may work on it to improve her job, if you wish.
