  • The Evaluation of the Cultural Transmission Through Course Books Teaching Turkish & Persian As a Foreign Language
    Karadeniz Uluslararası Bilimsel Dergi Volume: 49, Spring-2021, p. (154-164) ISSN: 1308-6200 DOI Number: https://doi.org/10.17498/kdeniz.881469 Research Article Received: February 16, 2021 | Accepted: March 7, 2021 This article was checked by turnitin.

Moreover, it is revealed that learning the grammatical structures and vocabularies are not sufficient to obtain proficiency in the language. Foreign language learning is a complex process involving not only the linguistic content but also the cultural norms of the target language. The inseparable relationship between culture and language divulges that mastering a language is impossible without learning the culture of that language. Consequently, the course books used for teaching a foreign language should promote communication abilities of learners via increasing the students’ cultural awareness. This study aimed to evaluate “cultural transmission through teaching Turkish as a foreign language course books” versus teaching Persian as a foreign language. The evaluation of the “Learning Persian” book series and “Hitit course book 2” from the viewpoint of the cultural transmission divulged that both consist of factors that present Turkish and Persian cultures and succeed in transmitting their culture to learners. The subjects of course books represent the reality about the target culture. They are chosen from the authentic texts and basic real-life experience areas.

  • „Wer Sich Selbst Und Andre Kenne, Wird Auch Hier Erkennen: Orient Und Okzident Sind Nicht Mehr Zu Trennen
    „Wer sich selbst und andre kenne, wird auch hier erkennen: Orient und Okzident sind nicht mehr zu trennen. Sinnig zwischen beiden Welten sich zu wiegen, lass ich gelten; also zwischen Ost und Westen sich bewegen, sei‘s zum besten.“ (Zitat aus dem West-östlichen Divan von J.W. v. Goethe) Liebe Gäste, herzlich Willkommen in unserem Restaurant Saray. Saray ist ein altpersisches Wort und bedeutet soviel wie „das Heim“ oder „das Haus“ und ist somit ein Ort an dem man sich wohlfühlen soll. Auch wir wünschen uns, dass Sie sich bei uns wohlfühlen, unsere Speisen und Getränke genießen, sich zurücklehnen und eine Auszeit vom Alltag nehmen. Dafür werden wir unser Möglichstes tun. Wir servieren Ihnen in unserem Restaurant hauptsächlich persische Gerichte, sowie einige arabisch oder indisch beeinflusste Spezialitäten, die im Südiran geläufig sind. Alle Speisen werden frisch von uns zubereitet und sind frei von künstlichen Geschmacksverstärkern, Konservierungsstoffen, Süßungsstoffen oder anderen Zusatzstoffen. Kennen Sie die persische Küche? Wenn nicht, dann wollen wir Sie ein wenig darüber informieren. Persische Kochkunst war schon im Mittelalter weit über geographische Grenzen in Europa bekannt und wurde oft als die französische Küche des Orients bezeichnet. Ihre Gerichte werden schonend zubereitet und sparsam gewürzt. Verglichen mit anderen orientalischen Ländern kocht man im Iran mild, wobei immer der Eigengeschmack der Zutaten hervorgehoben wird. Zur vollen Entfaltung des Aromas bedarf es Zeit und so sind Schmorgerichte besonders beliebt. Vielen Gerichten eigen ist eine süßsaure Geschmacksrichtung, wenn z.B. Trockenfrüchte wie Pflaumen oder Limetten in Fleischgerichten mitgekocht werden. Probieren Sie ein solches Gericht einmal, Sie werden überrascht sein. Gerne beraten wir Sie bei der Auswahl Ihrer Gerichte.

  • Middle Eastern Cuisine
    MIDDLE EASTERN CUISINE The term Middle Eastern cuisine refers to the various cuisines of the Middle East. Despite their similarities, there are considerable differences in climate and culture, so that the term is not particularly useful. Commonly used ingredients include pitas, honey, sesame seeds, sumac, chickpeas, mint and parsley. The Middle Eastern cuisines include: Arab cuisine Armenian cuisine Cuisine of Azerbaijan Assyrian cuisine Cypriot cuisine Egyptian cuisine Israeli cuisine Iraqi cuisine Iranian (Persian) cuisine Lebanese cuisine Palestinian cuisine Somali cuisine Syrian cuisine Turkish cuisine Yemeni cuisine ARAB CUISINE Arab cuisine is defined as the various regional cuisines spanning the Arab World from Iraq to Morocco to Somalia to Yemen, and incorporating Levantine, Egyptian and others. It has also been influenced to a degree by the cuisines of Turkey, Pakistan, Iran, India, the Berbers and other cultures of the peoples of the region before the cultural Arabization brought by genealogical Arabians during the Arabian Muslim conquests. HISTORY Originally, the Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula relied heavily on a diet of dates, wheat, barley, rice and meat, with little variety, with a heavy emphasis on yogurt products, such as labneh (yoghurt without butterfat). As the indigenous Semitic people of the peninsula wandered, so did their tastes and favored ingredients. There is a strong emphasis on the following items in Arabian cuisine: 1. Meat: lamb and chicken are the most used, beef and camel are also used to a lesser degree, other poultry is used in some regions, and, in coastal areas, fish. Pork is not commonly eaten--for Muslim Arabs, it is both a cultural taboo as well as being prohibited under Islamic law; many Christian Arabs also avoid pork as they have never acquired a taste for it.

  • Adult Cooking Classes August 2018
    ADULT COOKING CLASSES – AUGUST 2018 Feeling rather “strange” sitting here and trying to grasp for words to express the emotions arising from the realization that this is the last cooking class schedule I’ll ever be sending out on behalf of Fuel for the Soul. And as a lot of you well know, I’m not usually at a loss for words or searching for how to express myself. This situation brings to mind the lyrics from one of Willie Nelson’s songs (The Party’s Over ): Turn out the lights The party's over They say that all Good things must end Call it a night The party's over……… The finality of issuing the August 2018 Cooking Class Schedule is truly bittersweet. While I’m so ready to retire and take on our next adventure in life (who doesn’t want to travel the world!), thinking about the end of classes is truly sad. Not the part of all the behind the scenes business/marketing/financial/computer “stuff”, but the joy of sharing evenings with our clients. From newbies to longtime regulars, the pleasure of breaking bread in class has been nothing but rewarding. Our lives have been so enriched by the variety of folks coming thru our front door over these past 8 years. We’ve made many dear lifelong friends and some folks have become like members of the family. So to all, our most heartfelt thanks! Realizing most people will probably skip this verbiage, in an effort to “cut to the chase” and secure one final reservation for class, just want to throw out a couple of housekeeping notes.

Milton’s French Immersion students start learning French in first grade. After studying the language for 6 or 7 years, most of them walk into our French classroom with a “been there, done that” attitude. Yet, at age 11 they are still looking forward to a fun year. During my short talk, I explain that I had to learn French much like they are now. That outside the classroom, I spoke another language with my friends, and at home with my parents. Judging from past experience, I know that when I get to this part, I have to quickly get to my conclusion that learning another language is tough but possible: as soon as they find out that I was born and raised in Iran, I see a new spark in their eyes. “Wow!” they say, “Would you tell us about your country?” This unit is created as an answer to their call.
