- نهnenoOne syllable, said with a falling tone. The soft refusal is na, mersi — the same shrug as "no, thanks"
- خوبkhubwellOne syllable that answers half the small talk of the course. Khubam — I am well — is khub with the ending -am stuck on
- بدbadbadThree letters, the plain opposite of khub. On "how are you?" people rarely say it flat out — politeness answers bad nist, not bad
- عالیâligreatFrom a root meaning height and loftiness. As an answer it outbids khubam: everything is top-notch — food, views, mood
- خوبمkhubamI am wellLiterally "well-I": the link verb -am glues straight onto the word, no separate "am" needed. The full answer runs khubam, mamnun

- بایدbâyadmustObligation with no personal ending at all: bayad beram — [it is necessary that] I go. Whoever must, the verb ending says it
- باbawithThe companion preposition: cha ba shir — tea with milk. Before a word starting with a vowel it wears down to bo
- درdarin / atThe preposition of being inside: dar Tehran — in Tehran. It also opens the door, dar-e khane — the house door

How not to forget this word
Reading a word and remembering it are different jobs. A day later, little survives of a single reading — and that is not bad memory, that is how memory works.
