Azad came to my house yesterday. He brought a gift.
He came to my house yesterday. He brought this.
Personal pronouns (such as “he”) and demonstrative pronouns (such as “this”) often take the place of nouns (such as “Azad”) in our sentences when we speak English.
The same is true in Kurdish. Sometimes in Kurdish, you don’t even need to use a personal pronoun in the sentence!
There are two “cases” in Kurmanji: “direct” and “oblique”. In this lesson we’ll study the “direct” case. In Lesson 2 we’ll study the “oblique” case.
