Replace Arabic loanwords with real Kurdish Kurmanji Words, the way your grandparents spoke it.
Bersiv teaches you authentic Kurmanji Kurdish by replacing Arabic loanwords with their authentic Kurdish equivalents, the way the language was spoken before centuries of influence changed it.
• Every lesson follows a simple two-step mechanic:
• Identify the Arabic loanword hiding in a Kurdish sentence
