About Behzad
Expertise
I can answer questions about the usage and meaning of Persian words, proverbs, and idioms asked in Persian or English. Controversial grammatical issues are beyond my knowledge. In addition, I cannot corroborate my answer to a question about newly coined slang words. PLEASE do not ask me to translate more than 1 or 2 sentences.

Experience
Persian language is my mother tongue; however, my knowledge is remarkably more than a mere native speaker.

Education/Credentials
BSc In Mechanical Eng.

Many thanks, nice to be in touch again,

PS I lost my old email to a phishing scam, so please only use my yahoo email address if you wish to contact me.

Answer
Hello,
I hope you are fine.
1.   I haven’t seen him for two months.
دو ماه است که او را ندیده ام.

2.   I haven’t seen him since Saturday.
