More about Koja

Koja means where, and it starts every where question. Ahle koja? is from where, and Koja zendegi mikoni? is where do you live. It is also the base of three forms in the course: Kojayi (where are you), Kojayin (the polite one) and Kojast (where is he or she). It is taught in Module 2, lesson 1, in the lesson Where are you from?, which is also where Ahle koja-yi? first appears. Because it appears in so many question lines, it is one of the most useful words of the module, and it keeps coming back later.
