A job is ููุธููููุฉ. To say what someone does, name the job: ูููู ู ูุญูุงุณูุจ. Most job words add ููุฉ for a woman: ู ูุญูุงุณูุจ becomes ู ูุญูุงุณูุจูุฉ, and ุทูุจููุจ becomes ุทูุจููุจูุฉ. To say where someone works, use ููุนูู ูู ููู and the place: ูููู ุชูุนูู ูู ููู ู ูุณูุชูุดูููู. To ask, say ุฃูููู ุชูุนูู ููุ In the past use ููุงูู, and the job takes the ending -an: ููุงูู ุฃูุจูู ู ูููุธููููุง. For a woman the word already ends in ููุฉ, so nothing is added: ููุงููุชู ุฃูู ููู ู ูู ูุฑููุถูุฉ.
Ask three people in your family or among your friends ุฃูููู ุชูุนูู ููุ and write their answers: the job (man or woman) and the place. Then write one sentence about a grandparent with ููุงูู.
