I can review the whole module: say what I eat and drink, whom I call and whom I'm waiting for, buy groceries and order at a café, and give a price, a time, and a day.

What we review
You've finished the module on food, shopping, and time. Here are the main points.
• What I eat and drink: a thing in general has no article; a particular one takes the article -ը / -ն.
• To whom: -ին, after -ա -յին; a word with -ս, -դ takes the “whose” form (տատիկիս), with no -ին.
• Whom and what: a person takes the “to whom” form, a thing has no -ին; after սպասել, a thing takes -ին too.
• The three forms of each pronoun are in the first table, for example ես — իմ — ինձ.
• Shopping: Ի՞նչ արժե; a number + հարյուր, հազար; Ինձ … է պետք, պետք չէ.
• At a café: the -ի form + հետ, համար; առանց + the -ի form; ինձ հետ, but նրա հետ; “with” an ingredient is -ով.
• Time: the number with -ն + է for what time it is; the number with -ին for at what time; … անց կես for half past; the day + օրը; the -ից form + հետո, առաջ.
• The question words are in the second table.
Now you can buy food at the market, order at a café, and agree on a day and a time.

For “they”, the second and third forms are the same: նրանց.
