Questions & Answers about کلاس ترم اول شلوغ است.
How is the phrase for first semester formed here?
In Farsi, ordinal numbers can be placed after the noun they describe. When you do this, you connect them using an Ezafe sound. Here, term (semester) connects to avval (first) with a spoken Ezafe, becoming term-e avval.
The lesson focuses on ordinal numbers ending in -om. Why doesn't avval have that ending?
The word avval is a special exception! While most ordinal numbers take the -om suffix (like dovvom for second), the word for first is almost always avval. You will see the regular -om pattern used for first only in larger numbers, like twenty-first (bist o yekom).
How does the grammar work to say first semester class all together?
This sentence uses a chain of two Ezafes. The first Ezafe links kelās to term, and the second Ezafe links term to avval. If you break it down literally, kelās-e term-e avval means class of semester of first.
Does the word sholugh only apply to crowded rooms?
No, sholugh is a very useful word that means both crowded and busy. You can use it to describe a crowded street or restaurant, but you can also use it to say that your day or schedule is very busy.
