Questions & Answers about او با زنی ازدواج کرده است که مهربان و جذاب است.
Why does zan (woman) have an -i at the end to make zani?
The suffix -i usually means "a" or "an", but here it is working together with ke (who/that) to introduce a description. When you want to say "a woman who...", you add -i to the noun. It signals to the listener that a relative clause is coming to describe that person.
Does ke in this sentence mean "who" or "that"?
ke is a very flexible connecting word. In Farsi, we use ke for "who", "whom", "which", and "that" when adding a descriptive clause. Because it refers to zani (a woman) in this sentence, it translates to "who", but the Farsi word remains exactly the same regardless of whether you are describing a person or an object.
Why is the word ba (with) used before zani?
In English, you "marry someone", but in Farsi, you "marry with someone". The compound verb ezdevaj kardan (to marry) always needs the preposition ba (with) to introduce the person being married.
What tense is ezdevaj karde ast?
It is the Present Perfect tense, translating to "has married". It is built with the past participle of the verb (karde) plus the present tense of "to be" for he/she (ast). It is used here because the marriage happened in the past but the state of being married continues into the present.
