Questions & Answers about هیچکس به این پیشنهاد نامناسب بیتفاوت نیست.
The word نامناسب means "inappropriate". How is this word formed?
It uses the negative prefix نا (nâ-) attached to the adjective مناسب (monâseb), which means "appropriate" or "suitable". This prefix is one of the most common ways to create an opposite adjective in Farsi.
What does the root word in بیتفاوت (indifferent) mean?
The root is the noun تفاوت (tafâvot), meaning "difference". The prefix بی (bi-) means "without". So, بیتفاوت literally means "without difference". If a proposal makes no difference to you, you are indifferent to it!
Why does the sentence end with the negative verb نیست (is not) if هیچکس already means "no one"?
Farsi requires a double negative. Whenever you use a negative word like هیچکس (nobody) or هیچچیز (nothing) in a sentence, the main verb must also be negative. Literally, this sentence says "Nobody is not indifferent".
What links the feeling of indifference to the proposal in this sentence?
The preposition به (be). It comes right before این پیشنهاد (this proposal) to show what the people are reacting to. Luckily, this matches English perfectly: you are indifferent به (to) something.
