Questions & Answers about مکانیک تلاش میکنه، اما رانندهها گپ میزنن.
Why does the first verb end in -e instead of -ad?
The verb میکنه is the colloquial Tehrani pronunciation of میکند. In everyday spoken Farsi, the third-person singular ending -ad is usually shortened to -e.
How does the plural verb میزنن differ from its formal written form?
The formal written form is میزنند. In casual speech, the third-person plural ending -and drops the final d and becomes just -an.
What are the base infinitives for the verbs meaning tries and chat used here?
To try is تلاش کردن and to chat is گپ زدن. They are both compound verbs, meaning they combine a noun (تلاش for effort, گپ for chat) with a light verb (کردن to do, زدن to hit).
Is the word for driver (راننده) related to a verb?
Yes! The word راننده comes from the present stem of راندن (to drive), which is ران, plus the suffix -نده which turns a verb into a noun describing the person doing the action. It literally means the one who drives.
