Questions & Answers about به نظر میرسه که بچهها از این بازی پیچیده راضی هستن.
Why do we use the indicative هستن here instead of the subjunctive?
The phrase به نظر میرسه که (it seems that) can trigger either the indicative or the subjunctive. Using the indicative هستن means the speaker is stating what they observe as a likely fact—they are fairly certain the kids are satisfied. If the speaker felt more doubt, they would use the subjunctive باشن.
Why does the sentence use میرسه and هستن instead of میرسد and هستند?
This sentence reflects everyday spoken Farsi. In conversation, the final د in third-person singular verbs like میرسد is dropped, turning it into میرسه. Similarly, the third-person plural ending ند often drops the د, making هستند sound like هستن.
Why is از used here when the English translation says "satisfied with"?
In Farsi, the adjective راضی (satisfied) takes the preposition از (from). While English speakers say they are satisfied with something, Farsi speakers literally express that they are satisfied from it. You will see از used often with adjectives describing feelings or mental states.
How is این بازی پیچیده pronounced, and where is the ezafe?
It is pronounced in bazi-ye pichide. There is no ezafe after این (this), but you must use an ezafe to connect the noun بازی (game) to its adjective پیچیده (complicated). Because بازی ends in a vowel, the ezafe takes the form of a -ye sound.
