Questions & Answers about تخمین زدم که حدود سی بلیت فروش رفت.
Why is there an "e" sound connecting حدود and سی?
The word حدود (meaning about or approximately) requires the Ezafe connector to link it to the number that follows. You pronounce it as hodud-e si. This is the standard rule when using حدود for approximations.
Why is بلیت in the singular form when the English translation says thirty tickets?
In Farsi, nouns that come directly after numbers are always kept singular. So instead of using a plural suffix, you literally say thirty ticket (سی بلیت).
The translation says "were sold", but what does فروش رفت literally mean?
The compound verb فروش رفتن literally means to go to sale. It acts as an intransitive verb and is the most natural way to say something was sold or sold out in Farsi.
If thirty tickets were sold, why is the verb رفت in the singular form?
In Farsi, when the subject of a sentence is an inanimate object (like tickets, rather than people), the verb is usually singular. Even though there are thirty tickets, the verb stays in the third-person singular form (فروش رفت).
