Questions & Answers about از خط تولید اول تا خط سوم، همهی کارگران سرپا هستند.
Does az ... tâ ... here refer to physical space or a sequence?
It defines a physical space or range. az means from and tâ means to. You can use this exact same az ... tâ ... structure for time (like from Saturday to Monday) and numbers (like from one to ten).
Why does the sentence say khat-e sevom (third line) instead of repeating tolid (production)?
Just like in English, Farsi often drops repeated words to sound more natural. The listener already knows we are talking about production lines, so saying khat-e tolid-e sevom is not necessary. khat-e sevom is perfectly clear.
What does sar-e-pa literally mean?
It literally translates to head (sar) and foot (pa). Idiomatically, it means standing or on one's feet. You will often hear it used when someone is tired from standing all day.
Why use the -an suffix in kargaran instead of the usual -ha for plurals?
The -an suffix is used to make plural nouns for living things (animates), especially people. kargar means worker, so kargaran means workers. While you could say kargar-ha, using -an is a bit more formal and very common in written Farsi.
Why is there a -ye on the word hame?
This is the Ezafe connector linking hame (all) to kargaran (workers), creating the meaning all of the workers. Because the word hame ends in a silent h that sounds like an e, we must add a y sound to bridge the gap, making it hame-ye.
