Questions & Answers about جایی که ما دورهمی داشتیم خیلی خاطرهانگیز است.
Why does jâyi have an -i at the end instead of just being jâ?
The -i is a restrictive suffix. When you want to describe a specific noun using a relative clause starting with ke (that/which/where), you add this -i to the noun. Here, jâyi ke links the place to the specific event, acting as 'the place where'.
How does the word dorehami translate to 'gathering'?
It is a compound word made from dour (around) and ham (each other), plus the noun-forming suffix -i. So it literally means the act of being 'around each other,' which perfectly describes a casual get-together.
What are the parts of the word khâtere-angiz (memorable)?
It is formed by combining khâtere (memory) and angiz, which is the present stem of a verb meaning 'to provoke' or 'to stir up'. Literally, the word means 'memory-provoking'.
Why does the sentence use the past tense dâshtim (we had) but end with the present tense ast (is)?
The sentence has two different timeframes. The relative clause mâ dorehami dâshtim refers to a completed past event. The main clause describes the state of the place right now, so it ends with the present tense ast.
