Question 1

How is the word vazân formed in this sentence?

Accepted Answer

It is a present participle acting as an adjective. It is made from the verb vazidan (to blow). You take the present stem vaz and add the suffix -ân. This suffix is used to show a continuous state or manner, so here it tells us the wind is in a state of blowing.

Question 2

How do the adjectives connect to the word bâd (wind) here?

Accepted Answer

They are connected using the Ezafe (an unwritten e sound). The phrase is spoken as bâd-e vazân-e sard. The present participle vazân acts exactly like a regular adjective in this chain, creating the literal structure wind-e blowing-e cold.

Question 3

Does it matter if I write bâd-e vazân-e sard instead of bâd-e sard-e vazân?

Accepted Answer

Not really. When a noun has multiple adjectives, the order is quite flexible in Farsi. Usually, the more defining or important characteristic comes closer to the noun, but both combinations sound natural and mean the same thing.

Question 4

Why is the object marker râ placed after bâz instead of right after panjare (window)?

Accepted Answer

The word râ must always be placed at the very end of the specific noun phrase it points to. Because the complete direct object is the open window (panjare-ye bâz), the râ must follow the adjective bâz rather than interrupting the phrase.

Question 5

I learned that bâz means again. Why is it translated as open here?

Accepted Answer

The word bâz has two very common meanings in Farsi depending on its role. As an adverb it means again or back, but as an adjective it means open. Because it is connected to the noun panjare (window) with an Ezafe, it is clearly functioning as an adjective here.
