Questions & Answers about بنیانگذار شرکت اکثریت مالکیت را دارد.
This lesson is about fractions, so how does a word like aksariyat fit in?
The word aksariyat means 'majority.' While you are learning exact fractions using numbers, terms like aksariyat (majority) and aqaliyat (minority) are used to express general proportions. If you wanted to say 'more than half' using a fraction concept, you could say bish az nim (more than a half), but aksariyat is the standard noun for 'the majority'.
Where are the hidden 'ezafe' vowel links in this sentence?
There are two 'ezafe' connectors here, pronounced as '-e'. The first connects 'founder' to 'company': bonyān-gozār-e sherkat. The second connects 'majority' to 'ownership': aksariyat-e mālekiyat. It translates literally as 'founder-of company, majority-of ownership rā has'.
Why is the direct object marker rā placed after mālekiyat instead of aksariyat?
rā marks the definite direct object of the verb dārad (has). The object isn't just 'majority', it's the entire noun phrase 'majority of the ownership' (aksariyat-e mālekiyat). In Farsi, rā always attaches to the very end of the complete noun phrase, no matter how long it is.
How is the word bonyān-gozār (founder) formed?
It is a compound word. bonyān means 'foundation' or 'base', and gozār is the present stem of the verb gozāshtan (to put or place). So a bonyān-gozār is literally someone who 'places the foundation' — a founder.
What does the -iyat ending do in the words aksariyat and mālekiyat?
The suffix -iyat is borrowed from Arabic and is used in Farsi to create abstract nouns, much like '-ity', '-ness', or '-ship' in English. It turns aksar (most) into aksariyat (the majority), and mālek (owner) into mālekiyat (ownership).
