Questions & Answers about آن ورزشکار بااراده خیلی باملاحظه است.
How does the prefix bâ- change the meaning of erâdeh in this sentence?
Erâdeh is a noun meaning "will," "determination," or "willpower." By adding the prefix bâ- (which means "with"), we form the adjective bâ-erâdeh, which literally means "with willpower." In English, this translates naturally as "strong-willed" or "determined."
What is the base word inside bâ-molâhezeh (considerate)?
The base noun is molâhezeh, which means "consideration," "observation," or "tact." Adding the bâ- prefix turns it into an adjective meaning "with consideration," which we translate as "considerate."
How would I form the exact opposite of these two adjectives using this lesson's grammar?
You simply replace the bâ- (with) prefix with the bi- (without) prefix. Bi-erâdeh means "weak-willed" or "lacking determination," and bi-molâhezeh means "inconsiderate" or "thoughtless."
Is there an ezafe (linking vowel) between varzeshkâr and bâ-erâdeh?
Yes, you must pronounce an ezafe connecting the noun to its adjective: varzeshkâr-e bâ-erâdeh. Because the word varzeshkâr ends in a consonant, this short "e" sound is not written out in the Persian script, but it is grammatically required and you will hear it when native speakers read the sentence.
How is the noun varzeshkâr (athlete) constructed?
It is formed by combining the noun varzesh (sport or exercise) with the occupational suffix -kâr (doer or professional). Therefore, a varzeshkâr is literally a "doer of sports." This is a very common way to build words for professions in Farsi.
