Questions & Answers about بچهها تو کابینا همدیگر رو بغل میکنن.
How is the reciprocal pronoun همدیگر (each other) functioning in this sentence?
It is acting as the direct object of the verb بغل کردن (to hug). Because the children are hugging each other, "each other" receives the action. That is why it is immediately followed by رو, the spoken form of the direct object marker را.
Could I use یکدیگر instead of همدیگر here?
Grammatically, yes, because both mean "each other." However, یکدیگر is a formal, written word. Since the rest of this sentence is highly colloquial, the everyday همدیگر is a much better fit for the tone.
Why is the word for cabins written as کابینا instead of کابینها?
This reflects natural spoken Farsi. The standard plural suffix is ـها (-ha). In casual speech, the "h" often drops, turning کابینها (kabin-ha) into کابینا (kabina). Similarly, the sentence uses the spoken تو instead of the formal در for "in."
Why does the verb بغل میکنن not end with a "d"?
The formal present tense is بغل میکنند (they hug). In spoken Farsi, the final "d" sound in the third-person plural ending ـند is almost always dropped, leaving just ـن (-an).
