Questions & Answers about تازه یک عتیقهفروشیای پیدا کردهام.
Why does the sentence use both yek and the suffix -i on atiqe-forushi?
This is the double indefinite structure (yek + noun + -i). It is used to talk about a specific but unidentified thing. The speaker has a particular antique shop in mind (a certain antique shop), but hasn't named it to the listener yet. If they just said yek atiqe-forushi without the suffix, it could mean any random antique shop.
Why is the indefinite suffix written as ای instead of just ی at the end of atiqe-forushi?
The noun atiqe-forushi already ends in the vowel sound i. When we add the indefinite suffix -i to a word ending in a vowel, an extra glide sound is added to keep the vowels separate. In writing, this is usually represented by adding ای, making the pronunciation atiqe-forushi'i.
Doesn't tāze usually mean fresh? Why is it translated as just here?
You are right that tāze means fresh when describing food or objects. However, when used as an adverb of time, it means recently or just. It pairs perfectly with the present perfect verb peydā karde-am to mean I have just found.
How is the compound word atiqe-forushi built?
It is made of three parts: atiqe (antique), forush (the present stem of the verb to sell), and the suffix -i which turns it into a place or profession. Together, they literally mean antique-selling-place.
