Questions & Answers about ما میخواهیم یکی از پرطرفدارترین کویرهای ایران را ببینیم.
How is the "one of the..." structure formed in this sentence?
The structure uses یکی از (one of) followed by the superlative adjective پرطرفدارترین (most popular), and then the plural noun کویرهای (deserts). Notice that unlike regular adjectives in Farsi, superlative adjectives ending in ترین come before the noun they describe.
Break down the word پرطرفدارترین. How does it mean "most popular"?
It is a combination of three parts: پر (full of), طرفدار (fan or supporter), and the superlative suffix ترین (most). Literally, it translates to the most full of supporters!
Why doesn't the superlative adjective پرطرفدارترین take an ezafe to connect it to کویرهای?
Because superlative adjectives ending in ترین precede the noun and do not require an ezafe to link them to it. You just say پرطرفدارترین کویرهای without adding an "e" sound in between. However, there is an ezafe after the noun to link it to Iran: کویرهایِ ایران.
Why does the object marker را come after ایران instead of earlier in the sentence?
The word را marks the entire specific direct object of the sentence. Since the whole phrase یکی از پرطرفدارترین کویرهای ایران (one of the most popular deserts of Iran) acts as the thing you want to see, را is placed at the very end of that entire noun phrase.
