Questions & Answers about به نظر میرسد که ظرف استریل نبوده است، در نتیجه پنیر کهنه بوی بدی میدهد.
How does dar natije function here, and could I use banâbar-in instead?
dar natije literally means "in result" and links the cause (the unsterile container) to its direct effect (the bad smell). You can absolutely use banâbar-in (therefore) here instead without changing the overall meaning. dar natije just slightly emphasizes the direct, logical outcome.
Why is the verb nabude ast (present perfect) used here instead of the simple past nabud?
This highlights the "inferential" use of the present perfect tense in Farsi, which is very common. The speaker didn't actually see that the container was unsterile in the past; they are deducing or guessing that it "must not have been" sterile based on the current evidence (the bad-smelling cheese).
How exactly does the phrase be nazar mi-resad ke translate to "it seems that"?
It is an impersonal construction. nazar means "view" or "opinion", and mi-resad is the third-person singular of "to arrive". So literally, it means "it arrives to the view that..." This is the standard Farsi expression for introducing a deduction or saying "it seems that".
Why does the Farsi sentence use the verb midahad (gives) for smelling?
In Farsi, inanimate objects don't actively "smell." Instead, they "give a smell" (bu dâdan). Also, notice the indefinite -i suffix attached to the adjective bad (bu-ye badi). Literally, the phrase translates to "gives a bad smell."
