Questions & Answers about این لباس‌ها برای بی‌خانمان‌ها است و ما برایشان غذا هم آوردیم.

How is barâyeshân formed in this sentence?
It means "for them" and is made of the preposition barâ (for) plus the enclitic -eshân (them). Because barâ ends in a vowel, Farsi adds the glide consonant -y- in between to make it smoother to pronounce, creating barâyeshân.
What is the literal breakdown of the word bi-khânemân-hâ?
The prefix bi- means "without", and khânemân means "home" or "household". Together they form the adjective for "homeless". Adding the plural suffix -hâ turns it into the noun "homeless people".
lebâs-hâ (clothes) is plural. Why does the sentence use the singular verb ast?
In Farsi, inanimate plural subjects like lebâs-hâ (clothes) almost always take a singular verb. So, even though it translates to "These clothes are", the grammar treats it as a singular entity.
Why is ham placed right after ghazâ instead of at the end of the sentence?
The word ham (too/also) usually comes immediately after the word it emphasizes. Here, it emphasizes the addition of food: we brought clothes, and we brought ghazâ (food) too.
