Questions & Answers about آن شرکت حامی یتیمها است و برایشان پول میفرستد.
How is the word برایشان formed in this sentence?
It combines the preposition برای (barâ, meaning 'for') and the pronoun enclitic ـشان (-eshân, meaning 'them'). Because the base word ends in the vowel 'â', we insert the glide consonant ی (-y-) before adding the enclitic to make it flow smoothly. This creates برایشان (barâ-y-eshân).
How do we pronounce the connection between حامی (hâmi) and یتیمها (yatim-hâ)?
They are connected by an Ezâfe, showing association ('sponsor OF orphans'). Because حامی ends in the vowel 'i', the Ezâfe is pronounced as a 'ye' sound but isn't written as an extra letter. You simply pronounce it as 'hâmi-ye yatim-hâ'.
Is حامی acting as a noun or an adjective here?
It acts as a noun here, meaning 'sponsor' or 'protector'. While it can sometimes function as an adjective (meaning 'supportive'), in this sentence it forms the core of the noun phrase 'sponsor of orphans' (hâmi-ye yatim-hâ).
What is the infinitive of the verb میفرستد?
The infinitive is فرستادن (ferestâdan), meaning 'to send'. The present stem is فرست (ferest), to which we add the continuous prefix می (mi-) and the third-person singular ending ـد (-ad).
