Questions & Answers about این پدیده جدید قطعاً پیامدهای منفی دارد.
Why does قطعاً (ghat'an) end with those two little diagonal lines?
Those two lines are an Arabic marker called a tanvin. In Farsi, it is added to certain Arabic loanwords to turn them into adverbs. Here, it turns the base word قطع (certainty) into قطعاً (certainly / definitely). It is always pronounced as "-an".
How do we pronounce the link between پدیده (phenomenon) and جدید (new) since the first word ends in a vowel sound?
Because پدیده (padide) ends in a silent "e" sound, the Ezafe (the linking sound between nouns and adjectives) is pronounced as "-ye" to keep the vowels from crashing together, making it padide-ye jadid. Here the Ezafe is invisible, though you will sometimes see it written with an extra ی at the end of the first word.
What is the literal meaning behind the word پیامد (consequence)?
It is a compound word made of پی (after / following) and آمد (the past stem of the verb to come). So a consequence is quite literally something that comes after an event.
In پیامدهای منفی, how are the plural marker and the linking Ezafe combined?
The plural marker ها attaches to the noun first, making پیامدها (consequences). Because the adjective منفی (negative) follows it, we must add an Ezafe. Since ها ends in the vowel "a", the Ezafe is written as a standalone ی and pronounced "-ye", resulting in payâmad-hâ-ye manfi.
