Questions & Answers about تاثیر کودهای شیمیایی روی این مزرعه تا چه حد نامطلوب است؟
Does tâ che hadd have exactly the same meaning here as tâ che andâze?
Yes! Both translate to "to what extent" or "how much". You can swap tâ che hadd for tâ che andâze in this sentence with no change in meaning or formality. The word hadd literally means "limit" or "boundary", while andâze means "size" or "measure".
Why is tâ che hadd placed near the end of the sentence instead of at the beginning?
Farsi interrogatives usually sit in the exact spot where the answer would go in a normal declarative statement. Since the answer would modify the adjective nâ-matlub (for example, saying it is very unfavorable), the question phrase tâ che hadd sits directly before it.
The word for unfavorable is nâ-matlub. How is this word constructed?
It uses the negative prefix nâ- attached to matlub. The word matlub comes from an Arabic root meaning to seek or desire, so it translates to "desirable" or "sought after". Adding nâ- makes it "undesirable" or "unfavorable", which is perfect for formal contexts like discussing agricultural impacts.
Why does the sentence use ru-ye for the farm instead of a preposition like dar?
This preposition is actually tied to the word ta'sir (effect). Just like in English, where you talk about having an effect on something, Farsi uses ta'sir ... ru-ye (effect on) or sometimes ta'sir bar. It indicates the target of the impact rather than physical location.
How does the ezâfe chain work in the phrase ta'sir-e kud-hâ-ye shimiâ'i?
It uses two links. The first ezâfe, pronounced as -e, links the head noun ta'sir (effect) to its possessor, kud-hâ (fertilizers). The second ezâfe, pronounced as -ye because it follows a vowel, links kud-hâ to the adjective modifying it, shimiâ'i (chemical).
