Questions & Answers about آنها پیشروی میکنند، اما باد شدید باعث سرمازدگی میشود.
Why does باعث link to سرمازدگی with an ezafe rather than using the direct object marker را?
The Farsi structure for to cause something is باعث چیزی شدن. Because باعث is actually a noun meaning cause or reason, it links to the resulting noun using an ezafe. Literally, the wind becomes the cause of frostbite, so no direct object marker is needed.
What is the literal breakdown of the word پیشروی meaning advance?
It is formed from پیش meaning forward or front, and روی which comes from the present stem of رفتن to go, plus the noun-forming suffix ی. Together, it literally translates to forward-going.
How is the noun سرمازدگی formed to mean frostbite?
It combines سرما meaning cold, with زده meaning struck or hit (the past participle of زدن), and the noun-suffix گی. It literally means the state of being cold-struck.
How should the letter ع be pronounced in the word باعث?
In standard Farsi, the letter ع in the middle of a word creates a glottal stop, similar to the catch in your throat between syllables in the English word uh-oh. You should cleanly separate the two vowels, pronouncing it as bâ'es rather than blending them together.
