Questions & Answers about در انیمیشن سنتی، کشیدن هر فریم زمانبر است. در مقابل، تکنیک سهبعدی از آن سریعتر است.
Why is در مقابل used here instead of برعکس?
در مقابل means "in contrast" or "on the other hand" and is used to compare two distinct things (here, traditional animation vs. 3D animation). برعکس means "on the contrary" and is typically used to contradict or negate a previous statement entirely. Since we are just pointing out a difference in speed between two distinct animation styles rather than saying the first statement is false, در مقابل is the correct choice.
How is the adjective زمانبر formed?
It is a compound word made from the noun زمان (time) and بر, which is the present stem of the verb بردن (to take, to carry). Together, they literally mean "time-taking," which translates perfectly to "time-consuming." Recognizing present stems at the end of compound adjectives is a great way to decode new vocabulary at this level.
Why do we use the full infinitive کشیدن (to draw) at the start of the clause?
In Farsi, the infinitive acts like an English gerund (words ending in "-ing"). Here, کشیدن translates to "drawing." It connects to its object هر فریم (every frame) using the ezafe, creating the noun phrase "drawing every frame" which functions as the subject of the first sentence.
What exactly does the pronoun آن refer to in the phrase از آن سریعتر است?
آن (that) refers back to the entire concept of کشیدن هر فریم (drawing every frame) from the previous sentence. Remember that Farsi comparatives use for "than," so smoothly translates to "faster than that (process)."
