Questions & Answers about برای این نقاشی روی دیوار، نسبت دقیق را به دست میآوریم.
The current lesson is about the structure [number] + be + [number]. How does the word nesbat fit into this?
The word nesbat means ratio or proportion. While this sentence only talks about finding the ratio in general, if you were to state the actual proportion we obtained, you would use the lesson's structure. For example, you could say nesbat-e daqiq se be do ast (the exact ratio is three to two).
What is the literal translation of the compound verb be dast mi-āvarim?
It literally translates to we bring to hand. It is widely used in Farsi to mean to obtain, acquire, or gain. In academic or mathematical contexts like this one, it is the standard way to say calculate or derive a result.
Do we need an ezāfe between naqqāši and ru-ye divār?
Yes. To say the painting on the wall, you must link the noun to its location using an ezāfe, making it naqqāši-e ru-ye divār. Unlike English, which just places the prepositional phrase right after the noun, Farsi requires the ezāfe to show that the phrase on the wall directly describes the painting.
Since nesbat (ratio) is an abstract concept, why does it take the direct object marker rā?
The marker rā is used for any specific, definite direct object, whether it is physical or abstract. Because we are talking about a specific ratio (the exact ratio for this particular painting), the concept becomes definite in this context and therefore requires rā before the verb.
