Questions & Answers about مهماندار نیز به خلبان اطلاع میدهد.
Why is niz used here instead of the more common ham for 'also'?
niz means exactly the same thing as ham ('also' or 'too'), but it belongs to a more formal, written register. Since this sentence is likely part of an official instruction or manual, using niz matches the formal tone of the lesson's conditional phrases.
Why do we use be before khalabān instead of making the pilot the direct object with rā?
The compound verb ettelā' dādan literally means 'to give information'. In Farsi, you give information to someone, so the person receiving the information requires the preposition be rather than the direct object marker rā.
Does the word mehmāndār only mean 'flight attendant'?
Not exclusively, though it is the standard word for 'flight attendant' in modern Farsi. It is composed of mehmān (guest) plus the suffix -dār (keeper or holder, from the root of the verb dāshtan). It literally translates to 'host' or 'one who looks after guests'.
The verb اطلاع میدهد is in the present indicative tense. Why is this used if it describes a conditional result?
In Farsi procedural manuals or formal instructions (such as 'in the event of an emergency, the flight attendant does X'), the present indicative (mi- + present stem + endings) is used for the result clause. It expresses a factual, guaranteed procedure that happens whenever the condition is met.
