Questions & Answers about زبانشناس میخواد این واژگانو بررسی کنه.
What does the suffix -شناس in زبانشناس do?
The suffix -شناس comes from the present stem of شناختن (to know or recognize). It is added to nouns to describe an expert or someone who studies that field, much like "-ologist" in English. Here, زبان (language) plus شناس creates "linguist". Another common example is روانشناس (psychologist).
Is واژگان a singular or plural word?
Technically, واژگان is the plural of واژه (word) using the formal -ان plural suffix. However, in modern Farsi, it is very commonly used as a collective singular noun to mean "vocabulary" or "lexicon".
What is the -و attached to the end of واژگانو?
It is the colloquial spoken form of the direct object marker را. In spoken Farsi, را transforms into -و after words ending in a consonant (like the "n" in واژگان), and into -رو after words ending in a vowel.
Why do we use کنه instead of میکنه at the end of the sentence?
Because the first verb میخواد (wants) expresses a desire. In Farsi, the second verb in a chain like "wants to analyze" must be in the subjunctive mood. کنه is the colloquial subjunctive form of کند, used here as the light verb part of the compound verb بررسی کردن (to analyze).
