Questions & Answers about ما در انتخابات پارلمان شفافیت میخواهیم.
How is the word شفافیت formed?
It is formed by taking the Arabic adjective شفاف (transparent or clear) and adding the suffix ـیت (-iyyat). This suffix is frequently used in Farsi to create formal abstract nouns from Arabic loanwords, functioning much like '-ity' or '-ness' in English.
Is an ezafe needed between انتخابات and پارلمان?
Yes, you must pronounce the hidden ezafe vowel to link these nouns together, making it انتخاباتِ پارلمان (entekhabat-e parleman). This translates literally to 'elections of parliament'.
What is the singular form of انتخابات, and what does its suffix indicate?
The singular form is انتخاب (choice or election). The ـات (-at) ending is an Arabic plural suffix that Farsi frequently uses for formal, administrative, or political Arabic loanwords.
Why doesn't شفافیت take the direct object marker را?
The marker را is reserved for definite, specific objects. Because the speaker is asking for transparency as a general, abstract concept rather than a specific, previously mentioned instance of it, the word remains indefinite, does not take را, and is placed immediately before the verb.
