Questions & Answers about به نظر میرسد که این بشقابپرنده وهمآور است.
How does the suffix in vahm-âvar create the meaning eerie?
The word is built from the noun vahm, which means dread, illusion, or fear, and the suffix -âvar, meaning bringing or causing. The suffix comes from the present stem of âvardan (to bring). So, vahm-âvar literally means dread-bringing or eerie.
Is the word boshghâb-parande a direct translation of the English phrase flying saucer?
Yes! It is a compound noun made of boshghâb (plate or saucer) and parande (flying, or a bird). Just like in English, it is the standard descriptive term used for a UFO.
Why does the phrase for it seems use the verb mi-resad?
The verb residan means to arrive or reach. The idiom be nazar mi-resad literally translates to it arrives to the view or it reaches the sight. This is the most common and standard way to express it seems or it appears in Farsi.
Is the conjunction ke required here, or can it be dropped like the word that in English?
In formal and written Farsi, ke is strictly required to connect the main clause to the dependent clause. In casual, spoken Farsi, you might occasionally hear it dropped, but keeping it after perception phrases like be nazar mi-resad sounds very natural and keeps the sentence structure clear.
