Questions & Answers about طرفین برای مصالحه به دادگستری آمدند.
Why does the verb آمدند take a plural ending if طرفین doesn't have a standard Farsi plural suffix?
The word طرفین (tarafeyn) uses the Arabic dual suffix -eyn, meaning exactly two sides or both parties. Because it refers to more than one entity, Farsi treats this lexicalized dual noun as a plural subject, requiring the plural verb agreement -and.
Can I just use طرفها instead of طرفین in this sentence?
You can use طرفها (taraf-hâ) to mean sides in general, but طرفین is a highly common set phrase in formal, official, or legal contexts specifically meaning both parties in a dispute or contract. Using طرفها here would sound much less natural.
How do the parts of the word دادگستری translate to courthouse?
It is a compound noun made of داد (justice) and گستر (the present stem of گستردن, meaning to spread), plus the noun-forming suffix -i. It literally translates to the act or place of justice-spreading, which is the standard Farsi term for the judiciary or a courthouse.
Is مصالحه a common everyday word for making up with a friend?
No, مصالحه (mosâlehe) is quite formal and usually refers to a legal, political, or financial settlement and compromise. If you are making up with a friend after an argument, you would use a simpler, everyday word like آشتی (âshti).
