Questions & Answers about به گفتهی طراح، این استایل خیلی زیبا است.
How does به گفتهی work here, and why does it have a ی at the end?
به گفتهی translates to 'according to' or literally 'to the saying of'. The ی at the end is the ezafe linking the noun گفته (saying or statement) to طراح (designer). Because گفته ends in a silent heh (ه), we must add the ی in writing to represent the ezafe sound (-ye).
Could I use the lesson's other phrase, به نقل از, instead of به گفتهی in this sentence?
Yes, but it changes the tone. به گفتهی طراح implies 'according to the designer', which is natural for everyday speech and general statements. به نقل از طراح means 'quoting from the designer', which sounds much more formal or journalistic, as if you are referencing a published magazine interview.
The word استایل sounds just like the English word 'style'. Is that normal in Farsi?
Yes, استایل is a direct English loanword. In modern Farsi, especially in fields like fashion, pop culture, and technology, English loanwords are used frequently and naturally by native speakers. You could use the native word سبک (sabk) for style, but استایل fits perfectly here.
What is the structure of the word طراح (designer)?
طراح (tarrah) comes from an Arabic root pattern used for professions or people who do an action continuously or intensely. It shares this exact rhythmic pattern with words you likely already know, such as (naqqash - painter) or (akkas - photographer).
