Questions & Answers about فرآیند اشتقاق در کتاب توضیح داده شده بود.
How does the prefix farâ- contribute to the meaning of farâyand (process)?
The conceptual prefix farâ- implies "forward," "beyond," or "trans-." The second part, âyand, is derived from the present stem of âmadan (to come). Put together, farâyand literally suggests "that which comes forward" or moves continuously over time, which forms the modern Farsi word for "process."
Let's review the verb tozih dâdeh shodeh bud. How exactly is this past perfect passive formed?
To say something "had been explained," Farsi layers three verb parts. You take the past participle of the compound verb tozih dâdan (tozih dâdeh), add the past participle of the passive auxiliary shodan (shodeh), and finish with the simple past of budan (bud). If it were active ("he/she had explained"), it would just be tozih dâdeh bud.
The word eshteqâq is used here for "derivation." Is this related to other vocabulary I might know?
Yes, eshteqâq is an Arabic verbal noun originally meaning "cleaving" or "splitting off," and by extension, "deriving." At the B2 level, you might also encounter its related adjective moshtaq (derived), which is used in grammar (derived words) and mathematics (derivatives).
How do we link farâyand and eshteqâq when reading this sentence aloud?
You need to add the spoken ezâfe (the linking vowel -e), pronouncing it farâyand-e eshteqâq (the process of derivation). Because ends in a consonant, the is not written in the Persian script, but it is grammatically required to connect the two nouns.
