Questions & Answers about آنها در حالی که معلق هستند، بیوزنی را حس میکنند.
How does the phrase dar hâli ke function in this sentence?
It translates to "while" and links two simultaneous actions. Literally meaning "in the state that" (dar = in, hâl = state, -i = a, ke = that), it is a common conjunction used to show that one action happens during the exact same timeframe as another.
How is the abstract noun bi-vazni constructed?
It is built from the root vazn (weight). The prefix bi- (without) turns it into the adjective bi-vazn (weightless). Adding the noun-forming suffix -i at the end creates bi-vazni (weightlessness).
Why does an abstract concept like bi-vazni take the direct object marker râ here?
While râ is most famous for marking specific, definite direct objects, Farsi frequently uses it with abstract nouns when they act as the direct object of verbs of feeling or experiencing, such as hes kardan (to feel).
Could mo'allaq be translated as "floating" instead of "suspended"?
Yes. While mo'allaq literally means hanging, dangling, or suspended, it is the standard word used for "floating" in a zero-gravity environment or for objects suspended mid-air.
