Questions & Answers about آیا این پوشش ضد اشعه از نفوذ آب هم جلوگیری میکند؟
How is the word for 'anti-radiation' formed here, and how do we connect it to 'coating'?
ضد اشعه (zedd-e ash'e) is formed using ضد (zedd), meaning 'anti-' or 'counter-', linked to the noun اشعه (ash'e), meaning 'radiation' or 'rays'. Because ضد acts as a modifier, you need an Ezafe (-e) to connect it to the word it opposes, and another Ezafe to connect the main noun پوشش (puhesh, coating) to the whole compound, resulting in پوششِ ضدِ اشعه (puhesh-e zedd-e ash'e).
How does the noun پوشش (puhesh) relate to the verb 'to wear' or 'to cover'?
پوشش (puhesh) is formed from the present stem of پوشیدن (pushidan, to wear/to cover), which is پوش (push), plus the noun-forming suffix ـِش (-esh). This suffix turns a verb stem into a noun representing the action or result of the verb, giving us 'covering' or 'coating'.
Why is the preposition از (az) used before نفوذ (nofuz)?
It is required by the compound verb جلوگیری کردن (jelogiri kardan), which means 'to prevent'. In Farsi, the structure translates literally to preventing 'from' something, so you must always use از (az) before the noun or event that is being prevented.
Why is هم (ham) placed exactly where it is in this sentence?
هم (ham, meaning 'also' or 'too') usually immediately follows the specific concept it emphasizes. Here, it follows نفوذ آب (nofuz-e âb, penetration of water) because the speaker is asking if the coating stops water stopping radiation. Moving it elsewhere would change the focus of the 'too'.
