Questions & Answers about مصاحبهی استخدامی فردا صبح است.
How does estekhdâm fit the Form X pattern taught in this lesson, and what is its root?
The Arabic Form X pattern is este-C1-C2-â-C3, which often denotes seeking or utilizing something. In estekhdâm, the root consonants are kh (خ), d (د), and m (م), which relate to service (as seen in the familiar word khedmat). By plugging this root into the pattern, we get estekhdâm, which literally means seeking service or utilizing someone's service, and is the standard Farsi word for employment or hiring.
Why is there an -i at the end of estekhdâmi?
The suffix -i is a very common relational suffix that turns a noun into an adjective. While estekhdâm is the noun for employment, adding -i creates the adjective estekhdâmi (employment-related or recruitment). In this sentence, it modifies mosâhebe to specify the exact type of interview.
Why is the word for interview written as مصاحبهی with a ی at the end?
The base word for interview is mosâhebe (مصاحبه), which ends in a silent he (ه) that acts as an e vowel. Because it is followed by an adjective, it requires an ezafe. To bridge the e vowel of the noun and the ezafe, a y sound is inserted, making it mosâhebe-ye. In modern Farsi spelling, this is explicitly written by adding a ی after words ending in a silent he.
