Questions & Answers about او همیشه تمارض میکند، از این رو هیچکس حرف او را باور نمیکند.
How does the word تمارض demonstrate the 'pretense' function of the Arabic pattern we are studying?
تمارض (tamâroz) is built on the Arabic root for illness (m-r-z), which you might recognize from the word مریض (mariz, sick). By placing these root letters into the ta-C1-â-C2-o-C3 pattern, it takes on the meaning of 'feigning' or 'pretending'. Thus, تمارض کردن means 'to pretend to be sick'.
What is the literal translation of از این رو and how is it used here?
Literally, it means 'from this face' or 'from this direction' (رو means face or direction). It is used as a conjunction meaning 'hence', 'therefore', or 'for this reason', which is a great way to smoothly connect cause and effect in your writing.
Why is the verb نمیکند in the negative form if هیچکس already means 'nobody'?
Farsi strictly uses double negation. When you use a negative word like هیچکس (nobody) or هیچچیز (nothing) in a sentence, the main verb must also take the negative prefix نـ (ne- or na-).
Why does the Farsi sentence say حرف او را باور نمیکند instead of just saying 'nobody believes him'?
In English, we say 'believe him', but Farsi typically prefers the phrase حرف کسی را باور کردن (literally 'to believe someone's word') when talking about believing what a person is saying.
