Questions & Answers about گفته میشود که نابودی طبیعت یک ضرر جبرانناپذیر به شمار میرود.
Why use گفته میشود here instead of the more common میگویند to mean 'it is said'?
While both convey the same idea, گفته میشود is the formal passive voice (literally 'it is said') and is a hallmark of argumentative or journalistic Farsi. میگویند (they say) is active and generally feels more conversational. Since this sentence is discussing a serious topic, the formal passive fits perfectly.
How does the word جبرانناپذیر break down to mean 'irreparable'?
It is a compound made of جبران (compensation or making up for) and the suffix ناپذیر. The root پذیر comes from پذیرفتن (to accept), so adding the negative prefix نا creates ناپذیر (unaccepting or incapable of). Together, it literally means 'incapable of compensation'. This suffix is incredibly useful at the B2 level for translating English words ending in '-able' or '-ible'.
How does the verb به شمار میرود translate to 'is considered'?
The infinitive به شمار رفتن is a formal idiom that literally means 'to go to count'. In practice, it is used heavily in academic or formal Farsi to mean 'is considered', 'is counted as', or 'is regarded as'. It functions as the passive equivalent to به شمار آوردن (to count as or to consider).
Why use نابودی for 'destruction' instead of just نابود?
نابود is an adjective meaning 'destroyed' or 'annihilated'. By adding the suffix ی, it turns into the abstract noun نابودی (destruction or annihilation). This allows it to act as the core noun in the phrase نابودی طبیعت (the destruction of nature).
