Questions & Answers about به نظر میرسد که این پرندهی کوچنده و خالدار، خسته است.
Why is there an Ezafe on پرندهی but not on کوچنده?
Because we used و (and) to link the adjectives کوچنده (migratory) and خالدار (spotted), making them parallel modifiers. The single Ezafe on پرندهی connects the noun to this whole adjective pair. If we dropped the و and used an Ezafe on کوچنده, we would form a standard Ezafe chain, which is grammatically fine but stylistically different.
How is the adjective کوچنده (migratory) formed?
It is made by adding the active participle suffix -نده to the present stem of کوچیدن (to migrate). While you often see this suffix used for people performing an action, like راننده (driver), it is also commonly used to create descriptive adjectives, similar to the English '-ing' suffix.
What role does دار play in the word خالدار (spotted)?
دار is the present stem of داشتن (to have). When attached to a noun like خال (spot or mole), it acts as a suffix to create an adjective meaning possession. Therefore, خالدار literally translates to 'having spots'.
Why does the verb میرسد (arrives) mean 'seems' here?
The phrase به نظر رسیدن is a very common fixed idiom. نظر means 'view', 'opinion', or 'sight'. Literally, the phrase means 'it arrives to sight', which is how Farsi expresses 'it seems' or 'it appears'.
