Questions & Answers about او دیر بلند شد و صبحانه نخورد.
Since this lesson is about har (every), how would I say "Every day he gets up late and doesn't eat breakfast"?
You would add har plus the singular noun ruz (day). Because it becomes a repeated habit, you also need to change the verbs from the simple past to the present tense: Ou har ruz dir boland mishavad va sobhāneh nemikhorad.
What is the literal meaning of the verb boland shod?
Boland shodan is a compound verb. Boland means "high" or "tall", and shodan means "to become". Literally it means "he became tall," which is the standard Farsi way to say "he got up" or "he stood up."
How is the negative formed in nakhoord (did not eat)?
To make a simple past tense verb negative, you just attach the prefix na- to the front of it. Here, the positive verb is khord (he/she ate), so adding na- makes it nakhoord (he/she did not eat).
Why isn't the word ou (he) repeated before sobhāneh nakhoord?
In Farsi, you don't need to repeat the subject if it hasn't changed. Because the verb nakhoord is conjugated for the third-person singular, the "he/she" is already built into the word.
