In this lesson, you are learning that hamin means "this very" or "exactly this". Since jâ means "place", combining them into hamin-jâ literally means "this very place". In English, we naturally translate this emphatic phrase as "right here".

If I wanted to say "right there" instead of "right here", how would I change this sentence?

You would swap hamin for its distant counterpart hamân (that very). "Right there" or "that exact place" translates to hamân-jâ, making the sentence namâyeshgâh hamân-jâ ast.

What does the -gâh ending on namâyeshgâh do?

The suffix -gâh denotes a location or "place of". Here, it attaches to namâyesh (display or show) to create namâyeshgâh (a place of display, which means an exhibition, fair, or gallery).

How would a native speaker pronounce this sentence in casual conversation?

In spoken Farsi, the verb ast (is) usually drops its "a" and attaches to the previous word. Because hamin-jâ ends in a vowel, it merges to become hamin-jâst. In everyday speech, you will hear: namâyeshgâh hamin-jâst.
