مساوی
مساوی في 30 ثانية
- Mosāvi means 'equal' and is used for math, sports draws, and social rights.
- It is an adjective that often pairs with the preposition 'bā' (with).
- In sports, use the verb 'mosāvi shodan' to describe a tied game.
- It differs from 'yeksān' (identical) by focusing on quantity rather than appearance.
The word مساوی (mosāvi) is a cornerstone of the Persian language, derived from the Arabic root 's-w-y', which pertains to being level, even, or uniform. In its most fundamental sense, it describes a state where two or more entities possess the same quantity, measure, value, or status. It is the linguistic equivalent of the mathematical equals sign (=). However, its utility extends far beyond the realm of arithmetic, permeating social, legal, and philosophical discourses in Iranian culture.
- Mathematical Equality
- In mathematics, 'mosāvi' is used to denote that the result of an operation is identical to a value. For example, 'Two plus two equals four' translates to 'Do be alave-ye do mosāvi-ye chahār ast'. It represents an absolute identity in magnitude.
در ریاضیات، دو بعلاوه دو مساوی چهار است.
Beyond numbers, 'mosāvi' is used to describe physical attributes. If two pieces of fabric are the same length, they are 'mosāvi'. If two people have the same height, their heights are 'mosāvi'. It implies a lack of discrepancy. In a social context, the word takes on a weightier meaning, often appearing in discussions about 'Hoghough-e Mosāvi' (Equal Rights). Here, it signifies that individuals should be treated with the same level of respect and granted the same legal protections regardless of their background.
- Social Context
- The term is frequently used in political and social justice movements in Iran to demand 'equal opportunities' (forsat-hā-ye mosāvi) for all citizens, particularly in education and employment.
همه انسانها باید دارای حقوق مساوی باشند.
In sports, 'mosāvi' is the standard term for a draw or a tie. When a football match ends 1-1, the result is described as 'mosāvi'. The verb 'mosāvi shodan' (to become equal) is used to describe the act of leveling the score or reaching a stalemate. This usage is ubiquitous in Iranian media during sports broadcasts.
- Comparative Usage
- When comparing two things, 'mosāvi' is often followed by the preposition 'bā' (with). For example, 'A bā B mosāvi ast' (A is equal to B).
تلاش او با موفقیتش مساوی نبود.
To summarize, 'mosāvi' is a versatile adjective that bridges the gap between technical precision and social aspiration. Whether you are solving a geometry problem, watching a wrestling match, or debating human rights, this word provides the necessary framework to describe parity and balance. Its pronunciation is straightforward, and its application is essential for any learner reaching the B1 level of Persian proficiency.
Using 'مساوی' (mosāvi) correctly requires understanding its role as an adjective and its common verbal pairings. In Persian, adjectives usually follow the noun they modify with an 'ezāfe' (the -e sound), but 'mosāvi' often functions as a predicate adjective in a sentence, coming after the subject and before the verb 'to be'.
- Predicate Usage
- The most common structure is [Subject] + [Preposition 'bā'] + [Object] + [mosāvi] + [Verb]. For example: 'In do khat bā ham mosāvi hastand' (These two lines are equal to each other).
وزن این دو بسته با هم مساوی است.
When 'mosāvi' is used to describe a result, particularly in games or competitions, it is paired with the auxiliary verb 'shodan' (to become). 'Bāzi mosāvi shod' means 'The game ended in a draw'. This is a very common phrase in daily conversation. You can also use 'kardan' (to make) to indicate making two things equal, such as 'mosāvi kardan-e emtiāzāt' (equalizing the scores).
- Adverbial Use
- While primarily an adjective, it can function adverbially to mean 'equally'. For instance, 'Poul rā be tore mosāvi taghsim kardand' (They divided the money equally).
کیک را به قطعات مساوی تقسیم کن.
In formal documents, you might see 'mosāvi' used in the context of 'equal distribution' or 'equal representation'. It is a formal word, but it is not 'too formal' for daily life. It is the standard word for 'equal'. If you want to sound more colloquial when talking about things being the same, you might use 'yeksān' or 'mesle ham', but 'mosāvi' remains the most precise term for exact parity.
- Compound Verbs
- 'Mosāvi kardan' (to equalize) and 'Mosāvi shodan' (to tie/draw) are the primary compound verbs you need to master.
تیم ما در دقیقه نود بازی را مساوی کرد.
Finally, remember that 'mosāvi' is an invariable adjective. It does not change based on the gender or number of the noun it describes (as Persian does not have grammatical gender). This makes it relatively easy to use once you understand the sentence structure.
The word 'مساوی' is a staple of Iranian daily life, appearing in various environments from the classroom to the stadium. Understanding these contexts will help you recognize the word in natural speech.
- Sports Commentary
- If you watch a football (soccer) match on IRIB (Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting), you will hear the commentator shout 'Bāzi mosāvi shod!' when a team scores an equalizer. It is the most common way to describe a draw.
نتیجه نهایی: دو بر دو مساوی.
In educational settings, specifically during math or science classes, 'mosāvi' is used constantly. Teachers will say 'X mosāvi-ye Y' (X equals Y). Students learn this word as soon as they begin learning addition and subtraction. It is also used in geometry to describe 'equal angles' (zāvie-hā-ye mosāvi) or 'equal sides' (zel'-hā-ye mosāvi).
- News and Politics
- News anchors often use 'mosāvi' when discussing international treaties, trade balances, or human rights reports. Phrases like 'barābari va hoghough-e mosāvi' (equality and equal rights) are common in political discourse.
دولت وعده فرصتهای شغلی مساوی را داده است.
In the kitchen or during DIY projects, you'll hear it when measuring ingredients or materials. 'In do livān bāyad mosāvi bāshand' (These two cups must be equal). It implies a need for precision. Even in casual conversation about fairness, someone might say 'In mosāvi nist!' (This isn't equal/fair!) when they feel they are being treated differently than someone else.
- Legal Settings
- In a courtroom or legal document, 'mosāvi' refers to the equal standing of parties before the law or the equal distribution of an inheritance (though specific religious laws may apply).
قانون برای همه مساوی است.
While 'مساوی' (mosāvi) is a relatively straightforward word, learners often make subtle mistakes in its application, particularly when distinguishing it from similar words like 'barābar' or 'yeksān'.
- Confusing with 'Yeksān'
- 'Yeksān' means 'identical' or 'the same' in appearance or nature. 'Mosāvi' specifically refers to quantity or value. You wouldn't say two twins look 'mosāvi'; you would say they look 'yeksān'.
اشتباه: این دو پیراهن مساوی هستند. (در حالی که منظور همشکل است)
Another common error is the misuse of prepositions. As mentioned, 'mosāvi' usually takes 'bā' (with). Some learners mistakenly use 'be' (to) or 'az' (from), which results in ungrammatical sentences. 'A bā B mosāvi ast' is the correct pattern. Using 'mosāvi' without a preposition when comparing two things can also lead to confusion.
- Overusing in Social Contexts
- While 'mosāvi' is used for 'equal rights', the word 'barābar' is often preferred in poetic or highly formal social justice contexts to emphasize the concept of 'equality' as a human value rather than a mathematical one.
درست: حقوق مساوی / برابری انسانی.
In sports, learners sometimes say 'Bāzi hamān shod' (The game became the same) instead of 'Bāzi mosāvi shod'. While 'hamān' means 'the same', it is never used to describe a score in Persian. This is a classic 'translation' error where the learner tries to map English 'same' directly to Persian without knowing the specific sports terminology.
- Pronunciation Pitfall
- Some learners mispronounce the 'v' as a 'w' (mosāwi). While this is common in some Arabic dialects, in standard Persian, it is a clear 'v' sound, similar to the English 'v' in 'victory'.
تلفظ صحیح: mo-sā-VI.
To truly master 'مساوی', you must understand its relationship with other Persian words that express similarity or equality. Here is a breakdown of the most common synonyms and how they differ.
- برابر (Barābar)
- 'Barābar' is the closest synonym to 'mosāvi'. It is often used interchangeably in mathematical and social contexts. However, 'barābar' also has a spatial meaning of 'opposite' or 'facing' (e.g., 'dar barābar-e' - in front of/against). 'Mosāvi' is more strictly about quantity.
مقایسه: پنج با پنج مساوی است / پنج با پنج برابر است.
'Yeksān' (یکسان) focuses on uniformity. If two things are 'yeksān', they are identical in kind or quality. For example, 'lebās-hā-ye yeksān' (uniform clothes). You wouldn't say 'lebās-hā-ye mosāvi' unless you were talking about their size or price being exactly the same.
- هماندازه (Ham-andāze)
- This literally means 'same size'. It is a compound of 'ham' (same) and 'andāze' (size). It is more specific than 'mosāvi'. If two boxes are 'ham-andāze', they have the same dimensions, but they might not be 'mosāvi' in weight or value.
این دو اتاق هماندازه هستند.
'Motashābeh' (متشابه) means 'similar'. It is used when two things share characteristics but are not necessarily equal or identical. In geometry, 'mosallash-hā-ye motashābeh' are similar triangles (same angles, different sizes), whereas 'mosallash-hā-ye mosāvi' would imply they are congruent (identical in every way).
- یکسان (Yeksān) vs. مشابه (Motashābeh)
- Use 'yeksān' for things that are exactly the same; use 'motashābeh' for things that just look alike or have common features.
