When you start learning a new language, it's super helpful to know some basic words about people and jobs. Today, we're looking at a word that's very useful: مترجم.
This word means 'translator' in English. A مترجم is someone who changes words or text from one language into another. Imagine you have a book in Persian, and you want to read it in English; a مترجم is the person who makes that happen!
You might meet a مترجم if you're traveling and need help understanding someone, or if you're reading a document that's not in your native language. Knowing this word helps you talk about jobs and understand who does what in different language situations.
When you're learning a new language like Persian, you'll find words that are really helpful in everyday situations. مترجم (motarjem) is one of those words.
It means 'translator,' and it's used for someone who changes words from one language into another. At the A2 level, you're building up your basic vocabulary for common topics. Knowing this word helps you talk about jobs or asking for help with language differences.
When discussing advanced translation, especially in a professional or literary context, the word مترجم (motarjem) carries nuances beyond simple word-for-word conversion. At a C2 level, learners should understand that a skilled مترجم doesn't just swap words, but expertly bridges cultural and contextual gaps between languages.
This often involves a deep understanding of idiomatic expressions, cultural references, and the subtle intentions behind a speaker's or writer's words. Therefore, a C2-level مترجم is not merely a linguistic conveyor but a cultural and intellectual interpreter, capable of recreating the original text's full impact in the target language.

§ مترجم vs. Alternatives: When to Use Which
'مترجم' is your go-to word for a person whose job is to translate written text. Think of someone who translates books, documents, or websites.
When you're talking about someone who translates spoken language in real-time, for example, at a meeting or a conference, the more specific term is 'مترجم شفاهی'. While 'مترجم' can sometimes be used broadly, 'مترجم شفاهی' removes any ambiguity. Think of the difference between a 'translator' (written) and an 'interpreter' (spoken) in English – it's similar in Persian.
The words 'ترجمه' and 'برگردان' refer to the act or result of translating, not the person. So you wouldn't say "He is a ترجمه" – that doesn't make sense. You'd say "He is a مترجم."
Practice using these words in different contexts. The more you use them, the more natural they'll feel.

الأسئلة الشائعة
10 أسئلةThe word for 'translator' in Persian is مترجم (motarjem).
In Persian, مترجم (motarjem) specifically refers to a 'translator' (someone who translates written text). For an 'interpreter' (someone who translates spoken language), you might use مترجم همزمان (motarjem hamzaman), which literally means 'simultaneous translator', or sometimes just مترجم can be used in a broader sense depending on context. However, مترجم on its own most commonly implies written translation.
Yes, you can refer to an online translation tool like Google Translate as یک مترجم آنلاین (yek motarjem online), meaning 'an online translator'.
The word مترجم comes from Arabic, like many words in Persian. It's derived from the root ت-ر-ج-م (t-r-j-m) which relates to translation.
To pluralize مترجم, you can add ان (ân) to the end, making it مترجمان (motarjemân), which means 'translators'. This is a common way to pluralize animate nouns in Persian.
In Persian, nouns generally don't have grammatical gender like in some other languages. So, مترجم can refer to both a male or female translator. If you need to specify gender, you might add words like زن (zan - woman) or مرد (mard - man), e.g., مترجم زن (motarjem zan - female translator).
You can use it like this: او یک مترجم خوب است. (Ou yek motarjem khub ast.) - He/She is a good translator. Or: من به یک مترجم نیاز دارم. (Man be yek motarjem niaz daram.) - I need a translator.
Related words include ترجمه (tarjome - translation, the act or result), ترجمه کردن (tarjome kardan - to translate, the verb), and زبان (zabân - language).
