با یقه

§ What "با یقه" means

Let's break down the Persian phrase "با یقه" (bâ yaqe). This term is used to describe something that has a collar, usually referring to clothing. Think of a shirt with a collar, or a dress that has a neckline with a collar – that's when you'd use "با یقه".

DEFINITION

Collared, having a collar.

The phrase literally translates to "with collar." The word "با" (bâ) means "with," and "یقه" (yaqe) means "collar." So, when you put them together, you get "with a collar" or simply "collared." It's pretty straightforward, right?

§ When to use "با یقه"

You'll typically use "با یقه" when you're talking about clothing and want to specify that an item has a collar. It helps to distinguish between garments that have a collar and those that don't. For example, a t-shirt usually doesn't have a collar, while a button-down shirt does. This distinction is important in everyday conversations about clothes.

Here are some common situations where you might hear or use "با یقه":

• When describing a shirt: "یک پیراهن با یقه" (yek pirâhan bâ yaqe) - a collared shirt.
• When talking about a dress: "لباس با یقه" (lebâs bâ yaqe) - a collared dress.
• When asking for a specific type of clothing in a store: "شما پیراهن‌های با یقه دارید؟" (shomâ pirâhanhâ-ye bâ yaqe dârid?) - Do you have collared shirts?

§ Examples in context

Translation hint: He was wearing a blue collared shirt.

Translation hint: This collared dress is suitable for the party.

Translation hint: I'm looking for a V-neck collared sweater. (Here, "یقه هفت" (yaqe haft) means V-neck, so "با یقه هفت" means with a V-neck collar.)

§ Practice using "با یقه"

The best way to get comfortable with new vocabulary is to use it. Try to describe some of your own clothes. Do you have a shirt با یقه? Or perhaps a jacket با یقه? The more you practice, the more natural it will become.

Keep an eye out for this phrase when you're reading or listening to Persian. You'll find that it's a common and useful term in everyday conversations about fashion and clothing. Mastering these simple, practical phrases will really boost your fluency.
