A couple of Farsi translation questions
Hello! I have a couple questions about how to express these meanings in spoken Farsi.

1. how would you say, "to mail a letter/package" ? would you normally use, فرسادن or is there a specific word?
2. how do you express "to share" something? such as, "we share a closet" or "I will share my food with you"
3. How do you say "as x as a"? For example, "He's as tall as a tree" or "She's as smart as Newton"
4. How do you express, "to appear" as in, "to show up"? Would you say اون از ورود ظاهر شد or is there a different verb you would use?

Thank you so much as always for taking the time to answer my questions.

فرستادن یا پست کردن یک بسته یا نامه

او به اندازه یک درخت بلنده

ظاهر شدن/ ورود پیدا کردن /

Answer

Hi,
1- we use فرستادن most of the time but for more formal speech or letter we use ارسال کردن. if you mean how we say for example I mail a letter by post. we use پست کردن for example من نامه را پست کردم.

2- Farnosh answered this well but we usually dont use such sentences in our talks, we say کمد را باهم استفاده میکنیم یا غذا را باهم خوردیم.

3- we say it in different ways but just in case of your example: او مثله درخت بلنده. اون باهوشه عینه (مثله) نیوتن. or as Farnosh said به اندازه ی

4- It depends on the meaning of sentence. Please say what do you exactly want to say....
