Reza Biria

Hello,

In Persian, number inflections are marked for inanimate/animate referents. For animate nouns, it uses /an/, but for inanimate entities it employs /ha/:

1) Nouns (animate) + /an/

2) Nouns(inanimate ) + /ha/

Currently, the /at/ inflection from Arabic is also used for certain entities as well.

Best regards,

R. Biria
