Noun

مُنتَظِر • (montazer) (plural مُنتَظِران (montazerân))

  1. person who is waiting
    منتظر تو هستم. (more literary)
    montazer-e to hastam.
    I am waiting for you.
    (literally, “I am your awaiter.”)
    منتظرتم (more colloquial)

    • 2021 May 7, “بیگ داگ؛ سخت‌ترین و عجیب‌ترین مسابقه‌ای که تصور می‌کنید”, in bbc.com/persian‎, BBC Persian:
      شما منتظر پایان نیستید؛ منتظر شروع مسابقه هستید.
      šomâ montazer-e pâyân nistid; montazer-e šoru'-e mosâbeqe hastid.
      You're not waiting for the end; you're waiting for the beginning of the match.

Usage notes

  • As seen in the example and quotation above, the English verb "to wait for; to await" is frequently conveyed in Persian by a possessed form of مُنتَظِر (montazer) along with the copula بودَن (budan, “to be”), literally "to be someone/something's awaiter", "to be one who awaits for someone/something".
