با حالتهای بی شمار Explanation: Dictionary definition of myriad: 4. having innumerable phases, aspects, variations, etc.: the myriad mind of Shakespeare. The basic meaning of myriad بی شمار can't be used by itself in Persian like in English. I think حالت works well here. By the way, the sentence says nothing about crying or tears. |

هزار چهره/ با چهره هزار رنگ خود Explanation: if the figurative meaning of the word in this sentence refers to the different and countless aspects or characteristics of a person so we can use colour to give that figurative quality to the person, as we have such an expression in Farsi (Persian). by هزار رنگ here I mean countless aspects. and I think it gives a kind of negative quality to the character as some expressions like sunken, gaunt hand give. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 days (2010-12-14 21:23:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- yes it can be used for a person, as we have expression like آدم دو رنگی است. when we use colour in such expressions we mean that this kind of person do not have a stable character. it is also true about هزار رنگ which says the person has many different characters.
