- Despite the modern technical use of نصب کردن (nasb kardan) for software, the root word نصب comes from Arabic and originally referred to setting something upright or erect.
- The second part of the phrase, کردن (kardan), is a 'light verb' that can be attached to many other words to turn a noun into a functional verb, similar to how English uses 'to do' or 'to make' in certain contexts.
- The word نصب (nasb) used in this phrase is a loanword from Arabic, showing how Persian incorporates foreign nouns to create new functional verbs.
