...manteghi TAR ... AZ INKE


Explanation:

Although the words used in the TL may differ depending on the context , meaning and etc, the comparative form of adjs in Farsi( tar...az )(i.e. more ...than in English in general and in the extract sentence here in particular) might not be ignored.
You are very welcome for any comments on my explanation.

Explanation:
the infinitive (nemodan) in Farsi is MISUSED to mean (... KARDAN), instead, it actually means: to depict,to express , and to show and the like.
