Questions & Answers about مهم است که شما این خبر را بشنوید.
How is the verb بشنوید (you hear) formed in this sentence?
It is in the present subjunctive form. The infinitive is شنیدن (to hear) and its present stem is شنو (shnav). To make the subjunctive, we add the prefix بـ (be-) at the beginning and the matching ending for "you" ـید (-id) at the end, giving us بشنوید (beshnavid).
Why do we use the subjunctive form بشنوید here instead of the regular present tense?
The phrase مهم است که (it is important that) expresses a necessity, opinion, or desire rather than a concrete fact. In Farsi, these types of phrases always trigger the subjunctive form for the verb that follows them.
Why is the word را (ra) placed right after خبر (news)?
را is a grammar word that marks a specific direct object. Because the sentence specifies این خبر (this news) rather than just general news, it is a definite object. Therefore, را must immediately follow it to show it is the exact thing being heard.
Why does the verb بشنوید come at the very end of the sentence?
Farsi typically follows a Subject-Object-Verb word order. After the conjunction که (that), the second half of the sentence starts its own standard structure: the subject شما (you), the object این خبر را (this news), and finally the verb بشنوید (hear) at the very end.
