Questions & Answers about مهم است که آنها پول را بدهند.
Why do we use the subjunctive verb بدهند instead of the normal present tense میدهند?
The phrase مهم است که (it is important that) expresses a necessity or opinion rather than a stated fact. In Farsi, phrases that express desire, necessity, or doubt must be followed by a verb in the subjunctive mood.
How exactly is بدهند formed?
The infinitive for "to give" is دادن. Its present stem is irregular: ده. To make the present subjunctive, we add the prefix بـ to the stem, and then attach the personal ending for "they", which is ـَند. Put together, it makes بدهند (be-deh-and).
Why is there a را after پول?
را is used to mark a specific direct object. Because the sentence means they are giving "the money" (a specific sum we already know about) rather than just giving money in general, we must put را directly after پول.
Could we drop the word آنها (they) from this sentence?
Yes, you can safely drop it and just say مهم است که پول را بدهند. The verb ending ـَند already tells us that the subject is "they". Including آنها here just adds a little extra emphasis.
