Questions & Answers about دانشمندان واکسن جدید را در آزمایشگاه آزمایش خواهند کرد.
How is the future tense of the compound verb آزمایش کردن formed in this sentence?
A compound verb has two parts: a non-verb word (آزمایش) and a light verb (کردن). To make it future tense, we only conjugate the light verb. We put the future helper verb خواهند (they will) right between the non-verb part and the short infinitive of the light verb (کرد). This gives us آزمایش خواهند کرد.
I see that آزمایشگاه (laboratory) looks a lot like the verb آزمایش کردن (to test). How are they connected?
They share the core noun آزمایش, which means test or experiment. The suffix ـگاه means place of. When you add it to آزمایش, you get a word that literally means place of testing, which is a laboratory.
Why does the specific object marker را come after the adjective جدید rather than right after the noun واکسن?
The word را always attaches to the end of the entire noun phrase that acts as the direct object. Because the specific object here is the whole phrase the new vaccine (واکسن جدید), the marker را must wait until after the adjective to show up.
Why is the plural of scientist دانشمندان instead of using the normal plural ending to make دانشمندها?
Both are actually correct! While the suffix ـها is the standard way to make almost any noun plural, the suffix is a special, slightly more formal ending used only for people and living things. Since scientists are people, is a very natural choice.
