Questions & Answers about امروز وقت ندارم، ولی فردا در آزمایشگاه تحقیق خواهم کرد.
How does the future tense work with the compound verb تحقیق کردن here?
The helper verb for the future tense steps right inside the compound verb! The non-verbal part (تحقیق) comes first, followed by the conjugated helper verb (خواهم for I will), and finally the verbal part (کرد).
Why is the final word کرد and not کردن or کردم?
When forming the formal future tense, the main verb always takes the form of the short infinitive, which is just the full infinitive without the final ن. The helper verb (خواهم) takes care of showing who is doing the action, so کرد stays exactly the same no matter who is speaking.
How is the word for laboratory, آزمایشگاه, built?
It is made of the word آزمایش (test or experiment) and the suffix گاه (place of). Together, they literally mean place of testing. You will see گاه attached to many words at this level to create locations.
Would a native speaker use تحقیق خواهم کرد in a casual chat with friends?
Usually, no. This specific future tense structure is quite formal and mostly used in writing, news, or speeches. In everyday conversation, a native speaker would likely just use the present tense verb with a future time word like فردا to get the meaning.
