Questions & Answers about آیا سلولها را در بدن آزمایش خواهند کرد؟
How is the future tense formed for the compound verb "to test" here?
The infinitive verb "to test" is آزمایش کردن. To make it future tense, the compound verb is split into three parts: the noun part (آزمایش), the future helper verb (خواهند for "they will"), and the past stem of the doing verb (کرد). The helper verb is always sandwiched right in the middle!
Why does the sentence end with کرد (which usually means "did") if it is talking about the future?
In Farsi, the future tense always uses the short infinitive of the main verb, which happens to look exactly like the simple past stem. The future meaning comes entirely from the helper verb خواهند. So, even though خواهند کرد looks a bit like "they will + did", it is the standard way to say "they will do."
Where is the word for "they" in this sentence?
The pronoun "they" is built right into the verb. The helper verb خواهند ends with ـند, which is the personal ending for "they". Because the verb already tells us who is doing the action, the separate pronoun آنها (they) is optional and was dropped here to sound more natural.
Why do we need the word را after سلولها (cells)?
را is the definite direct object marker. It is used to show that the action is happening to specific items. Because the sentence asks about testing "the cells" (specific ones) rather than just "cells" in general, we must put را right after سلولها.
