Questions & Answers about بعد از اینکه فاجعه رخ داد، آنها اطلاعات بیشتری در مورد حادثه منتشر کردند.
Why is the verb رخ داد (occurred) in the simple past tense after بعد از اینکه?
Because the event already happened. When talking about a completed past action, بعد از اینکه (after) is followed by a regular indicative past tense, like the simple past or past perfect. We only use the subjunctive mood after بعد از اینکه when we are talking about an action that hasn't happened yet (the future).
Why is there an extra ی at the end of بیشتری (bishtari)?
This is the indefinite ی (meaning "a" or "some"). The core phrase is اطلاعاتِ بیشتر (more information), connected by the hidden ezafe sound. When you want to say "some more information", the indefinite ی attaches to the very end of the noun phrase, directly onto the adjective, creating اطلاعاتِ بیشتری.
How does در مورد translate to "about"?
در مورد (dar mored-e) is a very common compound preposition that literally means "in the case of" or "in the matter of". It is used interchangeably with درباره to mean "about" or "regarding". Remember that it needs an ezafe to link it to the noun that follows, making it sound like "dar mored-e hadese".
Are رخ داد and منتشر کردند both compound verbs? How do they work here?
Yes, they are! رخ دادن (to occur) combines رخ (face) and دادن (to give). منتشر کردن combines منتشر (published) and کردن (to do/make). In Farsi compound verbs, only the second word changes to show the tense and subject. Here, we see the simple past forms: داد ("it gave") and کردند ("they did"), while the first words stay exactly the same.
