Questions & Answers about امیدوارم که امروز اقیانوس تاریک را به اندازهی کافی جستجو کنیم.
How does the phrase be andâze-ye kâfi work in this sentence?
In this sentence, be andâze-ye kâfi (which literally means "to a sufficient measure") is used to modify the verb jostoju konim (we search). It tells us that the action of searching will be done "enough".
Where should I place be andâze-ye kâfi when it modifies a verb like it does here?
When modifying a verb, be andâze-ye kâfi usually goes right before the verb it describes. Here, it sits immediately before the compound verb jostoju konim (we search) to form the most natural word order.
Why is the verb jostoju konim (we search) in the subjunctive form instead of the regular present tense?
The sentence begins with omidvâram ke (I hope that). In Farsi, expressing a hope, wish, or desire requires the following verb to be in the subjunctive mood, because the action isn't a guaranteed fact yet. That is why we use konim instead of the regular present tense mikonim.
Why does the direct object marker râ come after târik (dark) rather than oqyânus (ocean)?
The marker râ must follow the entire phrase that makes up the specific direct object. Because the object here is "the dark ocean" (oqyânus-e târik), râ attaches to the very end of that complete phrase, right after the adjective.
