Questions & Answers about این مرکزهای تجاری افتتاح خواهند شد.
The lesson says the future passive uses a past participle, but eftetâh isn't a past participle. How does the passive work here?
Because eftetâh shodan (to be inaugurated) is a compound verb made of a noun plus shodan. When turning a compound verb into the future passive, you don't need a past participle. You just keep the noun part (eftetâh) exactly as it is, and conjugate the light verb (shodan) into the future tense.
Why is the verb plural (khâhand shod) when commercial centers are inanimate objects? Don't inanimate plurals usually take singular verbs?
Yes, inanimate plurals usually take singular verbs in everyday Farsi. However, in formal contexts or when talking about large, important entities like institutions and buildings, it is very common and grammatically correct to use a plural verb to give them more importance.
Why do we use in (this) instead of inhâ (these) at the beginning of the sentence?
When pointing words like in (this/these) and ân (that/those) are used directly before a noun as adjectives, they always stay in their singular form. Only the noun gets the plural ending, which is why we say in markaz-hâ (these centers).
Why is there a 'ye' sound between markaz-hâ and tejâri?
That is the ezâfe, which links the noun to its adjective. Because the plural marker -hâ ends in a vowel, the ezâfe takes the form of a 'y' sound (-ye) to smoothly connect it to the adjective tejâri (commercial).
