Questions & Answers about پروژهی تجاری تصویب خواهد شد، اگرچه دیروز نمیتوانستند آن را شروع کنند.
How is the future passive formed in tasvib khâhad shod?
To form the future passive of a compound verb like tasvib kardan (to approve), you drop kardan and replace it with the future tense of shodan. Here, the noun tasvib (approval) is paired with khâhad shod (will become / will be) to create tasvib khâhad shod (it will be approved).
Why is the verb shoru' konand in the present subjunctive when the sentence is talking about yesterday?
When using a modal verb like tavânestan (to be able to), only the modal verb changes to show the tense. Here, nemitavânestand is in the past continuous to mean 'they couldn't'. The main verb that follows must always be in the present subjunctive, which is why we use shoru' konand regardless of the fact that it happened yesterday.
Why is ân râ placed between the modal verb and the subjunctive verb?
In Farsi, the direct object ân râ (it) typically goes right before the specific verb it belongs to. Since 'it' is what they are starting, placing it immediately before shoru' konand sounds the most natural.
Why is there an extra 'ye' sound in prozhe-ye tejâri?
This is a quick reminder of the ezafe rule. The noun prozhe (project) is being described by the adjective tejâri (commercial). Because prozhe ends in a silent 'h' (pronounced as 'e'), the linking ezafe requires a 'y' sound, which is why we say prozhe-ye.
