Questions & Answers about من میگم که به همون نمایشگاه میرم.
Why does the sentence use hamun instead of hamân for 'that very'?
hamun is the everyday spoken form of hamân. In colloquial Farsi, the 'ân' sound often changes to 'un' before the consonants 'm' or 'n'. Because the verbs here are in their spoken forms, it is natural to use the spoken form hamun.
Would hamun change if we were talking about 'those very exhibitions' in the plural?
No. Just like regular demonstrative adjectives, the emphatic forms hamin and hamân (or hamun) do not change when placed before a plural noun. You would simply make the noun plural: hamun namâyeshgâh-hâ.
What are the formal, written versions of the verbs migam and miram?
The formal versions are mi-guyam (I say) and mi-ravam (I go). In daily conversation, these are almost always shortened to migam and miram.
Is it possible to drop the preposition be (to) in this sentence?
Yes! In conversational Farsi, the preposition be indicating direction is very frequently dropped. It is perfectly natural to just say hamun namâyeshgâh miram without it.
