Questions & Answers about جهان بینهایت است، مگر اینکه جاذبه همه چیز را نابود کند.
Why is the verb nâbud konad (destroys) in the subjunctive form here?
It follows magar in-ke (unless). In Farsi, conjunctions that express conditions or uncertainty—like "unless", "so that", or "before"—require the following verb to be in the subjunctive mood, because the action hasn't actually happened.
How exactly does magar in-ke translate to "unless"?
Broken down literally, magar means "except", in means "this", and ke means "that". So magar in-ke translates literally to "except this that". It is the standard phrase for "unless" in Farsi.
How is the word bi-nahâyat (infinite) formed?
It uses the prefix bi-, which means "without" (similar to the English suffix "-less"). Nahâyat means "end" or "limit". So bi-nahâyat literally means "without end".
Why do we need the object marker râ after hame chiz (everything)?
The word râ marks the specific direct object of a sentence. While "everything" might feel like a broad concept in English, Farsi treats hame chiz as a definite group of items receiving the action of the verb, so it requires râ.
