Questions & Answers about قرار است که دانشآموزان ناموفق بیشتر تمرین کنند.
What does the prefix nâ- do in the word nâmovaffagh?
It negates the adjective! Movaffagh means "successful," so adding the prefix nâ- turns it into "unsuccessful." You can use nâ- with many adjectives to create their opposite, similar to "un-" or "in-" in English (like nâdorost for incorrect, or nâma'lum for unknown).
How does gharâr ast ke translate to "are supposed to"?
The word gharâr broadly means a plan, agreement, or appointment. Literally, gharâr ast ke means "The plan or agreement is that..." Farsi uses this set phrase as the standard way to say someone "is supposed to" or "is scheduled to" do something.
Why is the verb at the end konand and not the regular present tense mikonand?
Because of the phrase gharâr ast ke at the beginning. In Farsi, phrases that express a plan, desire, or obligation require the following verb to be in the subjunctive mood. So, the regular present tense tamrin mikonand (they practice) changes to the subjunctive tamrin konand.
How is the word dânesh-âmuzân (students) formed?
It is a compound noun made of three parts: dânesh (knowledge) + âmuz (the present stem of the verb to learn/teach) + -ân (the plural suffix used for people). So it literally translates to "knowledge-learners." Don't forget that it connects to the adjective with an ezâfe, so the phrase is pronounced dânesh-âmuzân-e nâmovaffagh.
