Questions & Answers about ما در اینکه آنها پیروز میشوند تردید نداریم.
Why do we use dar in ke here instead of just the conjunction ke?
The compound verb tardid dâshtan (to have doubt) requires the preposition dar (in) when linking to an object. To link it to a full clause instead, Farsi uses in (this) as a bridge. So, dar in ke literally translates to 'in this fact, that'.
Expressions of doubt normally use the subjunctive. Why is mishavand in the indicative mood?
While expressing doubt does trigger the subjunctive, this sentence is negated (tardid nadârim meaning 'we have no doubt'). Negated doubt expresses absolute certainty. When you state a certain fact or guaranteed future event, Farsi uses the indicative mood.
The English translation says 'will win', but isn't mishavand present tense?
Yes, mishavand is the present indicative form of shodan (to become). In Farsi, it is extremely common to use the present tense to talk about future events, especially when you are confident they will happen. The formal future tense is mostly reserved for literary or highly formal contexts.
How does the verb piruz mishavand work?
It is a compound verb made of the adjective piruz (victorious) and mishavand (they become). Instead of a single verb for 'to win', Farsi commonly uses this compound, which literally means 'they become victorious'.
