Questions & Answers about این پنجمین عنوان است که آنها منتشر میکنند.
Why is it panjomin onvān instead of onvān-e panjom?
Both mean "the fifth title," but they use different structures. The word panjomin uses the -omin suffix, which means it must come before the noun (onvān) and does not take an Ezafe. This pre-nominal form is often used to add emphasis. If you used the -om suffix, it would follow the standard rule of coming after the noun with an Ezafe: onvān-e panjom.
How does the verb montasher mikonand work in this sentence?
It is a compound verb made of montasher (meaning "published" or "spread") and kardan (to do or make). Here, kardan is conjugated in the present tense for "they" (mikonand). Together, they literally mean "they make published," which translates to "they publish" or "they are publishing".
Why is mikonand translated as "are publishing" rather than "publish"?
The standard Farsi present tense with the mi- prefix covers both the simple present ("they publish") and the present continuous ("they are publishing"). Context decides the best English translation. Since this sentence is about an active, ongoing series of book or media releases, "are publishing" is the most natural fit in English.
Why do we need the word ke here? Can it be dropped like in English?
No, you cannot drop it in Farsi. In English, we often skip the word "that" and just say "the fifth title they are publishing". In Farsi, the relative pronoun ke (that/which) is strictly required to link the main clause to the action that describes the title.
