Questions & Answers about مجروحین به بیمارستان آورده میشوند.
Why does majrooh take the plural suffix -in here instead of the standard Farsi -ha or -an?
The word majrooh (injured) is an Arabic loanword. In formal Farsi, Arabic loanwords that refer to people often take the Arabic plural suffix -in. While you could use the native Farsi animate suffix -an, -in is extremely common in news, legal, and official contexts for specific words like this.
Is majroohin used in everyday conversation, or is it strictly formal?
It is quite formal and belongs to a higher register. In everyday spoken Farsi, you would almost certainly hear majrooh-ha. You will encounter majroohin mostly in news broadcasts, newspaper articles, and hospital announcements.
Since majroohin is plural, does the verb strictly have to be plural here?
Yes, the verb must be plural (mishavand). While Farsi often allows singular verbs for plural inanimate objects, majroohin refers to living people. For animate plural subjects, the verb must strictly agree in number.
How exactly is the passive verb avarde mishavand constructed here?
Farsi forms the passive voice by combining the past participle of the main verb with a conjugated form of the auxiliary verb shodan (to become). Here, we have the past participle avarde (brought) followed by the present tense mishavand (they become). Literally, it translates to they become brought.
