Questions & Answers about هیچ شواهدی مبنی بر اینکه طوفان سهمگین به منطقه ساحلی میرسد وجود ندارد.
How does mabni bar in ke function in this sentence, and could I use hâki az in ke instead?
mabni bar in ke translates to "based on the fact that" or "indicating that." It acts as a formal bridge to introduce the specific content of a noun like "evidence," "report," or "statement." You could absolutely use hâki az in ke here instead; they are both formal reporting phrases and are fully interchangeable in this context.
Why does shavâhed (evidence) have an -i at the end making it shavâhed-i?
In Farsi, when using hich (no/any) with a noun in a negative sentence, it is very common to add the indefinite suffix -i to the noun. It adds emphasis, giving the feeling of "not a single piece of evidence" or "no evidence whatsoever."
shavâhed is a plural word (the Arabic broken plural of shâhed). Why is the verb nadârad at the end singular?
In Farsi grammar, when the subject of a sentence is a plural inanimate object or concept (like "pieces of evidence"), the verb is typically singular. Because evidence is not a living being, vojud nadârad (does not exist) remains in the singular form.
The English translation says the storm "will reach", but mi-rasad is the present tense. Why wasn't the future tense (khâhad resid) used?
While you could technically use the formal future tense here, Farsi speakers frequently use the present indicative (mi-rasad) to talk about future events that are predicted, expected, or viewed as a certainty. Inside a subordinate clause like this one (coming after mabni bar in ke), the present tense is heavily preferred and sounds much more natural.
