Questions & Answers about با این پروژه، شهر رو به ترقی و نوسازی است.
How does the رو به construction work here to show a trend?
The phrase رو به literally means facing or face to. When combined with an abstract noun like ترقی and a copula like است, it creates a trajectory construction showing that the subject is actively in the process of moving towards that state.
Does the رو به apply to both nouns connected by و?
Yes, the effect of رو به carries over the conjunction و. The city is heading towards both ترقی and نوسازی. You do not need to repeat the trend marker before the second abstract noun.
How is the word نوسازی formed?
It is a compound verbal noun made of نو (new) and سازی (making or building). The suffix سازی comes from the present stem of the verb ساختن (to build). Together, they literally mean new-making, which translates to renovation or modernization.
Why use this construction instead of a present continuous verb like دارد ترقی می کند?
While a present continuous verb also shows an ongoing action, the رو به plus abstract noun pattern is highly preferred in formal or written Farsi to describe gradual, overarching trends. It sounds much more professional and elegant for discussing societal or urban development.
