Questions & Answers about امیدواریم که این دگرگونی رو به ترقی برود.
The current lesson focuses on رو به with a copula (like است). Why does this sentence use برود instead?
While you will very often see رو به paired with an abstract noun and a "to be" verb (e.g., رو به ترقی است meaning "it is progressing"), using a verb of motion like رفتن (to go) puts more emphasis on the active trajectory. Here, رو به ترقی برود literally means "goes facing progress" or "heads towards progress."
Why is the final verb برود in the subjunctive mood rather than the indicative میرود?
The subjunctive mood here is triggered by the main verb امیدواریم (we hope). Just like with verbs of wishing, wanting, or necessity, expressing a hope for a specific outcome requires the verb in the dependent که clause to take the subjunctive form.
How is the noun دگرگونی (degarguni) formed?
It is built from the word دگرگون (degargun), an adjective meaning "transformed" or "altered." By adding the common noun-forming suffix ـی (-i) to the end of it, it becomes the abstract noun دگرگونی (transformation).
Are there specific types of nouns that usually follow رو به to show a trend?
Yes, رو به is extremely productive when paired with abstract nouns representing growth, decline, or change. Besides ترقی (progress), you will frequently see it with words like بهبود (improvement), افزایش (increase), کاهش (decrease), or زوال (decline).
