Questions & Answers about به فرض اینکه آنها جریان زمان را مختل کنند، کل دنیا از بین میرود.
How does the phrase be farz-e in ke affect the verb in the first part of the sentence?
It requires the verb to be in the present subjunctive form. Here, it changes the compound verb mokhtal kardan (to disrupt) into mokhtal konand. We use the subjunctive because 'assuming that' creates a hypothetical, unrealized situation.
Since the translation says 'the whole world will be destroyed,' why isn't the final verb in the future tense?
The verb az beyn miravad is in the present indicative. In Farsi conditional statements, it is very common to use the present indicative for the result clause to show that the outcome is a definite, unavoidable fact if the condition is met.
What does the compound verb az beyn miravad literally mean?
It comes from the infinitive az beyn raftan, which literally translates to 'to go from between.' This is the standard Farsi idiom meaning 'to be destroyed,' 'to perish,' or 'to vanish.'
Why does the object marker ra come directly after the word zaman?
The specific direct object of the verb 'disrupt' is the entire phrase jaryan-e zaman (the flow of time). The marker ra always attaches to the very end of the noun phrase it applies to, not just the head noun.
