Questions & Answers about من کارکرد این سیستم را ارزیابی میکنم.
The translation says "I will evaluate", but the verb ارزیابی میکنم is in the present tense. Why isn't the formal future tense used here?
In Persian, it is extremely common to use the present indicative (prefix می + present stem) to express future actions, especially for concrete plans or near-future events. While the formal future tense (ارزیابی خواهم کرد) is grammatically correct, using the present tense is much more natural in everyday usage, similar to saying "I am evaluating it tomorrow" in English.
How is the noun کارکرد (performance) formed, and how does it relate to this lesson's topic?
It is a compound noun made of کار (work) and کرد (the past stem of کردن, to do). While your current lesson focuses on adding the suffix -ار to past stems (like رفتار or گفتار), combining a noun directly with a bare past stem is another very common morphological pattern in Persian. It creates a noun showing the result or manifestation of an action—in this case, literally "work-done" or "performance."
What is the literal breakdown of the word ارزیابی (evaluation)?
It breaks down into ارز (value/worth, related to ارزش) + یاب (the present stem of یافتن, to find) + the noun-forming suffix -ی. Literally meaning "value-finding," it's the standard word for "evaluation" or "assessment." You simply add the light verb کردن to it to make the verb "to evaluate."
Why does the object marker را come after سیستم instead of directly after کارکرد?
