من امروز روزنامه را خوانده ام و آن را به برادرم داده ام.

Yes. In Persian, the subject pronoun is often omitted because the verb ending already shows the person.

• خوانده‌ام = I have read
• داده‌ام = I have given

So this sentence could also be:

امروز روزنامه را خوانده‌ام و آن را به برادرم داده‌ام.

Including من is still correct. It can add:

• emphasis
• contrast
• extra clarity

So من here is optional, not required.

را is the direct object marker. It shows which noun is receiving the action of the verb.

In this sentence:

• روزنامه را = the newspaper as the object of خوانده‌ام
• آن را = it as the object of داده‌ام

It usually does not have a direct English translation. It is more like a grammar marker.

A very common rule for learners:

• specific/definite direct objects often take را
• nonspecific/indefinite ones often do not

So:

• روزنامه را خوانده‌ام = I have read the newspaper
• روزنامه‌ای خوانده‌ام = I have read a newspaper

Persian usually prefers Subject – Object – Verb order, while English usually uses Subject – Verb – Object.

So English says:

• I have read the newspaper

But Persian says, more literally:

• I today the newspaper read-have

That is why the verb comes at the end of each clause:

• من امروز روزنامه را خوانده‌ام
• آن را به برادرم داده‌ام

This verb-final pattern is one of the most important differences between English and Persian.

خوانده‌ام is the present perfect form of خواندن = to read.

It is built from:

• past participle: خوانده = read
• personal ending/auxiliary part: ام = I have

So:

• خوانده‌ام = I have read

This is the same pattern you see in:

• داده‌ام = I have given
• رفته‌ام = I have gone
• دیده‌ام = I have seen

So the structure is basically:

past participle + personal ending

The standard spelling is usually:

• خوانده‌ام
• داده‌ام

with a half-space (called نیم‌فاصله) before the ending.

However, many texts—especially informal typing—write it with a full space:

• خوانده ام
• داده ام

So the sentence you saw is understandable and common in casual writing, but in careful modern Persian spelling, خوانده‌ام and داده‌ام are usually preferred.

The infinitive is دادن = to give.

To make the present perfect:

1. take the past participle: داده
2. add the first-person singular ending: ام

So:

• داده‌ام = I have given

This is the same pattern as many other verbs:

• کردن → کرده‌ام
• خوردن → خورده‌ام
• نوشتن → نوشته‌ام

Here آن means that/it, referring back to روزنامه.

So:

• آن را = it

In formal written Persian, this is a normal way to refer to a previously mentioned thing.

A few useful notes:

• آن is often used for things
• او usually means he/she, not it
• in colloquial Persian, you often hear اونو instead of آن را

So the formal written sentence has:

• آن را به برادرم داده‌ام

A more conversational version might sound like:

• اونو به برادرم داده‌ام

Sometimes yes, if the meaning is already very clear.

For example, Persian speakers might say:

من امروز روزنامه را خوانده‌ام و به برادرم داده‌ام.

This can still be understood as I have read the newspaper today and given it to my brother.

But keeping آن را makes the sentence clearer and more explicit. It is especially common in careful or formal writing.

برادرم is made of:

• برادر = brother
• م = my

So:

• برادرم = my brother

This -م is a possessive ending attached directly to the noun.

Other examples:

• کتابم = my book
• دوستم = my friend
• پدرم = my father

You can also say برادرِ من, but برادرم is shorter and very natural.

Because به means to, and with the verb دادن you usually give something to someone.

So:

• آن را به برادرم داده‌ام = I have given it to my brother

This is a very common Persian pattern:

• چیزی را به کسی دادن = to give something to someone

Examples:

• کتاب را به دوستم دادم = I gave the book to my friend
• پول را به او داد = He/She gave the money to him/her

Its position is flexible, though some placements sound more natural than others.

Your sentence has:

• من امروز روزنامه را خوانده‌ام...

That is completely natural.

You could also say:

• امروز من روزنامه را خوانده‌ام...
• روزنامه را امروز خوانده‌ام...

Changing the position usually changes emphasis more than basic meaning.

For a learner, the safest neutral placement is often:

• after the subject
• or at the beginning of the sentence

No, it does not need to be repeated.

Both verbs already show the same subject:

• خوانده‌ام = I have read
• داده‌ام = I have given

Once the subject is clear, Persian usually does not repeat it unnecessarily.

So this is normal:

• من امروز روزنامه را خوانده‌ام و آن را به برادرم داده‌ام

Repeating من in the second clause would usually sound unnecessary unless you want strong emphasis.

Yes, in many contexts it would.

You could say:

من امروز روزنامه را خواندم و آن را به برادرم دادم.

That means roughly:

• I read the newspaper today and gave it to my brother

The difference is:

• خوانده‌ام / داده‌ام = present perfect, often with a sense of completed action relevant now
• خواندم / دادم = simple past

In modern spoken Persian, especially colloquial Iranian Persian, the simple past is often used where English might prefer the present perfect. So learners will hear both patterns.

That means:

• خوانده‌ام / داده‌ام is grammatically correct and clear
• خواندم / دادم may sound more natural in everyday speech, depending on context
