1In standard Persian (Fārsī), the unmarked basic word order of a simple declarative sentence is typically:
A.Subject–Object–Verb (SOV)
B.Subject–Verb–Object (SVO)
C.Verb–Subject–Object (VSO)
D.Object–Verb–Subject (OVS)
Explanation: Persian is a head-final language with typical SOV order: the subject comes first, the object next, and the conjugated verb last (e.g., man ketāb mi-khānam — 'I read a book').
2The Persian ezafe (izāfa, often shown as ـِ) is primarily used to:
A.Mark the past tense of every verb
B.Link a noun to a following adjective, possessor, or dependent noun
C.Convert nouns into passive verbs
D.Indicate the plural of all animate nouns only
Explanation: Ezafe (the short -e/-ye link) joins a noun to a following modifier or genitive dependent, as in ketāb-e bozorg ('big book') or dar-e khāneh ('door of the house').
3The phrase ketāb-e bozorg (کتابِ بزرگ) most accurately means:
A.Books that write
B.I write a book
C.The big book / a big book (book linked to 'big' by ezafe)
D.The book is not big
Explanation: Ketāb ('book') is linked by ezafe to bozorg ('big/great'), so the phrase means 'big book'. Context may make it definite or indefinite.
4The Persian specific (definite) direct-object marker is:
A.mi- (میـ)
B.be- (بـ)
C.hā (ها)
D.rā (را)
Explanation: Rā (را) marks a specific/definite direct object after the noun phrase (e.g., ketāb-rā khāndam — 'I read the book').
5In the sentence Ali ketāb-rā khānd ('Ali read the book'), the particle rā marks:
A.The specific direct object ketāb
B.The subject Ali
C.The past tense alone
D.A question word
Explanation: Rā attaches to the object phrase ketāb, signalling that 'the book' is a specific direct object of khānd ('read').
6The common imperfective / progressive verbal prefix in modern Persian is:
A.be- (بـ)
B.mi- (میـ)
C.na- (نـ)
D.rā (را)
Explanation: Mi- attaches to the present stem (and can also appear with past stems for habitual past) to form imperfective/progressive aspects, e.g., mi-ravam ('I go / I am going').
7The prefix commonly used to form the present subjunctive and many imperative forms in Persian is:
A.mi- (میـ)
B.rā (را)
C.be- (بـ)
D.hā (ها)
Explanation: Be- (بـ) attaches to the present stem for positive imperative (be-ro 'go!') and for many present subjunctive forms (be-ravam 'that I go').
8Negation of a finite Persian verb is most commonly marked with the prefix:
A.mi- (میـ)
B.be- (بـ)
C.ye- (یـ)
D.na- / ne- (نـ)
Explanation: Persian finite verbs are typically negated with na- (often ne- before mi-), e.g., na-raftam ('I did not go'), ne-mi-ravam ('I do not go').
9Persian verbs are traditionally built from which two principal stems?
A.Present stem (mozāreʿ) and past stem (māzi)
B.Only an infinitive stem with no past form
C.Active and passive participles only
D.Masculine and feminine stems
Explanation: Each Persian verb has a present stem and a past stem. Person endings attach to these stems; the infinitive ends in -an (e.g., raftan).
10From the infinitive raftan (رفتن, 'to go'), the past stem is:
A.rav-
B.raft-
C.be-ro-
D.mi-rav-
Explanation: The past stem of raftan is raft- (e.g., raftam 'I went'). The present stem is irregular: rav- (mi-ravam 'I go').
