I also explained adverbs in other posts. In this post; I start to discuss the case marking of present tense\/imperfect. Just like nouns and adjectives, verbs take special vowels and suffixes to mark their case. The choice of the appropriate case depends on what comes before the verb. Present tense\/imperfect verbs by default take short \/o\/ (<\/span><span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u0627\u0644\u0636\u0645\u0629<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">), and this case is called (<\/span><span dir=\"rtl\" style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0636\u0627\u0631\u0639 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0631\u0641\u0648\u0639<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">).
