Hello! Can you please help me with the Persian verb فكر ميكنم / فكر نميكنم Does this verb require subjunctive for the second verb that follows it ( باشد instead of است)? Or, does only the negative form of this verb require subjunctive, or is that just a difference between written and conversational Persian. I am trying to translate the following sentences: 1. “I don’t think that’s correct”. ( a). فكر نميكنم كه آن دست باشد or is it better to say (b) فكر نميكنم كه آن درست است 2. “ I think that’s correct”. ( a) فكر ميكنم كه آن درست است or is it better to say (b) فكر ميكنم كه آن درست باشد 3. “I think they are right”. ( فكر ميكنم كه درست/راست ميگويند. ) Thank you very much in advance for any help !

Hello, could you please help me translate to Persian the sentence: “ What does s/he want to do this weekend? This weekend s/he wants to go to the movies”. Is it 1. او ميخواهد اين آخر هفته چه كار كند؟ًاو ميخواهد اين أخر هفته به سينما برود or 2. او اين آخر هفته ميخواهد چه كار كند؟ او اين آخر هفته ميخواهد به سينما برود I cannot tell if placing /meekhaad/ in the beginning of the sentence sounds more natural.
