از بین بردن in 30 Sekunden
- A common Persian compound verb meaning 'to destroy' or 'to eliminate'.
- Formed from 'az' (from), 'beyn' (midst), and 'bordan' (to take).
- Used for physical objects, abstract concepts, and medical/scientific contexts.
- Requires the direct object marker 'râ' and conjugates based on the stem 'bar'.
The Persian verb از بین بردن is a multifaceted compound verb that translates most directly to "to destroy," "to eliminate," or "to eradicate." At its linguistic core, it is composed of three parts: the preposition az (from), the noun beyn (middle/between/midst), and the light verb bordan (to carry/take). Literally, it suggests the act of "taking something out from the middle of existence." This spatial metaphor is powerful in Persian; when you take something out of the 'between' or the 'midst' of the world, it ceases to be. It is used in contexts ranging from the physical destruction of a building to the abstract elimination of a feeling or a social problem like poverty.
- Physical Destruction
- When referring to tangible objects, this verb implies complete ruin. For example, a fire can az beyn bordan a forest, or a flood can destroy a bridge. It is often more comprehensive than 'shekastan' (to break), as it implies the object is no longer functional or present.
- Abstract Eradication
- In social or medical contexts, it is the standard word for 'eradicating' diseases or 'eliminating' social ills. Doctors talk about az beyn bordan bacteria, while politicians talk about az beyn bordan unemployment.
- Emotional and Temporal Usage
- Metaphorically, it can describe the loss of time, hope, or trust. If someone's behavior 'takes away' your confidence, this is the verb you use. It carries a weight of finality that other verbs lack.
سیل تمام پلها را از بین برد.
The flood destroyed all the bridges.
One of the most interesting aspects of از بین بردن is its versatility across different registers. While it is perfectly at home in a scientific journal describing the effect of heat on DNA, it is equally common in a casual conversation about someone 'ruining' a surprise. However, learners should be careful: because it is a compound verb, the 'az beyn' part stays fixed while the 'bordan' part conjugates. If you want to say 'it is being destroyed' (passive), you change 'bordan' (to take) to 'raftan' (to go), resulting in az beyn raftan. This distinction between the active 'destroying' and the passive 'vanishing/being destroyed' is crucial for B1 learners to master.
ما باید فقر را در جامعه از بین ببریم.
We must eliminate poverty in society.
Furthermore, the verb is frequently used in forensic and legal contexts. To 'destroy evidence' is az beyn bordan-e madarek. Here, the verb implies an intentional act of making something unrecoverable. Unlike 'gom kardan' (to lose), which might be accidental, az beyn bordan usually suggests a decisive action or a powerful natural force. Understanding this verb opens up the ability to discuss complex topics like environmental conservation (destroying habitats), medicine (killing viruses), and personal relationships (destroying trust).
Using از بین بردن correctly requires an understanding of Persian compound verb syntax. The object of the destruction usually takes the 'râ' (را) marker because it is typically a specific entity being eliminated. The verb phrase 'az beyn' functions as a prefix that remains static, while the verb 'bordan' (to carry/take) carries all the grammatical markers for tense, person, and mood.
- Present Tense Construction
- In the present tense, the stem of 'bordan' is 'bar'. To say 'I destroy,' you say az beyn mi-bar-am. Note how the 'mi-' prefix attaches to the 'bar' stem, not to 'az beyn'.
- Past Tense Construction
- The past stem is 'bord'. To say 'They destroyed,' you say az beyn bord-and. This is the form used for completed actions in the past.
- Subjunctive and Imperative
- For the imperative (Command), use the 'be-' prefix: az beyn be-bar (Destroy!). In the subjunctive (e.g., 'I want to destroy'), it becomes be-bar-am.
آنتیبیوتیک عفونت را از بین میبرد.
The antibiotic destroys the infection.
When constructing sentences, pay attention to the placement of the direct object. Because az beyn bordan is a transitive verb, it almost always demands a direct object. In Persian, the word order is typically Subject - Object + râ - Verb. For example: 'The storm (Subject) the houses (Object + râ) destroyed (Verb)'. This would be: Tufân khâne-hâ râ az beyn bord.
او تمام نامهها را از بین برده است.
He has destroyed all the letters (Present Perfect).
In more complex sentences, you can use this verb with modals. For instance, 'We must destroy the evidence' becomes Mâ bâyad madârek râ az beyn bebarim. Here, the 'bâyad' (must) triggers the subjunctive form of the verb. Similarly, with 'tavânestan' (can), you would say Mi-tavânam in moshkel râ az beyn bebaram (I can eliminate this problem). Mastering these patterns allows you to express necessity, ability, and desire regarding the elimination of things.
You will encounter از بین بردن in a variety of real-world Persian settings. It is one of those high-frequency verbs that bridges the gap between everyday speech and formal media. If you watch the Persian news (like BBC Persian or VOA Persian), you will hear this word almost daily in reports about conflict, natural disasters, or government policies.
- The Evening News
- News anchors use it to describe the impact of wars or economic crises. You might hear: "The sanctions have az beyn bord many small businesses." It conveys a sense of serious, large-scale impact.
- Health and Hygiene
- In television commercials for soap, bleach, or toothpaste, advertisers promise that their product will az beyn bordan 99% of germs (jarâsim) or stains (lakke-hâ). In a doctor's office, a physician might explain how a treatment will eliminate a tumor or infection.
- Environmental Activism
- Environmentalists in Iran and across the Persian-speaking world use this verb to talk about the destruction of the environment (mohit-e zist) or the drying up of lakes like Lake Urmia. It is a key word in the vocabulary of conservation.
این شوینده لکهها را کاملاً از بین میبرد.
This detergent eliminates stains completely.
In domestic settings, you might hear a parent telling a child not to 'az beyn bordan' their toys (though 'kharab kardan' is more common for physical breaking by children). In the workplace, it is used for 'deleting' files or 'nullifying' contracts. If you are in a courtroom or watching a legal drama, the phrase 'az beyn bordan-e asar-e jorm' (eliminating the traces of the crime) is a standard legal expression. Its ubiquity makes it an essential tool for any learner who wants to understand both the physical and conceptual ways things end in Persian culture.
While از بین بردن is a standard verb, learners often stumble over its specific nuances and grammatical structure. One of the most common errors is confusing the active and passive forms. As mentioned, az beyn bordan means 'to destroy' (someone does it), while az beyn raftan means 'to be destroyed' or 'to vanish' (it happens to the object).
- Active vs. Passive Confusion
- Mistake: Pol az beyn bord (The bridge destroyed). Correct: Pol az beyn raft (The bridge was destroyed/vanished). Use 'bordan' only when there is an agent performing the destruction.
- Overuse for Small Objects
- Learners often use this verb when they should use 'shekastan' (to break) or 'kharab kardan' (to ruin/spoil). If you drop a glass, you 'shekastan' it. If you ruin a meal, you 'kharab' it. Use az beyn bordan for more total or abstract elimination.
- Misplacing the 'Mi-' Prefix
- A common grammatical error is saying mi-az beyn baram. In Persian compound verbs, the 'mi-' (present continuous marker) always goes right before the light verb stem: az beyn mi-baram.
غلط: او اعتماد من را خراب کرد.
درست: او اعتماد من را از بین برد.
Note: While 'kharab kardan' is understood, 'az beyn bordan' is much more natural for 'destroying trust'.
Another subtle mistake is the confusion between az beyn bordan and nâbud kardan. While they are often interchangeable, nâbud kardan (annihilate) is much more intense and often used in military or sci-fi contexts. Using nâbud kardan for a simple coffee stain might sound overly dramatic to a native speaker. Stick to az beyn bordan for everyday 'elimination' and 'destruction'. Finally, remember the object marker 'râ'. Because this verb usually targets something specific, forgetting 'râ' is a frequent B1-level error.
Persian is rich with verbs describing various forms of destruction. Choosing the right one depends on the intensity, the object, and the result of the action. Below is a comparison of از بین بردن with its closest relatives.
- نابود کردن (Nâbud Kardan)
Difference: Much stronger than 'az beyn bordan'. It means 'to annihilate' or 'to bring to nothingness' (nâ-bud). Use it for total destruction, like an army destroying a city or a black hole destroying a planet.
Example: ارتش دشمن شهر را نابود کرد (The enemy army annihilated the city).
- تخریب کردن (Takhrib Kardan)
Difference: Specifically refers to the demolition of structures, buildings, or organizations. It has a more 'architectural' or 'systemic' feel. It comes from the Arabic root for 'ruin'.
Example: آنها ساختمان قدیمی را تخریب کردند (They demolished the old building).
- محو کردن (Mahv Kardan)
Difference: Means 'to erase' or 'to blur out'. Use it for things that disappear from sight, like erasing a pencil mark or a memory fading away.
Example: او نام مرا از لیست محو کرد (He erased my name from the list).
- خراب کردن (Kharâb Kardan)
Difference: The most common colloquial word. It means 'to ruin', 'to break', or 'to mess up'. It's used for a broken watch, a ruined cake, or a spoiled plan.
Example: تو سورپرایز مرا خراب کردی (You ruined my surprise).
Comparison Summary:
1. از بین بردن: General elimination (bacteria, poverty, trust).
2. نابود کردن: Total annihilation (war, extinction).
3. تخریب کردن: Structural demolition (buildings, systems).
4. محو کردن: Visual erasure (marks, memories).
5. خراب کردن: Everyday ruining (plans, machines).
When talking about 'killing' living things like pests or weeds, you can also use koshtan (to kill), but az beyn bordan sounds more professional and less violent. For example, a gardener would say they want to az beyn bordan the weeds (alaf-hâ-ye harz) rather than 'kill' them. This nuance of 'removing from the midst' makes it the preferred term in scientific and agricultural contexts.
How Formal Is It?

- Mispronouncing the 'r' as a guttural French 'r'. In Persian, it is a tap or flap.
- Vocalizing the 'n' in 'beyn' too weakly.
- Failing to connect 'az' and 'beyn' smoothly in fast speech.

Summary
The verb 'az beyn bordan' is the most versatile way to express 'destruction' or 'eradication' in Persian. Whether you are talking about destroying a letter (physical) or eliminating poverty (abstract), this verb is your primary tool. Example: 'Mâ bâyad fagr râ az beyn bebarim' (We must eliminate poverty).
- A common Persian compound verb meaning 'to destroy' or 'to eliminate'.
- Formed from 'az' (from), 'beyn' (midst), and 'bordan' (to take).
- Used for physical objects, abstract concepts, and medical/scientific contexts.
- Requires the direct object marker 'râ' and conjugates based on the stem 'bar'.
Conjugate the Light Verb
Remember that only 'bordan' changes. 'Az beyn' is like a rock; it never changes its form.
Choose for Eradication
When you want to say 'eliminate' a problem, 'az beyn bordan' is almost always the best choice.
Medical Contexts
Use this verb when talking about killing germs or viruses to sound more professional than 'koshtan'.
Beyn vs. Bayn
In Persian, it is spelled بین. In some dialects, it sounds like 'bayn', but in standard Tehrani, it is 'beyn'.
