A1 verb #500 가장 일반적인 10분 분량

شروع کردن

shoru kardan 상위 500

At the A1 level, 'shoru' kardan' is one of the most essential verbs you will learn. It allows you to describe the beginning of your daily activities. You will primarily use it in the simple past and present tenses to say things like 'I started my homework' or 'I start work at 8'. The focus at this level is on the basic compound structure: Noun (shoru') + Light Verb (kardan). You should learn to conjugate 'kardan' in the present (mikonam, mikoni, mikonad...) and past (kardam, kardi, kard...). A key goal is to remember that 'shoru'' does not change, and the verb usually comes at the very end of your sentence. You will also learn the common phrase 'shoru' be...' (start to...) followed by a simple noun like 'ghazā' (food) or 'dars' (lesson). This level is about building the foundation of intentional action.

At the A2 level, you expand your use of 'shoru' kardan' to include more complex sentence structures and a wider range of objects. You will start using it with the preposition 'be' followed by infinitives (e.g., 'shoru' be khāndan kard' - he started to read). You will also begin to distinguish between 'shoru' kardan' (active) and 'shoru' shodan' (passive/intransitive), which is a major milestone in Persian proficiency. You'll use 'shoru' kardan' to talk about plans using the future-leaning present tense ('Fardā varzesh rā shoru' mikonam'). You will also encounter it in the imperative form ('shoru' kon!') and the negative form ('shoru' nakon!'). This level focuses on using the verb to describe sequences of events and more detailed personal routines.

At the B1 level, you move into more abstract and professional uses of 'shoru' kardan'. You will use it to discuss the initiation of projects, the start of historical periods, or the beginning of social movements. You will become comfortable using the verb in the subjunctive mood ('Mikhāham shoru' konam') and the perfect tenses ('Shoru' kard-e am' - I have started). You will also start to recognize and use synonyms like 'āghāz kardan' in more formal writing or reading contexts. Your ability to use 'shoru' kardan' with a variety of adverbs (e.g., 'dobāre' - again, 'be zudi' - soon, 'nāgahān' - suddenly) will increase, allowing for more descriptive storytelling. You will also learn to use it in conditional sentences ('Agar shoru' koni...' - If you start...).

At the B2 level, you use 'shoru' kardan' with nuance and stylistic awareness. You can differentiate between 'shoru' kardan', 'āghāz kardan', and more idiomatic expressions like 'kelid zadan' or 'rāh andākhtan'. You will use the verb in complex compound-complex sentences and understand its role in formal discourse, such as academic lectures or news reports. You will also be able to use the noun form 'shoru'' in various idiomatic expressions and as a subject or object in its own right (e.g., 'Shoru'-e khubi bud' - It was a good start). At this level, you are expected to have mastered the active/passive distinction ('kardan' vs 'shodan') perfectly and can use them interchangeably to shift focus in your narrative.

At the C1 level, your use of 'shoru' kardan' is indistinguishable from a native speaker's. You understand the subtle connotations of using this verb versus its more literary or technical counterparts. You can use it in highly formal writing, such as legal documents or philosophical essays, where the 'initiation' of a concept or process is discussed. You will also be familiar with classical Persian literature where the root 'shoru'' might appear in complex Arabic-derived constructions. You can discuss the 'shoru'' of abstract concepts like 'modernity' or 'enlightenment' with ease. Your mastery includes the ability to use the verb in various registers, from the most colloquial street slang to the most refined poetic language, knowing exactly when 'shoru' kardan' is the most effective choice.

At the C2 level, you possess a profound understanding of the historical and linguistic evolution of 'shoru' kardan'. You can analyze its usage in different Persian dialects (Tehrani, Dari, Tajik) and understand how the Arabic root 'shoru'' has been integrated into the Persian verbal system over centuries. You can use the verb to create sophisticated wordplay or to convey subtle irony. You are capable of translating complex English nuances of 'start', 'begin', 'commence', 'initiate', and 'launch' into the precise Persian equivalent, often using 'shoru' kardan' as a base for more complex expressions. Your command of the verb allows you to lead discussions, write professional critiques, and engage in high-level creative writing where the 'beginning' is a central theme.

연습하기 예시 노트와 팁

شروع کردن 30초 만에

The primary Persian verb for 'to start' or 'to begin'.
A compound verb consisting of 'shoru'' (start) and 'kardan' (to do).
Used in almost all contexts, from daily life to formal business.
Requires the preposition 'be' when followed by another action/infinitive.

The Persian verb شروع کردن (shoru' kardan) is the fundamental way to express the concept of beginning or starting an action, a process, or an event. It is a compound verb, a hallmark of Persian grammar, consisting of the noun shoru' (start/beginning), which is of Arabic origin, and the Persian light verb kardan (to do/to make). In the landscape of the Persian language, this verb is ubiquitous, serving as the primary tool for English speakers to translate 'to start' or 'to begin' across almost all contexts, from the mundane to the professional.

Daily Life Usage: In everyday conversation, you will hear this verb when people talk about starting their day, starting a meal, or starting a conversation. For example, 'Man dars rā shoru' kardam' (I started the lesson). It is the go-to verb for any intentional action that has a clear point of initiation.

بیا کار را شروع کنیم تا دیر نشده است. (Let's start the work before it gets late.)

Understanding the distinction between the active form شروع کردن and the passive/intransitive form شروع شدن is crucial for learners. While shoru' kardan implies an agent (someone starting something), shoru' shodan describes something starting on its own or the state of beginning. For instance, a movie 'shoru' mishavad' (starts), but a projectionist 'shoru' mikonad' (starts the movie). This nuance is vital for achieving natural-sounding Persian.

Professional Context: In business or academic settings, shoru' kardan is used to discuss the initiation of projects, semesters, or negotiations. It maintains a neutral to slightly formal tone, making it safe for almost any environment. While more literary synonyms like āghāz kardan exist, shoru' kardan remains the workhorse of the language.

او با لبخند صحبتش را شروع کرد. (He started his speech with a smile.)

Culturally, the concept of 'starting' is often associated with the phrase 'Bismillah' (In the name of God) in Persian-speaking societies. Even when using the secular verb shoru' kardan, the cultural weight of beginning a task with intention and focus is palpable. Whether you are starting a new journey or just a new sentence, this verb is your gateway to action in Persian.

Grammatical Structure: As a compound verb, only the 'kardan' part conjugates. The word 'shoru' remains static. This makes it relatively easy for beginners to master once they know the conjugation of 'kardan'. For example: 'shoru' mikonam' (I start), 'shoru' kardi' (you started), 'shoru' khāhand kard' (they will start).

ما باید از همین حالا تغییر را شروع کنیم. (We must start the change right now.)

کلاس ساعت هشت شروع می‌شود. (The class starts at eight - note the intransitive use here for comparison.)

Using شروع کردن correctly involves understanding its syntax and its relationship with objects. In Persian, the direct object of the verb usually takes the postposition rā if it is definite. For example, 'Man ketāb rā shoru' kardam' (I started the book). If the object is indefinite, rā is omitted: 'Man yek prozh-e shoru' kardam' (I started a project).

With Prepositions: A very common pattern is شروع کردن به (shoru' kardan be), which means 'to start to [do something]'. Here, the preposition be is followed by a noun or the infinitive of another verb. For example, 'shoru' be davidan kard' (He started to run/He started running).

بچه‌ها شروع به بازی کردند. (The children started to play.)

Another important aspect is the tense. In the present continuous, we use the auxiliary verb dāshtan. 'Dāram shoru' mikonam' (I am starting). In the past continuous, 'Dāshtam shoru' mikardam' (I was starting). These constructions are essential for describing ongoing actions at the moment of initiation.

Negation: To negate the verb, the prefix na- is attached to the light verb kardan. 'Shoru' nakardam' (I didn't start). In the present tense, it becomes nemi-: 'Shoru' nemikonam' (I don't start/I won't start).

چرا هنوز مطالعه را شروع نکرده‌ای؟ (Why haven't you started studying yet?)

When using the imperative form to tell someone to start, you use the present stem of kardan, which is kon. 'Shoru' kon!' (Start! - singular/informal) or 'Shoru' konid!' (Start! - plural/formal). This is frequently heard in classrooms, sports, and at the dinner table.

Future Tense: The formal future tense uses khāhad: 'Shoru' khāham kard' (I will start). However, in spoken Persian, the present simple is often used for the future: 'Fardā shoru' mikonam' (I'll start tomorrow).

او قصد دارد هفته آینده ورزش را شروع کند. (He intends to start exercising next week.)

Finally, consider the use of shoru' kardan in the subjunctive mood, which is used after verbs of wanting, necessity, or doubt. 'Mikhāham shoru' konam' (I want to start). The prefix be- is added to the present stem: 'shoru' bekonam'.

باید هر چه زودتر نوشتن را شروع کنی. (You must start writing as soon as possible.)

The verb شروع کردن is a staple of the Persian auditory landscape. You will encounter it in diverse settings, ranging from the high-energy environment of a Tehran bazaar to the quiet corridors of a university in Shiraz. Its frequency is high because it marks the inception of almost any human activity.

In Media and News: News anchors frequently use this verb when reporting on the commencement of summits, festivals, or military operations. 'Dowlat barname-ye jadid rā shoru' kard' (The government started the new program). In this context, it sounds professional and objective.

گزارشگر گفت: «بازی فینال دقایقی پیش شروع شد». (The reporter said: "The final game started a few minutes ago" - Note: often the reporter uses the intransitive 'shoru' shod' for events.)

In the world of Persian cinema and television, shoru' kardan is used in dialogue to signal shifts in the plot. Characters might say 'Dāstān az inja shoru' mishavad' (The story starts here) or 'Man dobāre shoru' mikonam' (I'll start over). It carries emotional weight when a character decides to start a new life or a new relationship.

In Education: Teachers and professors are perhaps the most frequent users of this verb. 'Dars rā shoru' mikonim' (We start the lesson) is the standard phrase to bring a classroom to order. Students also use it to discuss their study habits and exam preparations.

استاد: «لطفاً کتاب‌هایتان را باز کنید تا درس را شروع کنیم». (Professor: "Please open your books so we can start the lesson.")

In the tech world, Persian speakers use shoru' kardan when talking about starting an app, a computer, or a download. While 'run' or 'open' might have specific technical terms, 'shoru' kardan' is the general term for 'getting things going'. You'll see it on buttons in software localized for Persian speakers, often labeled simply as 'Shoru' (Start).

In Literature: Classical and modern Persian poetry and prose use this verb to mark the beginning of journeys, both physical and spiritual. Rumi or Hafez might use the more poetic 'āghāz', but modern novelists like Sadegh Hedayat frequently use 'shoru' kardan' to ground their narratives in realistic speech.

او سفر خود را از کوه‌های شمال شروع کرد. (He started his journey from the northern mountains.)

Learning شروع کردن involves navigating several common pitfalls that English speakers often encounter. Because the structure of Persian verbs differs significantly from English, these errors are natural but can be easily corrected with practice.

Confusing Active and Passive: The most frequent mistake is using shoru' kardan (active) when shoru' shodan (passive/intransitive) is required. English uses 'start' for both: 'The movie starts' and 'I start the movie'. In Persian, you must distinguish. Saying 'Film shoru' kard' implies the movie itself performed an action to start something else, which is incorrect. You must say 'Film shoru' shod'.

غلط: کلاس ساعت ۹ شروع کرد. (Wrong: The class started [active].)
درست: کلاس ساعت ۹ شروع شد. (Correct: The class started [intransitive].)

Another common error is the incorrect use of prepositions. English speakers often try to translate 'start with' literally. While bā (with) is used, the phrasing can be tricky. Also, the 'start to do' construction requires be, which learners often forget, simply placing two verbs together.

Light Verb Conjugation: Learners sometimes try to conjugate the noun part shoru'. Remember, shoru' is fixed. Only kardan changes. Incorrect: 'shoru'idam'. Correct: 'shoru' kardam'. This is a fundamental rule for all Persian compound verbs.

اشتباه: من شروعیدم به کار. (Mistake: I 'started-ed' to work.)
صحیح: من کار را شروع کردم. (Correct: I started the work.)

Finally, be careful with the word 'start' when referring to machinery. To 'start a car', Persian speakers usually say roshan kardan (to turn on/light up) or estārt zadan (to hit the starter). Using shoru' kardan for a car sounds unnatural.

Register Errors: Using āghāz kardan in a very casual setting with friends can sound overly poetic or stiff. Conversely, using estārt zadan in a formal essay is too slangy. Stick to shoru' kardan as your safe, middle-ground option.

او شروع کرد به گریه کردن. (He started to cry - Correct use of 'be' + infinitive.)

While شروع کردن is the most common way to say 'to start', Persian offers a rich palette of synonyms and related terms that can add precision and flavor to your speech. Choosing the right one depends on the register and the specific nature of the beginning.

آغاز کردن (Āghāz Kardan): This is the more formal, literary, and 'pure' Persian equivalent. You will find it in literature, formal speeches, and high-level journalism. It carries a sense of importance and grandeur. For example, 'Āghāz-e sāl-e now' (The beginning of the new year).

نویسنده کتاب خود را با یک مقدمه زیبا آغاز کرد. (The author began his book with a beautiful introduction.)

For very informal or technical contexts, Persian has borrowed and adapted terms. استارت زدن (Estārt Zadan) is literally 'to hit the start' and is used for cars, machines, or colloquially for starting a project or a task with energy.

کلید زدن (Kelid Zadan): Literally 'to hit the key' or 'to switch on', this is often used in the context of starting a project, a film production, or a construction job. It implies the official launch of something significant.

پروژه ساخت بزرگراه از ماه آینده کلید می‌خورد. (The highway construction project will be launched next month.)

There are also verbs that imply starting by 'opening' something. افتتاح کردن (Eftetāh Kardan) is used specifically for the inauguration or grand opening of a building, an exhibition, or a business. It is highly formal and specific to physical or institutional openings.

راه انداختن (Rāh Andākhtan): Literally 'to set on a path', this is used for starting a business, a machine, or even a rumor. It implies getting something moving that was previously stationary.

او یک کسب و کار کوچک راه انداخته است. (He has started/set up a small business.)

Understanding these alternatives allows you to move beyond basic Persian and express yourself with the nuance of a native speaker. Whether you are 'opening' a bank account (bāz kardan) or 'launching' a satellite (partāb kardan), the concept of starting is multifaceted in Persian.

팁

Compound Verb Rule

Remember that in Persian, many verbs are made of two parts. Only the second part (the verb) changes. 'Shoru'' stays the same no matter who is starting or when.

The 'rā' Marker

If you are starting a specific thing (like 'the' book), don't forget to add 'rā' after the object: 'Ketāb rā shoru' kardam'.

Natural Flow

In spoken Persian, 'shoru' mikonad' often sounds like 'shoru' mikone'. Practice the colloquial endings to sound more natural.

Synonym Choice

Use 'shoru' kardan' for 90% of situations. Save 'āghāz kardan' for when you want to sound poetic or very professional.

Active vs Passive

If the subject isn't 'doing' the starting (like a movie or a class), use 'shoru' shodan' instead of 'shoru' kardan'.

Cultural Start

When starting a meal with Iranians, wait for the host to say 'Shoru' konid' or 'Befarmāyid' before you begin eating.

Sentence Order

Always keep the verb at the very end. Everything else—the subject, the object, the time—comes before 'shoru' kardan'.

Identify the Stem

The present stem is 'kon' and the past stem is 'kard'. Recognizing these will help you identify the tense immediately.

The 'S' Connection

Both 'Start' and 'Shoru'' begin with the 'S' sound. This is a simple way to link the two in your mind.

Nominalization

You can use 'shoru'' as a noun on its own. 'Shoru'-e kār' means 'the start of the work'. This is very useful for titles and headings.

어원

The word 'shoru'' is borrowed from the Arabic root 'sh-r-'' (شروع), which relates to entering, commencing, or establishing a law (sharia). The verb 'kardan' is an ancient Indo-European root found in Old Persian as 'karn-'.

원래 의미: In Arabic, it originally meant to enter into water or to begin a path. In Persian, it was adopted specifically for the act of starting a task.

Persian (Indo-European) + Arabic (Semitic) loanword.

문화적 맥락

There are no major sensitivities, but in religious contexts, 'āghāz' or 'ebtedā' might be preferred for their more formal/sacred tone.

English speakers often use 'start' and 'begin' interchangeably, but 'shoru' kardan' is the most common for both in Persian. English speakers must be careful not to use it for 'starting a car' (use 'roshan kardan').

자주 묻는 질문

10 질문

You say 'Man shoru' kardam'. 'Man' is I, 'shoru'' is start, and 'kardam' is the past tense of 'to do'.

No, it's better to use 'roshan kardan' (to turn on) or 'estārt zadan' (to hit the starter). 'Shoru' kardan' sounds like the car is beginning a task.

'Shoru' kardan' is common and neutral. 'Āghāz kardan' is formal, literary, and often used in books or news.

Only if you are starting *to do* another action. For example: 'shoru' be davidan' (start to run). If you start a noun, you don't need 'be': 'shoru' kār' (start work).

Yes, 'shoru'' comes from Arabic, but 'kardan' is a pure Persian verb. This combination is very common in Persian.

You say 'Biyā shoru' konim' (informal) or 'Biyāyid shoru' konim' (formal).

The most common opposite is 'tamām kardan' (to finish) or 'tamām shodan' (to end).

Man shoru' mikonam, To shoru' mikoni, Ou shoru' mikonad, Mā shoru' mikonim, Shomā shoru' mikonid, Ānhā shoru' mikonand.

No, that is a common mistake. You must use the light verb 'kardan'. 'Shoru'' is a noun and cannot be conjugated directly.

Just change your intonation or add 'āyā' at the beginning. 'Āyā shoru' kardi?' (Did you start?)
