Indefinite and Definite

In Farsi, there is no usage of articles. For instance, translating a noun with a preceding article in English to Farsi will render this result:

• (en) a/the table → ميز
• (en) a/the son → پسر
• (en) a/the cat → گربه
• (en) a/the father → پاپا
• (en) a/the door → در

However, in Farsi, there is also a word, "را", to reference a particular noun in a conversation. It is somewhat similar to "the" in English, however, it is not an equivalent substitute.

• (fa) من را در دیدم → I saw (the particular) door.
• (fa) من را ذان دادم → I gave (the particular) bread.
• (fa) من را سگ برداشم → I took (the particular) dog.
• (fa) من را کتاب نوشتماشم → I wrote (the particular) book.
• (fa) من را کیف دوست داشتم → I loved (the particular) bag.

Pronouns

• (fa) من → I
• (fa) تو → You (singular)
• (fa) او → He/she/it

(In Farsi, there are no distinctions between he, she, or it.)

• (fa) ما → We
• (fa) شُما → You (plural)
• (fa) آنها → They

However, in Farsi, there is no need to directly state a pronoun in a sentence. The pronoun is understood depending on the ending of the verb (similar to other Romance languages).
