امیدوارم که

Hoping with امیدوارم

Level 3

امیدوارم changes with the person who hopes, and the verb after که agrees with whoever the hope is about.

How It Works

PersonDariMeaning
منامیدوارم که بیاییI hope you come
توامیدواری که بیایمyou hope I come
اوامیدوار است که بیاییhe or she hopes you come
ماامیدواریم که بیاییwe hope you come
شماامیدوارید که بیایمyou hope I come
آن‌هاامیدوارند که بیاییthey hope you come

The two verbs can have different people, because the person who hopes can be a different person from the one who acts: امیدوارم که تو زود جور شوی (I hope you get well soon).

Use it in wishes and letters: امیدوارم که حال شما خوب باشد (I hope you are well). که can be left out in speech: امیدوارم بیایی.

Make the hope negative inside the clause with نـ: امیدوارم که دیر نشود (I hope it won't be late).

Common Mistakes

  • Letting the second verb take the wrong person.

    امیدوارم که شما خوب باشم.
    امیدوارم که شما خوب باشید.

    The verb after که agrees with شما, the person you hope for, and not with من, the person who hopes.
