که

The Persian word "که" means "who," "that," or "which," used as a relative pronoun or conjunction.

In a sentence

  • او گفت که فردا به سفر می‌رود.

    He said that he would travel tomorrow.

    The word 'که' is used as a conjunction to introduce a dependent clause explaining the content of what was said.

  • می‌دانم که این کار دشوار است.

    I know that this task is difficult.

    Here, 'که' connects the verb 'می‌دانم' (I know) to the clause providing the information known.
