To introduce a reason at the beginning of a sentence, Farsi uses the conjunction از آنجا که ("since" or "seeing that"). Because this conjunction establishes a known fact or condition, the verb in its clause takes the indicative mood.
| Since spelunking is dangerous, we must prepare the equipment. | از آنجا که غارنوردی خطرناک است، باید تجهیزات را آماده کنیم.az ânjâ ke ghârnavardi khatarnâk ast, bâyad tajhizât râ âmâde konim. |
The reason clause comes first (usually followed by a comma), followed by the main clause containing the result.
| Since the cave is damp, be careful lest you fall. | از آنجا که غار مرطوب است، مواظب باش مبادا بیفتی.az ânjâ ke ghâr martub ast, movâzeb bâsh mabâdâ biofti. |
| Since the route is narrow, spelunking here is very hard. | از آنجا که مسیر تنگ است، غارنوردی در اینجا خیلی سخت است.az ânjâ ke masir-e tang ast, ghârnavardi dar injâ kheyli sakht ast. |
The main clause can be a standard statement, a requirement, or a command based on the premise you just established.
| Since the bats are asleep in the cave, observe silence. | از آنجا که خفاشها در غار خوابیدهاند، سکوت را رعایت کنید.az ânjâ ke khoffâsh-hâ dar ghâr khâbide-and, sokut râ re'âyat konid. |
| Since this slope is dangerous, you must tie the knot to the carabiner. | از آنجا که این شیب خطرناک است، باید گره را به کارابین بزنید.az ânjâ ke in shib khatarnâk ast, bâyad gereh râ be kârâbin bezanid. |
