Questions & Answers about مربی با من ورزش میکند تا قوی بشوم.
Why do we use the subjunctive form بشوم (beshavam) here instead of the regular present tense میشوم (mishavam)?
The word تا (tâ) here means "so that" or "in order to". In Farsi, when you use تا to express a purpose, goal, or intention, the verb that follows it must be in the present subjunctive form. That is why we use بشوم (beshavam) instead of the regular present indicative میشوم (mishavam).
The first verb is about the coach (ورزش میکند), but the second verb is about me (بشوم). Do we need to add the pronoun من (man) after تا (tâ)?
You do not have to! In Farsi, the ending of the verb always tells us who is doing the action. The -am ending on بشوم (beshavam) already makes it perfectly clear that "I" am the one becoming strong. Because of this, adding من (man) again is optional and usually left out to sound more natural.
Could I use برای اینکه (barâ-ye inke) instead of تا (tâ) in this sentence?
Yes! Both تا (tâ) and برای اینکه (barâ-ye inke) can mean "so that" or "in order to", and both are followed by the subjunctive mood. You could say برای اینکه قوی بشوم (barâ-ye inke qavi beshavam) and it would mean exactly the same thing. However, تا is shorter and very common in everyday speech.
Is ورزش میکند (varzesh mikonad) a compound verb? How does it break down?
Yes, it is a compound verb. It is made from the noun ورزش (varzesh), meaning "sport" or "exercise", and the verb کردن (kardan), meaning "to do" or "to make". So ورزش میکند (varzesh mikonad) literally means "does exercise".
