Questions & Answers about اگه قهر کردی، دیگه این هدیه واسه تو نیست.
The translation says 'stopped talking to me', but what does قهر کردن actually mean?
قهر کردن is a very common cultural concept in Farsi. It literally means to sulk, give the silent treatment, or temporarily cut off contact with someone because you are upset with them. Here, قهر کردی translates smoothly as 'you stopped talking to me'.
Why is قهر کردی in the simple past tense after اگه (if)?
In Farsi, when you use اگه (the colloquial form of اگر) for a condition that has already happened or is viewed as a completed action, you use the simple past tense. It roughly means 'If you have decided to sulk...' or 'If it is a fact that you are giving me the silent treatment...'.
How does دیگه work with the negative verb in this sentence?
دیگه is the spoken form of دیگر. When paired with a negative verb like نیست (is not), it translates to 'not anymore' or 'no longer'. Together, دیگه ... نیست means 'is not ... anymore'.
Is واسه used exactly the same way as برای (for)?
Yes, واسه is simply the everyday spoken equivalent of the formal word برای. You could completely replace it with برای and the meaning wouldn't change, but واسه perfectly matches the casual, spoken tone set by the other colloquial words in this sentence like اگه and دیگه.
