Questions & Answers about هر چه بیشتر گرامر بخوانیم، به زبان انگلیسی مسلطتر میشویم.
How does the "the more... the more..." structure work in this sentence?
The pattern uses har che (literally "whatever") followed by a comparative word in the first clause, and another comparative in the second clause. Here, the first comparative is the standalone word bishtar (more). The second comparative is the suffix -tar added to the adjective mosallat, making mosallat-tar (more proficient).
Why is the first verb bekhānim in the subjunctive mood, while the second verb mishavim is indicative?
In these correlative structures, the first part acts as a hypothetical condition (if or whenever we might study more), so it takes the subjunctive mood. The second part is the guaranteed result of that condition (we definitely become more proficient), which requires the regular present indicative.
Why is the preposition be used before zabān-e englisi?
The word mosallat means fluent, proficient, or dominant. In Farsi, this adjective always pairs with the preposition be (to). Instead of saying you are proficient "in" a language, Farsi phrasing literally translates to being proficient "to" it.
Why does the sentence use a form of khāndan (to read) for studying grammar?
While Farsi has a formal verb for studying, it is extremely common in everyday speech to use khāndan when talking about taking a class, learning a specific subject like grammar, or pursuing an academic degree.
