Questions & Answers about چه از این الگو استفاده کنی چه از آن، نتیجه متفاوت نیست.
How does the che ... che ... structure work in this sentence?
This structure translates to "whether ... or ...". It is used to show that the final outcome will be exactly the same regardless of which of the two options you choose. In this case, the unchanged outcome is that the result is not different (natijeh motefāvet nist).
Why is there an az in the second part (che az ān)? Couldn't I just say che ān?
When the first option is introduced with a preposition like az (as in az in olgoo), you usually must repeat that preposition in the second part. Therefore, it becomes che az ān (literally "whether from that") to maintain grammatical balance.
Why is the verb estefādeh koni in the subjunctive mood?
The che ... che ... (whether... or...) structure sets up a hypothetical condition. Because it describes an action that you might do rather than a stated, completed fact, Farsi requires the present subjunctive mood here.
Why do we need the preposition az before in olgoo in the first place?
The compound verb for "to use" is estefādeh kardan (literally "to do use"). In Farsi, you always make use from something, so the object being used must always be preceded by the preposition az.
Is it mandatory to drop the noun and verb in the second part of the che ... che ... phrase?
It is not grammatically mandatory, but it is highly recommended to avoid sounding repetitive. The full version would be che az ān olgoo estefādeh koni, but just like in English, dropping the repeated words sounds much more natural.
