Questions & Answers about من الان درآمد زیادی ندارم، پس صرفهجویی میکنم برای اینکه فقط برای وسایل ضروری خرج کنم.
Why do we use the subjunctive form xarj konam (spend) at the end of the sentence?
The verb follows barâ-ye inke (in order that / so that), which introduces an explicit purpose clause. In Farsi, verbs that describe a goal or purpose always take the present subjunctive because the action is intended but has not actually happened yet.
Why does the word barâ-ye appear twice in the second half of the sentence?
They are doing two different jobs. The first is part of the fixed conjunction barâ-ye inke meaning so that or in order to. The second is the standard preposition barâ-ye meaning for, which links the action of spending to vasâyel-e zaruri (essential items).
What is the literal meaning of the compound verb sarfe-juyi mikonam?
The infinitive sarfe-juyi kardan means to economize or to be frugal. sarfe means thrift or savings, and juyi comes from the verb stem for seeking. Together, it literally means I do thrift-seeking.
Why is there an -i at the end of ziâdi in darâmad-e ziâdi?
The base adjective is ziâd (much or a lot), connected to darâmad (income) with an ezâfe. The final -i is the indefinite suffix. Together, darâmad-e ziâdi nadâram translates smoothly to I do not have much of an income.
