Questions & Answers about حتی اگر جوهر را با لیزر پاک کنی، زخم دیده میشود.
Why do we use the present subjunctive پاک کنی (pâk koni) after حتی اگر (hattâ agar)?
The phrase حتی اگر (even if) introduces a conditional clause. Just like regular sentences with اگر (if), the verb in this hypothetical condition takes the subjunctive mood because the action has not necessarily happened yet.
Why is the second verb دیده میشود (dide mishavad) in the present indicative instead of the subjunctive?
The second part of the sentence is the result clause. While the 'even if' part is hypothetical and uses the subjunctive, the result clause states what will definitely happen as a consequence (the wound is seen). Therefore, it uses the standard present indicative.
How does the passive voice work in the phrase دیده میشود (dide mishavad)?
To form the passive voice in Farsi, you use the past participle of the main verb followed by a conjugated form of شدن (shodan - to become). Here, دیده (dide) is the past participle of دیدن (to see), and میشود is the present indicative of شدن. Literally, it means 'becomes seen'.
Why do we need the word را (râ) after جوهر (johar)?
The word را (râ) marks a specific direct object. Because you are talking about erasing 'the' ink (a specific tattoo or mark), جوهر takes را to show exactly what is receiving the action of the verb پاک کنی.
