Questions & Answers about از طریق این سازمان، به نیازمندان پناه داده شد و آموزش داده شدند.
How do we form the passive voice for the compound verbs in this sentence?
You keep the non-verbal part of the compound verb the same, and replace the active verb dâdan, which means to give, with its passive equivalent dâde shodan. Here, panâh dâdan becomes panâh dâde shodan, and âmuzesh dâdan becomes âmuzesh dâde shodan.
Why does the first verb end in the singular shod while the second verb ends in the plural shodand?
This is the trickiest part of the sentence! It happens because the two passive verbs take different grammatical subjects. In the active voice, you give shelter to someone (be kasi panâh dâdan). In the passive, the word panâh (shelter) becomes the subject, so the verb is singular (shod). For the second verb, you train someone directly (kasi râ âmuzesh dâdan). In the passive, the direct object drops râ and becomes the subject. Here, that subject is the implied niyâzmândân (the needy). Since it refers to a plural group of people, the verb takes the plural ending (shodand).
Why is the word niyâzmândân used instead of niyâzmandhâ?
niyâzmand means needy. The suffix -ân is a formal plural marker typically used for living beings, usually humans. Since this is a formal sentence, indicated by the passive voice and words like sâzmân, niyâzmândân sounds much more natural and elevated than the everyday niyâzmandhâ.
What is the difference between az tariq-e and tavassot-e in this context?
Both are formal ways to introduce the agent, or the doer, in a passive sentence. az tariq-e literally translates to via or through the route of, emphasizing the channel used. tavassot-e translates closer to by or by means of. In this sentence, they are practically interchangeable.
