Questions & Answers about بیمار به سکوت مطلق نیاز دارد، وگرنه سردرد تشدید میشود.
Why is the verb after وگرنه in the present indicative (میشود) rather than the subjunctive?
وگرنه (otherwise) introduces a definite consequence of a failed condition. Because it states a factual, real result that will happen if the condition isn't met, the verb that follows takes the indicative mood (تشدید میشود) rather than the hypothetical subjunctive.
Why is the present tense میشود translated as the future 'will worsen'?
In Farsi, the simple present indicative (the می prefix + present stem) is very commonly used to express near or certain future events. In conditional consequences like the one after وگرنه, using the present tense to state what will happen is completely natural, making the formal future tense (خواهد شد) unnecessary.
Why do we need the preposition به before سکوت مطلق (absolute silence)?
The compound verb نیاز داشتن (to need / to have a need) always requires the preposition به (to) to introduce the object being needed. You are literally saying the patient 'has a need to absolute silence'.
How does the compound verb تشدید میشود work here?
It is formed by combining the Arabic-derived noun تشدید (intensification / aggravation) with the helper verb شدن (to become). So, تشدید میشود literally means 'becomes intensified'. In English, we simply translate this naturally as an active verb: 'worsens'.
