Questions & Answers about سرپرستی این حیوان ممکن است، مشروط بر اینکه برای سلامت آن همیشه به دامپزشکی بروید.
Why is بروید in the subjunctive mood rather than the indicative?
The phrase مشروط بر اینکه sets up a formal condition or stipulation. Just like with به شرطی که, verbs following these 'on the condition that' structures must be in the present subjunctive, hence بروید.
Is سرپرستی the standard word for adoption in Farsi?
Yes, particularly for animals. It literally means 'guardianship' or 'sponsorship.' For adopting children, you will often hear the more specific phrase به فرزندخواندگی گرفتن, but for pets, سرپرستی is the most natural term.
Why is the preposition بر used in مشروط بر اینکه?
The word مشروط (conditional) is conventionally paired with the preposition بر (upon) to mean 'conditional upon.' Together with اینکه, it forms a fixed formal phrase that is a bit more elevated and literary than به شرطی که.
Could I use the possessive suffix and say سلامتش instead of سلامت آن for 'its health'?
Absolutely. سلامتش is grammatically correct and very common in everyday speech. However, using the independent pronoun آن (it/that) makes the sentence sound a bit more formal, which fits well with the elevated tone of مشروط بر اینکه.
Does دامپزشکی mean 'veterinary clinic' or 'veterinary medicine'?
It can mean both! دامپزشک is the veterinarian, and adding the ی suffix can refer either to the profession itself or the clinic. Here, the verb بروید (you go) makes it clear that it refers to the physical clinic.
