Questions & Answers about از آنجا که آرایش روی صورت است، از پاککننده استفاده میشود.
Why is there an از before پاککننده? In English, 'cleanser' is just the subject of the passive sentence.
The active verb is استفاده کردن از (to use something). When making an impersonal passive from a prepositional verb in Farsi, the preposition (here, از) remains attached to its object. So instead of saying 'a cleanser is used' as a direct subject, Farsi constructs it impersonally, keeping the preposition: از پاککننده استفاده میشود.
Could we just say پاککننده استفاده میشود without the از?
No, dropping the از would make the sentence grammatically incorrect. Because the original verb strictly requires the preposition از to introduce the thing being used, the impersonal passive form must also keep it.
Is از آنجا که interchangeable with چون (because) here?
Yes, but از آنجا که is slightly more formal and is typically used at the beginning of a sentence to mean 'since' or 'due to the fact that'. You could use چون here, but از آنجا که sounds very natural in this kind of explanatory context.
How is the word پاککننده formed?
It comes from the compound verb پاک کردن (to clean). By taking the adjective پاک (clean), adding the present stem of کردن which is کن, and attaching the active participle suffix ـنده (doer), we get پاککننده, which literally means 'clean-doer' or 'cleanser'.
