Questions & Answers about طبق این مصوبه، یکی از مهمترین اهداف، متوقف کردن دفن زباله است.
How does tebq-e fit into the grammar here, and does it mean the exact same thing as bar asâs-e?
tebq-e is a preposition meaning "according to" or "in accordance with." Like bar asâs-e (based on), it links to the noun that follows it using the ezafe (-e). While they are often interchangeable, tebq-e is especially common when referring to formal rules, laws, or resolutions like mosavvabe here, whereas bar asâs-e is broader and can be used for general facts or logic.
Why is the plural of hadaf (goal) written as ahdâf instead of hadaf-hâ?
ahdâf is an Arabic broken plural. In formal Farsi and journalistic contexts (like discussing a resolution), Arabic broken plurals are extremely common. You could technically use the regular Farsi plural hadaf-hâ, but ahdâf sounds much more natural and professional here.
How does the infinitive motevaqqef kardan act as the word "stopping" in this sentence?
In Farsi, the full infinitive form of a verb (ending in -an) also functions as a verbal noun or gerund. This is similar to English words ending in "-ing." Therefore, motevaqqef kardan translates to both "to stop" and the noun concept of "stopping."
Is there an unseen ezafe connecting the action of stopping to the landfilling?
Yes! When a compound infinitive like motevaqqef kardan acts as a noun and is followed by its object (dafn-e zobâle), they must be connected by an ezafe. When reading aloud, you pronounce it as motevaqqef kardan-e dafn-e zobâle, which literally translates to "the stopping of the burial of waste."
