Questions & Answers about من امیدوارم که بر اساس این بخشنامه، مردم پسماند را تفکیک کنند.
Could I use tebq-e or motâbeq-e instead of bar asâs-e in this sentence?
Yes, they are highly interchangeable in official contexts like this. While bar asâs-e translates most directly to "based on", you could easily use tebq-e (according to) or motâbeq-e (in accordance with) before in bakhshnâmeh to express the exact same idea. Notice that the ezafe vowel connects the preposition directly to the demonstrative in.
Why is the verb tafkik konand in the subjunctive mood?
The sentence starts with omidvâr-am ke (I hope that). Verbs expressing a hope, wish, or desire always require the subjunctive mood in the following dependent clause because the action (separating the waste) is desired but not yet a stated reality.
Is pasmând the standard conversational word for garbage?
No, in everyday casual speech, Iranians usually say zobâleh or âshghâl for trash. Pasmând is a more formal, technical term for "waste". It is the natural choice here because the sentence discusses an official directive (bakhshnâmeh).
What exactly does the compound verb tafkik kardan mean?
It means "to separate", "to segregate", or "to sort". In environmental or municipal contexts, tafkik-e pasmând is the standard terminology for "waste sorting" or separating recyclables from general garbage.
