Questions & Answers about بیایید یک جانشین حقوقی برایش پیدا کنیم.
How does بیایید (you all come) end up meaning 'Let's' in this sentence?
In Farsi, you can express 'let's do something' by using the imperative form of 'to come' (بیایید for plural/formal or بیا for singular/informal) followed by your main verb in the present subjunctive (پیدا کنیم). It acts as an encouraging prompt, functioning exactly like 'come on, let's [verb]' in English.
Since we are learning about به عنوان (in the capacity of / as), why isn't it used here to mean 'find someone AS a legal proxy'?
Here, 'a legal proxy' is simply the direct object being sought out, not a role being assigned to a specific person. You would use به عنوان if you already had a specific person and were placing them in that capacity. For example: او را به عنوان جانشین انتخاب کردیم (We selected him AS a proxy).
What is the literal breakdown of the word جانشین (proxy/substitute)?
It is a compound noun made from جا (place) and نشین (the present stem of نشستن, to sit). Literally, it translates to a 'place-sitter'—someone who sits in for you or takes your place.
Is there any difference between using برایش instead of writing out برای او?
Grammatically they mean the exact same thing ('for him/her'). However, attaching the enclitic pronoun ـَش (-ash) directly to the preposition برای (for) is extremely common and natural in both everyday speech and writing. It simply flows better. Notice that a 'y' sound bridges the gap between the vowel in برای and the attached pronoun.
