Questions & Answers about معاون به عنوان جانشین مدیر خدمت میکند.
How does the target phrase be onvân connect to the rest of the sentence?
It requires an ezafe. You pronounce it as be onvân-e, which links it directly to the role being described. Here, it chains into the next words to make be onvân-e jâneshin-e modir (as the substitute of the manager).
Is jâneshin related to the verb for sitting?
Yes! It is a great example of a compound noun. It combines jâ (place) and neshin (the present stem of neshastan, to sit). Literally, it means someone who sits in your place, which is why it translates perfectly to substitute, successor, or replacement.
We learned kâr kardan (to work) for jobs. Why does this sentence use khedmat kardan?
khedmat kardan translates to to serve and elevates the formality of the sentence. While you could say be onvân-e jâneshin kâr mikonad (works as a substitute), using khedmat mikonad pairs nicely with formal organizational titles like mo'âven (deputy) and modir (manager).
In English we say substitute FOR the manager. Why is there no preposition before modir?
Farsi handles this relationship by treating it as possession, using the ezafe connector. So instead of using a preposition like for (barây-e), the sentence literally says the substitute OF the manager (jâneshin-e modir).
