Questions & Answers about قوز کردن روی صندلی باعث میشود که ستون فقرات شما آسیب ببیند.
Why do we use the subjunctive form ببیند (bebinad) instead of the present indicative?
The verb باعث شدن (to cause) requires the verb in the following clause to be in the present subjunctive. This is because it introduces a potential result or consequence rather than a stated, independent fact. That is why we use the subjunctive ببیند instead of the indicative میبیند.
How does the infinitive قوز کردن (ghooz kardan) work as the subject of the sentence?
In Farsi, the infinitive form of a verb naturally acts as a gerund (an action noun that ends in '-ing' in English). Here, قوز کردن literally means 'to slouch', but when placed at the start of the sentence as the subject, it translates to the noun 'slouching'.
Why does getting injured use the verb دیدن (to see) in آسیب ببیند?
The standard Farsi compound verb for 'to get injured' or 'to suffer damage' is آسیب دیدن, which literally translates to 'to see damage'. Because the spine is the subject of that specific clause, it is the thing 'seeing' the injury.
Is the conjunction که (ke) strictly required after باعث میشود?
No, it is optional. Just as you can often drop the word 'that' in English, you could correctly say باعث میشود ستون فقرات شما آسیب ببیند. However, keeping که clearly marks the start of the subjunctive clause, which is very common in both spoken and written Farsi.
