Questions & Answers about صندلی جدید باعث میشود که شما از این مشکل پیشگیری کنید.
Why is the verb pishgiri konid in the subjunctive form here?
The verb bâ'es shodan (to cause) triggers the subjunctive in the following clause. In Farsi, instead of saying 'causes you to prevent' with an infinitive, you literally say 'causes that you prevent'. Therefore, the second verb must be in the present subjunctive: pishgiri konid.
Why is there an az before in moshkel? In English, we just say 'prevent this problem.'
The compound verb pishgiri kardan (to prevent) requires the preposition az (from) to introduce the thing being prevented. Think of it as literally saying 'you do prevention from this problem.'
Could I put the pronoun shomâ before the word ke?
No. shomâ is the subject of the second clause (the person doing the preventing). Because ke (that) introduces this new clausal complement, the subject shomâ must come after it. The first clause's subject is sandali-ye jadid (the new chair).
I have also learned jelogiri kardan for 'to prevent'. Could I use that here instead of pishgiri kardan?
Yes, you could say az in moshkel jelogiri konid. However, pishgiri kardan specifically emphasizes taking precautions beforehand to stop something from happening (like a medical issue or posture problem), whereas jelogiri kardan can also mean stopping or blocking something that is already in progress. Both verbs take the preposition az.
