Learn Farsi: آیا گارانتی این سیستم ضد نفوذ را پوشش می‌دهد؟ - Does the warranty cover this anti-intrusion system?

ضد (zed) means "anti," "counter," or "proof." When combined with a noun like نفوذ (nofuz - intrusion or penetration), it forms a compound adjective meaning "anti-intrusion" or "intrusion-proof." You must connect them with the ezafe, so it is pronounced zed-e nofuz.

Why is the direct object marker را placed after ضد نفوذ instead of directly after سیستم?

The marker را must follow the entire definite direct object phrase. Because این سیستم ضد نفوذ (this anti-intrusion system) functions as a single noun phrase, را anchors to the very end of it, following the adjective.

Does the verb پوشش دادن work for both physical covering and insurance coverage just like in English?

Yes, it behaves exactly like the English verb. While پوشش literally means a physical covering or coating, پوشش دادن is the standard compound verb used for insurance policies, warranties, and network coverage.

What does نفوذ mean when it isn't attached to ضد?

On its own, نفوذ means "penetration," "intrusion," or "influence." You will often see it used in contexts like political influence, seeping water, or a cybersecurity breach.
