Questions & Answers about روال نام‌برده مغایر با قوانین جدید کشور است.

How does مغایر با (moghâyer bâ) work here, and could I use بر خلاف (bar khalâf-e) instead?
مغایر is an Arabic-derived adjective meaning "contrary" or "inconsistent." It pairs directly with the preposition با (with), whereas بر خلاف uses an ezâfe to connect to the following noun. You could rewrite this as بر خلاف قوانین جدید (bar khalâf-e ghavânin-e jadid) with almost the exact same meaning, though مغایر با sounds slightly more formal and legal, fitting well with a sentence about laws.
Should there be an ezâfe connecting مغایر to با?
No, you do not use an ezâfe here. The ezâfe (the connecting "-e" sound) links nouns to adjectives or possessors. Because با is a preposition, it just follows the adjective مغایر directly without any linking vowel. You do, however, need an ezâfe to connect روال to نام‌برده (revâl-e nâm-borde).
How is the word نام‌برده (nâm-borde) constructed to mean "aforementioned"?
It is a compound made from the noun نام (name) and برده, the past participle of بردن (to carry/take). Literally meaning "whose name has been carried/mentioned," it acts as an adjective in formal or administrative Farsi to mean "aforementioned" or "the named person/thing."
Why is the word for "laws" written as قوانین (ghavânin) instead of taking a regular Farsi plural suffix?
قانون (ghânun - law) is an Arabic loanword. While you will sometimes hear the regular Persian plural قانون‌ها (ghânun-hâ) in casual speech, formal and administrative Farsi almost always uses its Arabic "broken plural" form, قوانین (ghavânin). At the B2 level, it is highly recommended to recognize and use these broken plurals in formal contexts.
