Questions & Answers about باید به اینکه وزیر احمدی پیشنهاد را تایید کرد توجه کنیم.
Why is there an Ezafe pronounced between vazir (Minister) and Ahmadi?
This is the Explanatory Ezafe. In Farsi, when you combine a title, profession, or relationship with a specific name, you must link them with an Ezafe. Unlike English where we just say 'Minister Ahmadi', Farsi structure requires the link, making it vazir-e Ahmadi. This applies to almost all titles, like doktor-e Tehrâni or âghâ-ye Ahmadi.
Why does the sentence use be in-ke instead of just ke (that) to introduce the Minister's action?
The compound verb tavajjoh kardan (to pay attention) requires the preposition be (to). Farsi grammar doesn't allow placing a preposition directly before the conjunction ke. To fix this, we insert in (this) as a placeholder pronoun. You can think of it literally as 'We must pay attention to this fact, that...'.
Why is the final verb tavajjoh konim in the subjunctive mood even though it is at the very end of the sentence?
It is triggered by the modal verb bâyad (must) at the very beginning of the sentence. The core structure here is bâyad ... tavajjoh konim (we must pay attention). It does not matter how much information is placed in the middle of the sentence; the modal verb still forces its main verb into the subjunctive.
Why is ta'yid kard (confirmed) in the simple past tense, rather than taking a subjunctive form like the other verb?
The modal verb bâyad only affects the action we are obligated to do right now, which is 'pay attention' (). The clause about the Minister is a completed, factual event ('he confirmed the proposal'). Therefore, stays in the simple past tense.
