Questions & Answers about متهم برای اینکه حقیقت را پنهان کند، در حین محاکمه تجاهل کرد.
How does the word تجاهل fit into the Form VI 'ta-C1-â-C2-o-C3' pattern we are studying, and what meaning does it create?
The word تجاهل (tajâhol) uses the Arabic root ج ه ل (j-h-l), which relates to ignorance or a lack of knowledge (seen in the noun جهل). When placed into the Form VI pattern, it takes on the meaning of pretense or faking. Combined with the light verb کردن, the compound verb تجاهل کردن means to intentionally fake a lack of knowledge, or in simpler terms, 'to play dumb'.
Why is the verb کند in the subjunctive form here rather than the present indicative?
The verb کند is in the subjunctive because it is part of a purpose clause introduced by برای اینکه (for this that / in order to). Whenever you express intention, purpose, or a desired outcome, the verb in that clause must be in the subjunctive mood to show that the action (hiding the truth) is a potential goal, not an established fact.
The word محاکمه (trial) also looks like a derived Arabic noun. What root is it built on?
محاکمه (mohâkame) is built on the three-letter root ح ک م (h-k-m), which deals with judgment, authority, or law. You will recognize this root in other B2-level legal terms like حکم (verdict/order) and محکمه (courtroom).
What is the function of در حین in this sentence, and how does it connect to the next word?
در حین (dar hin-e) is a formal prepositional phrase meaning 'during' or 'in the course of'. Because it acts as a preposition describing the following noun, it requires an ezafe to link the two words together, which is why it is pronounced as dar hin-e mohâkame (during the trial).
