Explicação دلیل آوردن in your Level:

At the A1 level, you don't need to worry about complex logic. Think of 'dalil āvordan' simply as 'saying why.' In Persian, 'dalil' means 'reason' and 'āvordan' means 'to bring.' So, when you want to tell someone why you did something, you 'bring a reason.' It is like saying 'because' (chon-ke) but using a full verb. For example, if you are late for class, you 'bring a reason' to your teacher. It is a very useful phrase even for beginners because it helps you start explaining your actions. You can use it in simple sentences like 'I have a reason' (Man dalil dāram) or 'I bring a reason' (Man dalil mi-āvaram). Just remember that in Persian, we don't 'give' (dādan) reasons, we 'bring' (āvordan) them. This is a very important difference from English that will make you sound much better at Persian right from the start.

At the A2 level, you can start using 'dalil āvordan' in the past and present tenses to talk about your daily life. You might use it to explain why you like a certain food or why you didn't do your homework. At this level, you should learn the basic conjugation of the verb 'āvordan.' In the present, it is 'mi-āvaram' (I bring), and in the past, it is 'āvordam' (I brought). You can combine it with the word 'barāye' (for). For example: 'U barāye dir āmadan dalil āvord' (He brought a reason for coming late). You are moving beyond simple 'why' questions and starting to describe the act of explaining yourself. You should also recognize that 'dalil' is the thing you are bringing. If you have many reasons, you can say 'dalilhā' or the more common 'dalāyel.' This verb is very helpful for basic social interactions where you need to justify your choices to friends or family.

At the B1 level, you should be comfortable using 'دلیل آوردن' in more complex sentence structures, including the subjunctive mood. For example, using 'bāyad' (must) requires the subjunctive: 'Bāyad dalil biyāvari' (You must bring a reason). At this stage, you start to understand the difference between a 'good' reason and a 'bad' reason. You can add adjectives like 'ghāne-konandeh' (convincing) or 'manteghi' (logical). You will hear this word in news reports or in more serious conversations. You are also beginning to see how this verb is used in stories to show what a character is thinking. It's not just about excuses anymore; it's about supporting an opinion. You should also be aware of the synonym 'tovjih kardan,' which often means 'to justify' in a slightly defensive way. Comparing these two will help you express yourself more accurately in Persian-speaking environments.

At the B2 level, 'دلیل آوردن' becomes a tool for professional and academic discourse. You are expected to use it to present arguments in a structured way. You should be able to use the broken plural 'dalāyel' naturally and understand how to use the verb in the passive voice ('dalāyeli āvordeh shod'). At this level, you recognize the nuances of tone—when 'dalil āvordan' is a neutral act of reasoning versus when it is a social maneuver to save face. You can use it in debates to challenge someone: 'Barāye in harf che dalili mi-āvari?' (What reason do you bring for this statement?). You are also expected to handle the prepositional phrases that go with it, such as 'dalil āvordan dar morede...' (bringing reasons about...). Your use of this verb should reflect a clear understanding of Persian logic and the cultural importance of providing a well-constructed justification for one's views or actions in a public or professional forum.

At the C1 level, you use 'دلیل آوردن' with precision and stylistic flair. You can distinguish it from highly formal terms like 'estedlāl kardan' (to reason) or 'borhān āvordan' (to provide demonstrative proof). You understand its use in classical and modern literature, where the 'bringing of reasons' might be a central theme of a character's moral struggle. You can use the verb in complex, multi-clause sentences with sophisticated conjunctions and transitions. You also understand the rhetorical power of the verb—how 'bringing a reason' can be used to persuade, manipulate, or enlighten an audience. Your vocabulary includes a wide range of collocations, such as 'dalāyel-e dandan-shekan' (crushing/irrefutable reasons). You are capable of following a complex legal or philosophical argument in Persian where this verb is used to build a case step-by-step. At this level, the verb is no longer just a vocabulary item; it is a fundamental part of your ability to engage in high-level Persian intellectual life.

At the C2 level, you have a masterly command of 'دلیل آوردن' and its place within the broader landscape of Persian linguistics and philosophy. You can discuss the etymology of 'dalil' and its historical development in Persian logic (manteq). You are able to use the verb in a way that perfectly matches the register of any situation, from a casual idiom-filled conversation to a formal academic dissertation. You can analyze how different authors use this verb to construct their rhetorical strategies. You are also aware of the subtle cultural implications—how the act of 'bringing reasons' intersects with Iranian concepts of honor, truth, and social harmony. You can spontaneously generate complex arguments, bringing multiple levels of reasoning, and use the verb 'دلیل آوردن' to signpost your logic for your listeners or readers. Your command is such that you can even play with the word, using it ironically or in sophisticated wordplay that only a near-native speaker would understand.

دلیل آوردن em 30 segundos

A versatile Persian compound verb used to provide justifications, arguments, or excuses in both formal and casual settings.
Literally translates to 'to bring reasons,' utilizing the noun 'dalil' (reason) and the verb 'āvordan' (to bring).
Essential for B2 learners to master logical discourse, debates, and navigating social explanations in Iranian culture.
Commonly paired with the preposition 'barāye' (for) and often used in the subjunctive mood to express necessity.

The Persian compound verb دلیل آوردن (dalil āvordan) is a cornerstone of logical discourse, everyday persuasion, and intellectual inquiry in the Persian-speaking world. At its most basic level, it translates to "to bring reasons," which is the literal equivalent of "to provide justification" or "to argue a point" in English. The word dalil (دلیل) is of Arabic origin, meaning 'proof,' 'guide,' or 'evidence,' while āvordan (آوردن) is a native Persian verb meaning 'to bring.' When these two merge, they create a functional unit used to describe the act of supporting a claim with facts, logic, or even excuses. Unlike simply 'explaining' (توضیح دادن), دلیل آوردن implies a need to validate a position or a behavior that might be under scrutiny.

Formal Context: In academic writing or legal proceedings, this verb is used to describe the presentation of evidence. For example, a lawyer must bring reasons to prove a client's innocence.
Casual Context: In daily life, if someone is late to a meeting, they might 'bring reasons' (often excuses) to explain their tardiness to their friends or boss.

او برای غیبت خود دلیل آورد اما هیچ‌کس حرفش را باور نکرد.
He brought reasons for his absence, but no one believed his word.

The nuance of this word often shifts depending on the tone. If used in a philosophical debate, it represents the high art of 'reasoning.' If used in a parent-child argument, it might lean toward 'making excuses.' In Persian culture, where indirect communication (Ta'arof) is common, the act of دلیل آوردن is often a way to maintain face while declining an invitation or explaining a failure. It is not just about the logic; it is about the social performance of providing a legitimate cause for one's actions. This verb is also closely related to the concept of 'Burhan' (demonstrative proof) in Islamic philosophy, though 'dalil' is much more common in secular and everyday speech.

To master this verb, one must understand that it is a 'light verb construction.' This means the verb 'āvordan' carries the grammatical weight (tense, person, number), while 'dalil' carries the semantic meaning. You can modify 'dalil' with adjectives to change the quality of the reasoning. For instance, dalil-e mohkam āvordan means 'to bring strong reasons,' whereas dalil-e bi-payeh āvordan means 'to bring baseless reasons.' This flexibility makes it a powerful tool for any B2-level speaker looking to express complex thoughts and justifications in Persian.

دانشمند برای فرضیه خود دلیل‌های علمی آورد.
The scientist brought scientific reasons for his hypothesis.

Using دلیل آوردن correctly requires an understanding of Persian compound verb syntax. The verb 'āvordan' is transitive, but in this compound form, 'dalil' acts as the direct object. Therefore, you do not typically use the post-position 'rā' (را) after 'dalil' unless you are specifying a very particular reason previously mentioned. The most common preposition used with this verb is برای (barāye - for) to indicate what the reason is being provided for. You might also use در مورد (dar morede - about) or علیه (alayhe - against).

The Present Tense: The stem for 'āvordan' in the present is 'āvar' (آور). To say "I am bringing reasons," you say: دلیل می‌آورم (dalil mi-āvaram).
The Past Tense: The past stem is 'āvord' (آورد). To say "They brought reasons," you say: آن‌ها دلیل آوردند (ānhā dalil āvordand).

چرا همیشه برای اشتباهاتت دلیل می‌آوری؟
Why do you always bring reasons (make excuses) for your mistakes?

One of the most important aspects of using this verb at a B2 level is the ability to use it in the subjunctive mood. When expressing necessity, doubt, or desire, the 'mi-' prefix is replaced with 'be-'. For example: 'He must bring a reason' becomes 'او باید دلیل بیاورد' (u bāyad dalil biyāvarad). Note the euphonic 'y' that appears between 'be-' and 'āvar'. This is a common stumbling block for learners but is essential for natural-sounding Persian.

In complex sentences, دلیل آوردن can be followed by a 'ke' (که) clause to explain the content of the reason. For example: "He brought the reason that the traffic was heavy." (او دلیل آورد که ترافیک سنگین بود). Here, the verb acts as a reporting verb, similar to 'saying' or 'claiming.' It is also frequently used in the passive voice in formal reports: 'Reasons were brought' (دلایلی آورده شد).

باید برای اثبات ادعایت دلیل بیاوری.
You must bring reasons to prove your claim.

You will encounter دلیل آوردن in a variety of settings, ranging from high-stakes environments like courtrooms to the mundane setting of a family dinner table. In the Iranian media, specifically in political debates or talk shows, pundits frequently use this term to challenge their opponents. You might hear a host say, "Please bring your reasons for this policy" (لطفاً برای این سیاست دلیل بیاورید). It is the standard way to ask for an argument or a justification in a professional setting.

In Education: Teachers often tell students: "Don't just give the answer; bring reasons for it" (فقط جواب نده، برایش دلیل بیاور). This encourages critical thinking.
In Literature: Modern Persian prose often uses this verb to describe the internal struggles of characters who are trying to justify their questionable choices to themselves.

در دادگاه، وکیل برای بی‌گناهی موکلش دلیل آورد.
In court, the lawyer brought reasons for his client's innocence.

In the realm of psychology and self-help—which is very popular in contemporary Iran—the verb is used to discuss 'rationalization.' Therapists might talk about how people 'bring reasons' to avoid facing their true emotions. In this context, the verb takes on a slightly negative connotation, implying a lack of honesty with oneself. However, in scientific journals (published in Persian), the verb is strictly neutral and refers to the presentation of data and logical inferences.

Socially, if you are being interrogated by a curious relative about why you aren't married yet or why you chose a certain career, you will find yourself 'bringing reasons' constantly. Persian social dynamics often involve a lot of 'chera' (why) questions, and دلیل آوردن is your primary defense mechanism. It is a linguistic tool for navigating the complex web of social expectations in Iranian society.

مدیر برای اخراج کارمند دلایل منطقی آورد.
The manager brought logical reasons for firing the employee.

One of the most frequent mistakes English speakers make when learning دلیل آوردن is trying to translate the English phrase "give a reason" literally as *دلیل دادن (dalil dādan). While 'dādan' means 'to give,' it is almost never used with 'dalil' in Persian. Using 'dādan' will make you sound very foreign and is grammatically unnatural. Always remember: in Persian, you don't 'give' reasons; you 'bring' them.

Confusion with 'Explain': Learners often use 'toziih dādan' (explaining) when they should use 'dalil āvordan'. 'Toziih' is about making something clear; 'dalil' is about making something justified.
Incorrect Prepositions: Avoid using 'be' (to) when you mean 'for'. It's 'dalil barāye' (reason for), not 'dalil be'.

غلط: او برای کارش دلیل داد.
درست: او برای کارش دلیل آورد.
Correct: He brought (gave) a reason for his work.

Another common error involves the pluralization. As mentioned, the plural of 'dalil' is 'dalāyel'. Beginners often try to pluralize it as 'dalilhā'. While 'dalilhā' is technically possible in very informal speech, 'dalāyel' is the standard. Furthermore, when using the plural, ensure the verb 'āvordan' stays in the correct form. Some learners accidentally pluralize the verb to match the object, which is incorrect in Persian; the verb only agrees with the subject.

Finally, be careful with the word tovjih kardan (to justify). While it is a synonym, tovjih kardan often has a negative connotation of 'making excuses' or 'whitewashing' an action. If you want to remain neutral or positive, stick with دلیل آوردن. Using the wrong one can change the entire tone of your sentence from logical to defensive.

او فقط می‌خواهد اشتباهش را توجیه کند، نه اینکه دلیل بیاورد.
He just wants to justify (excuse) his mistake, not to bring (legitimate) reasons.

Persian is rich with synonyms for 'reasoning' and 'justifying,' each with its own specific register. Understanding these will help you choose the right word for the right context. The most formal alternative to دلیل آوردن is استدلال کردن (estedlāl kardan). This word is derived from the same Arabic root (d-l-l) but is a denominative verb that specifically means 'to reason' or 'to engage in syllogism.' It is used in logic, philosophy, and high-level academia.

استدلال کردن (Estedlāl Kardan): More formal. Used for logical argumentation. Example: "The philosopher reasoned that..."
توجیه کردن (Tovjih Kardan): Often carries a negative nuance of making excuses or trying to make something bad look good.
برهان آوردن (Borhān Āvordan): Used for providing 'proof' or 'demonstration,' often in mathematics or formal logic.

نویسنده برای ادعای خود استدلال‌های محکمی ارائه کرد.
The author presented strong arguments (reasoning) for his claim.

Another common phrase is el-lat tarāshidan (علت تراشیدن), which literally means 'to carve out a cause.' This is very informal and almost always negative. It implies that the person is inventing reasons out of thin air to avoid blame. If you say someone is 'carving reasons,' you are calling them a liar or a master of excuses. On the other hand, moshakhas kardan-e dalil (مشخص کردن دلیل) means 'to specify the reason,' which is more analytical and objective.

In summary, while دلیل آوردن is the most versatile and common term, you should use estedlāl kardan for academic rigor, tovjih kardan for social justifications, and el-lat tarāshidan when you want to criticize someone's excuses. Mastering these distinctions is a sign of a truly advanced Persian speaker.

او همیشه برای تنبلی‌اش علت می‌تراشد.
He always carves out causes (invents excuses) for his laziness.

Curiosidade

The word 'dalil' is the same root as 'dalālat', which in modern linguistics means 'signification.' So when you 'bring a reason,' you are essentially 'bringing a sign' that points to the truth.

Arabic Plurals

Pair 'dalil' with 'manteghi' (logical) or 'ghāne-konandeh' (convincing) for better impact.

The 'Bring' Rule

Think of a person 'bringing' a heavy book of 'reasons' to a meeting.

Origem da palavra

The word 'dalil' is an Arabic loanword from the root D-L-L (د ل ل), which relates to guiding or pointing out. 'Āvordan' is a Middle Persian (Pahlavi) word 'āvurdan', which descends from Old Persian 'ā-bar' (to bring near).

Significado original: The combination literally means 'to bring a guide' or 'to bring a proof.' In classical Persian, it was used both for physical evidence and intellectual arguments.

Indo-European (Persian verb) + Afro-Asiatic (Arabic noun).

Contexto cultural

Be careful not to sound like you are 'excuse-making' (tovjih kardan) when you should be providing 'logical reasons' (dalil āvordan).

In English, we 'give' reasons; in Persian, we 'bring' them. This reflects a more 'active' or 'physical' conceptualization of evidence in Persian.

The 'Masnavi' of Rumi often discusses the limitations of 'dalil āvordan' compared to spiritual intuition. Modern Iranian political debates are famous for the phrase 'dalil-e ghāne-konandeh biyāvarid' (bring a convincing reason). Sadegh Hedayat's characters often struggle with 'dalil āvordan' for their existential despair.

Perguntas frequentes

No, 'dalil dādan' is incorrect in Persian. Even though we say 'give a reason' in English, Persian speakers always use 'dalil āvordan' (bring a reason). Using 'dādan' will immediately mark you as a non-native speaker.

'Dalil' (دلیل) is usually a reason provided by a person for an action or an argument. 'El-lat' (علت) is often the scientific or physical cause of an event. For example, the 'el-lat' of rain is condensation, but your 'dalil' for carrying an umbrella is to stay dry.

You use the future auxiliary 'khāhad' with the short infinitive 'āvord'. For example: 'او دلیل خواهد آورد' (He will bring a reason).

It is neutral and can be used in almost any context. However, in very formal academic settings, 'استدلال کردن' (estedlāl kardan) is preferred.

'Dalil-tarāshi' (دلیل‌تراشی) is a noun meaning 'the fabrication of reasons' or 'making excuses.' It comes from the verb 'tarāshidan' (to carve/shave).

You can say 'bi-dalil' (بی‌دلیل) or 'bedun-e dalil' (بدون دلیل).

Yes, in the sense of 'presenting an argument.' It does not mean 'to have a fight' (which is 'da'vā kardan').

The most common plural is 'dalāyel' (دلایل), which is an Arabic broken plural. You can also use 'dalilhā' (دلیل‌ها) in casual speech.

To tell someone to give a reason, say 'دلیل بیاور' (dalil biyāvar) for singular or 'دلیل بیاورید' (dalil biyāvarid) for plural/formal.

Usually, yes. You 'bring a reason FOR something' (dalil āvordan BARĀYE chizi). Without a preposition, it just means 'to reason' in general.
