Usage notes[edit]

As in the examples above, the construction is impersonal. What in English would be the subject of "to dislike" is introduced with a pronominal enclitic attached to بد (bad), which is analyzed as either the grammatical possessor of the dislike or as the indirect object of its coming. What would be the object of "to dislike" is introduced with the preposition از (az, from, of). Hence the construction literally means "one's dislike comes from [] " or "it comes badly from [] to one".

In order to explicitly state the identity of the person liking it, the noun is introduced as the topic before the verbal construction, which is still marked for a third-person possessor. See the example of Fatima above.
