I am new and i wonder how am i supposed to run some commands in my standard account (since i don't want to harm system files) that needs root privileges.

i have used sudo and it prompted me to enter the current user's password which is not root, guide me to a way to to it safe.

If you are using the account the system created for you during the installation process, then you are already a member of the sudo group and you will be able to use root priviledges whenever you use sudo with your own password.

In any other case, just add your user to the sudo and adm groups.
