خلفية ثقافية
During the Persian New Year, people visit elders and 'ārezu' for a 'Sāl-e Por-Barekat' (a year full of blessings). It is a time of collective wishing. On the longest night of the year, Iranians take a 'Faal' from the poetry of Hafez. The poem is often seen as an answer to a secret 'ārezu' the person made before opening the book. In Afghanistan, the phrase is used similarly, but the pronunciation might slightly differ. The sentiment of wishing for peace ('solh') is a very common usage in daily speech. Tajik Persian uses 'آرزو نمودن' (ārezu namudan) more frequently in formal writing, which is a more formal version of 'kardan'.
The Birthday Rule

Don't be too dramatic
Avoid using this verb for small things like 'I wish I had a pen.' It makes you sound like you're in a soap opera.
