چکاندن في 30 ثانية
- To make liquid fall in small drops.
- Used for precise additions in cooking or medicine.
- Think of squeezing juice or administering eye drops.
The Persian verb 'چکاندن' (chakāndan) is a versatile word that describes the action of causing a liquid to fall in small drops. It can refer to both intentional and unintentional dripping. Think of it as the action of squeezing or letting something drip, often with a focus on precision or a controlled release of liquid.
This verb is commonly used in culinary contexts. For example, when preparing a sauce or dressing, you might 'چکاندن' some olive oil or lemon juice into the mixture. It can also be used when talking about adding flavorings to food, like 'چکاندن' a few drops of vanilla extract into batter. In a more general sense, it can describe the dripping of any liquid, such as water from a leaky faucet or dew from a leaf.
The nuance of 'چکاندن' lies in the controlled, often small, amount of liquid being released. It's not usually about pouring a large quantity, but rather a deliberate or characteristic way of dispensing liquid. This makes it useful for describing specific actions in cooking, medicine, or even natural phenomena.
- Culinary Use
- Chefs often use 'چکاندن' to describe adding precise amounts of flavorings, like 'چکاندن' a few drops of chili oil for extra spice.
- Medical Use
- In a medical context, it can mean to administer drops, such as 'چکاندن' eye drops into the eyes.
- Descriptive Use
- It can also describe natural processes, like the way rain might 'چکاندن' from leaves after a storm.
Before serving the salad, she decided to چکاندن some balsamic glaze over it.
The cook will چکاندن the sauce onto the plate for decoration.
Understanding 'چکاندن' allows you to describe actions with more precision, especially in contexts where small, controlled liquid additions are important. It's a word that paints a vivid picture of a specific type of liquid dispensing.
Using 'چکاندن' (chakāndan) correctly involves understanding its transitive nature, meaning it usually takes an object (what is being dripped) and sometimes implies an agent (who or what is doing the dripping). The verb conjugates like other Persian verbs, changing endings based on tense, person, and number. Here are some common patterns and examples:
- Present Tense (Simple)
- The stem is 'چکان' (chakān). For example, 'من میچکانم' (man mi-chakānam) - I drip.
- Past Tense (Simple)
- The past stem is 'چکانید' (chakānid). For example, 'او چکاند' (u chakānd) - He/She dripped.
- Imperative
- 'بچکان' (bechakān) - Drip! (singular, informal).
Please چکاندن the medicine into the baby's mouth.
Consider the object and the subject. If you are the one doing the dripping, you use the first-person conjugation. If someone else is doing it, or if it's happening naturally, you adjust accordingly. The preposition 'را' (rā) is often used with the direct object when it is specific.
- Adding Flavor
- او چند قطره لیمو را به سالاد چکاند. (He/She dripped a few drops of lemon into the salad.)
- Medical Administration
- دکتر به چشمم قطره چکاند. (The doctor dripped drops into my eye.)
- Natural Dripping
- آب از سقف میچکاند. (Water is dripping from the ceiling.)
The chef carefully چکاند a few drops of saffron extract into the rice.
When constructing sentences, remember the typical Persian Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) order. The prepositional phrases or adverbs often come before the verb. Practice forming your own sentences with different subjects and objects to get a feel for the verb's usage.
You'll encounter 'چکاندن' (chakāndan) in a variety of everyday situations, especially when discussing food, cooking, and anything involving precise liquid application. It's a practical verb that adds detail to descriptions.
In the Kitchen: This is perhaps the most common place to hear 'چکاندن'. Cooks and home chefs use it to describe adding ingredients like oils, vinegars, sauces, or flavorings in small, controlled amounts. Imagine a chef demonstrating how to garnish a dish: 'کمی روغن زیتون روی سالاد چکاند' (He dripped a little olive oil onto the salad). Or when making a dessert: 'شکلات آب شده را روی کیک میچکانیم' (We drip melted chocolate onto the cake).
Medical Settings: 'چکاندن' is also frequently used when referring to the administration of liquid medications, particularly eye drops, ear drops, or nasal sprays. A doctor might instruct a patient: 'روزانه دو بار در چشم راستتان قطره بچکانید' (Drip drops into your right eye twice a day). Or a parent might say: 'من برایت قطره بینی چکاندم' (I dripped nasal drops for you).
Describing Natural Phenomena: Sometimes, 'چکاندن' is used to describe liquids dripping naturally. For instance, after rain, you might hear: 'آب از برگ درختان میچکید' (Water was dripping from the tree leaves). Or if there's a leak: 'شیر آب چکه میکند و آب میچکاند' (The faucet is leaking and dripping water).
- Recipe Instructions
- 'پس از پخت، کمی روغن کنجد روی غذا بچکانید.' (After cooking, drip a little sesame oil onto the food.)
- Doctor's Advice
- 'هر شب قبل از خواب، دو قطره در گوشتان بچکانید.' (Every night before sleep, drip two drops into your ear.)
- Everyday Observation
- 'باران بند آمده بود اما هنوز از ناودان آب میچکید.' (The rain had stopped, but water was still dripping from the gutter.)
The recipe said to چکاندن the sauce artistically on the plate.
Exposure to Persian media, cooking shows, or conversations with native speakers will quickly familiarize you with the natural rhythm and contexts in which 'چکاندن' is used.
When learning 'چکاندن' (chakāndan), learners might make a few common mistakes related to its meaning, conjugation, and the specific type of action it describes. Being aware of these can help you use the word more accurately.
- Confusing with 'ریختن' (to pour)
- The most frequent error is using 'چکاندن' when a larger quantity of liquid is being poured. 'ریختن' is for pouring, while 'چکاندن' is specifically for dripping small amounts. For example, you wouldn't 'چکاندن' a whole bottle of water; you would 'ریختن' it. A chef might 'چکاندن' a few drops of oil for garnish, but 'ریختن' a larger amount for frying.
- Incorrect Conjugation
- Like many Persian verbs, 'چکاندن' has a distinct past stem ('چکانید') that learners sometimes mix up with the present stem ('چکان'). For instance, saying 'من چکوندم' instead of 'من چکوندم' (I dripped) or 'او میچکانید' instead of 'او میچکاند' (He/She is dripping).
- Overgeneralization
- Using 'چکاندن' for any liquid action, even when it doesn't involve dripping. If a liquid is flowing steadily, 'جاری شدن' (to flow) or 'ریختن' might be more appropriate. 'چکاندن' implies a distinct, often slow, drop-by-drop action.
- Ignoring the Subject/Object
- Forgetting to specify what is being dripped or who is doing the dripping. While context can sometimes imply these, explicit mention makes the sentence clearer. For example, 'او چکاند' is vague; 'او آب را چکاند' (He dripped water) or 'آب چکاند' (Water dripped) is more precise.
Mistake: He ریخت the drops of medicine into the eye.
Mistake: I ریختم the sauce onto the plate for decoration.
To avoid these mistakes, focus on the specific action of dripping. Practice conjugating the verb correctly in different tenses and pay close attention to the context when deciding between 'چکاندن' and similar verbs like 'ریختن'.
While 'چکاندن' (chakāndan) is specific to dripping, other Persian words describe liquid actions with varying degrees of similarity. Understanding these distinctions helps you choose the most precise term.
- ریختن (rikhtan) - To Pour
- Difference: This is the most common alternative but describes a general pouring action, not necessarily drop by drop. You pour a glass of water ('آب ریختن'), but you drip medicine ('قطره چکاندن').
- چکه کردن (cheke kardan) - To Drip (intransitive)
- Difference: This is the intransitive form of 'چکاندن'. 'چکاندن' is when someone *causes* something to drip (transitive), while 'چکه کردن' is when something *is* dripping by itself (intransitive). For example, 'شیر آب را چکاند' (He dripped the faucet - unlikely) vs. 'شیر آب چکه میکند' (The faucet is dripping).
- تزریق کردن (tazriq kardan) - To Inject
- Difference: This implies a more forceful and controlled introduction of liquid, usually with a syringe. While both involve liquid, 'تزریق کردن' is medical and direct, whereas 'چکاندن' is often gentler and involves gravity.
- قطره قطره ریختن (ghatreh-ghatreh rikhtan) - To pour drop by drop
- Difference: This is a descriptive phrase that is very close in meaning to 'چکاندن', often used when 'چکاندن' might feel too formal or specific. It emphasizes the 'drop by drop' aspect explicitly.
Example: Instead of 'He poured the oil', use 'He dripped the oil' for garnish.
Example: The leaky faucet چکه میکند (is dripping), but the plumber چکاند sealant into the crack.
Choosing the right word depends on the nuance: 'چکاندن' for deliberate dripping, 'چکه کردن' for natural dripping, and 'ریختن' for general pouring.

10 أسئلةPrimarily, yes. 'چکاندن' implies an action taken by a subject to cause liquid to drip. However, in some descriptive contexts, it can be used for natural processes where the cause is implied or understood, similar to how we might say 'the faucet is dripping' (which is intransitive, 'چکه کردن'), but sometimes used transitively in a descriptive sense. The intransitive form 'چکه کردن' is more common for purely natural, unintentional dripping.
Yes, it can, especially if the intent is to drip it in small, controlled amounts for decoration or specific flavor. If you were pouring a large amount of honey, you would use 'ریختن'. But for drizzling honey onto yogurt or a dessert, 'چکاندن' is appropriate.
'چکاندن' refers to dripping small, controlled amounts of liquid, often drop by drop. 'ریختن' means to pour, typically a larger quantity of liquid in a continuous flow. Think of 'چکاندن' as precise application and 'ریختن' as general pouring.
The present stem is 'چکان' (chakān), and the past stem is 'چکانید' (chakānid). For example, present: من میچکانم (I drip), Past: من چکوندم (I dripped). Always add the appropriate personal endings for each tense and person.
Yes, several! 'دل کسی را چکاندن' means to make someone's heart sink. 'اشک چکاندن' means to shed tears. 'از دهان کسی چکاندن' means to make someone's mouth water. These figurative uses add depth to the word.
Generally, no. 'چکاندن' is specifically for liquids. For powders or granular substances, you would use verbs like 'پاشیدن' (to sprinkle) or 'ریختن' (to pour).
'چکاندن' is transitive – it means to *cause* something to drip (e.g., the doctor dripped the medicine). 'چکه کردن' is intransitive – it means to drip by itself (e.g., the water is dripping from the ceiling). 'چکاندن' is the action of the agent, 'چکه کردن' is the action of the substance itself.
You use 'چکاندن' when the method of addition is specifically dripping small amounts for garnish, flavor accent, or artistic presentation. For example, 'چکاندن' balsamic glaze or chili oil for decoration.
It can be used in both formal and informal contexts, depending on the situation. In medical or technical descriptions, it's formal. In everyday cooking or conversation, it's neutral to informal. Its idiomatic uses can range from poetic to conversational.
It literally means 'to drip a few drops'. It's commonly used when adding small amounts of liquids like flavorings, oils, or medicines.

Precision is Key

Context Matters
The meaning can shift slightly based on context. Dripping oil onto food is different from dripping medicine into an eye, but the core action remains the same.
