الشرح درو کردن in your Level:

At the A1 level, you only need to know that درو کردن means 'to harvest' or 'to cut crops.' You can think of it as a special kind of 'cutting' for farmers. At this stage, you should focus on the basic present tense: من درو می‌کنم (I harvest). You might see it in simple picture books about farm animals or seasons. Just remember it’s about wheat (گندم) and farmers (کشاورز). Don't worry about the metaphors yet; just imagine a farmer with a tool in a field. It's a compound verb, so the 'kardan' part changes just like in 'kar kardan' (to work). Learning this word helps you describe nature and basic jobs. You can use it to say 'The farmer is busy' (کشاورز مشغول درو کردن است). It's a good word to introduce the concept of compound verbs because the noun 'dero' is very distinct. Practice saying it with 'gandom' (wheat) to fix it in your memory. Even at A1, knowing this word makes your vocabulary feel more grounded in real-world activities beyond just 'eating' and 'sleeping.'

At the A2 level, you should be able to use درو کردن in different tenses. You should know the past tense (درو کردم) to talk about what happened on a farm last summer. You will also start to see it in simple stories. At this level, you can begin to understand that it’s different from 'picking' fruit (چیدن). You might learn the word for the tool used, داس (sickle). You can also use it in the future tense to talk about plans: ما هفته آینده گندم‌ها را درو خواهیم کرد. This level is about expanding the context—knowing that it happens in a مزرعه (farm) or کشتزار (field). You should also be comfortable with the word دروگر (harvester/reaper) as the person doing the action. Start trying to use the word in sentences that describe the weather and the seasons, like 'When it is sunny, we harvest.' This helps you build more complex descriptions of the world around you. You're moving from just knowing the word to using it to tell a small story about rural life or the change of seasons.

At the B1 level, you should start using درو کردن metaphorically. This is where the word becomes really interesting. You can use it to talk about the 'results' of hard work: او پس از سال‌ها تلاش، موفقیت را درو کرد (After years of effort, he harvested success). You should also be familiar with the passive form درو شدن, which is common in news reports about the economy. For example, 'The wheat was harvested late this year due to rain.' Your understanding of the word should now include its cultural significance as a symbol of 'the end of a process.' You can use it in discussions about education (harvesting the results of studying) or sports. This is also the stage where you should distinguish it clearly from برداشت کردن, using the latter for more formal or varied agricultural contexts and درو کردن for more traditional or emotive ones. You can start to understand Persian proverbs that use this word. It's not just about farming anymore; it's about the universal law of cause and effect. Your sentences should become more nuanced, reflecting this deeper understanding.

At the B2 level, you are expected to understand درو کردن in literary and journalistic contexts. You should be able to follow a news segment about agricultural yields or a documentary about traditional Iranian life where this word is used frequently. You should also understand its use in describing 'sweeping' victories in politics or sports. At this level, you can explore the noun form درو in more depth, such as in the phrase جشن درو (harvest festival). You should also be able to use the verb in the subjunctive mood (باید درو کنیم) or conditional sentences. You might encounter it in contemporary Persian literature where it could symbolize the passage of time or the 'reaping' of a generation's hopes. Your vocabulary should also include related terms like کمباین (combine harvester) and how they have changed the way people درو. You should be able to argue about the pros and cons of traditional vs. modern harvesting methods using this verb. This level requires a blend of practical agricultural knowledge and the ability to handle abstract, figurative language with ease.

At the C1 level, you should appreciate the poetic and philosophical nuances of درو کردن. You will encounter it in the classical poetry of Hafez or Saadi, where it often serves as a metaphor for death or the inevitable arrival of the consequences of one's earthly life. You should be able to analyze how the 'harvester' (دروگر) is used as a personification of fate. Your usage should be sophisticated, perhaps using the verb to describe complex social phenomena, like a 'harvest' of discontent or the 'reaping' of long-term economic policies. You should also be aware of the archaic simple verb درویدن and its occurrences in historical texts. At this level, you can discuss the etymology of the word and its connection to other Indo-European languages. You should be able to write an essay on the importance of the harvest in Iranian folklore, using درو کردن and its derivatives with perfect accuracy and stylistic flair. You're no longer just 'using' the word; you're using it to evoke specific cultural and historical layers of meaning that only a high-level speaker would recognize.

At the C2 level, your mastery of درو کردن is indistinguishable from that of an educated native speaker. You can use it in highly specialized contexts, such as discussing the 'harvesting' of data in technology (though استخراج is more common, درو کردن can be used for stylistic effect). You understand the subtle difference in tone between using this word in a rural dialect versus a formal academic lecture on agrarian history. You can play with the word in puns or sophisticated wordplay in creative writing. You are familiar with the most obscure idioms and can interpret complex allegories in Sufi literature where the 'field' and the 'harvest' are central motifs for the human soul's journey. You can lead a discussion on how the imagery of درو کردن has evolved in Persian cinema and art. At this stage, the word is a versatile tool in your linguistic arsenal, allowing you to move seamlessly between the gritty reality of a farmer's life and the ethereal realms of mystical poetry. You have a deep, intuitive sense of the word's weight, its sound, and the various emotional responses it can trigger in an Iranian audience.

درو کردن في 30 ثانية

Primary meaning: To harvest or reap grains like wheat and barley using tools or machines.
Compound verb: Formed by 'dero' (harvest) + 'kardan' (to do). Conjugate only the second part.
Metaphorical use: Reaping the consequences of actions or 'sweeping' all prizes in a competition.
Cultural weight: Central to Persian literature and proverbs about justice, cause, and effect.

The Persian verb درو کردن (dero kardan) is a compound verb that primarily describes the agricultural act of harvesting, specifically the cutting of crops like wheat, barley, or rice using a tool like a sickle or a modern combine harvester. At its core, it represents the culmination of a growing season, the moment when the effort put into the earth is finally gathered. In a literal sense, you will encounter this word in rural settings, agricultural reports, and historical texts describing the life of the Iranian peasantry. The word درو refers to the harvest itself, and when paired with the auxiliary verb کردن (to do/make), it becomes the action of reaping.

Literal Usage: Farmers in the plains of Gorgan begin to درو کردن wheat in early summer. This involves physical labor and traditional songs that have been passed down for generations.

Beyond the fields, درو کردن carries a heavy metaphorical weight in Persian culture and literature. Much like the English proverb 'you reap what you sow,' Persians use this verb to describe the consequences of one's actions. If someone acts with kindness, they are expected to 'harvest' kindness later in life. Conversely, if one spreads discord, the 'harvest' will be bitter. This moral framework is deeply embedded in Persian consciousness, often appearing in the poetry of Saadi, Rumi, and Hafez, where the 'harvest' of the world is contrasted with the eternal harvest of the soul.

کشاورزان با داس‌های تیز مشغول درو کردن محصول گندم هستند.

In modern daily life, you might hear this word used in sports or competitions. When a team or an individual wins almost every available prize or medal, Iranians say they have 'harvested' the awards (جوایز را درو کردند). This implies a sweep or a dominant performance where nothing was left for the competition. It is a vivid way to describe total success, drawing on the image of a field completely cleared of its grain.

Metaphorical Label: In Persian ethics, life is the field, actions are the seeds, and the outcome is the درو. This makes the verb central to discussions about destiny and responsibility.

Whether you are discussing the Iranian economy's agricultural sector or analyzing a 13th-century poem, understanding درو کردن is essential. It bridges the gap between the most basic human activity—feeding oneself—and the highest philosophical inquiries into the nature of justice and time. It is a word of completion, finality, and results.

Using درو کردن correctly requires understanding its status as a compound verb. The first part, درو (harvest), is a noun, and the second part, کردن (to do), provides the verbal action. When conjugating, you only change the کردن part. For example, in the past tense, 'I harvested' is درو کردم, and in the present continuous, 'I am harvesting' is دارم درو می‌کنم. Note that in the present tense, the prefix می- goes between the two parts: درو می‌کنم.

ما فردا صبح زود برای درو کردن به مزرعه می‌رویم.

When the object of the sentence is specific, we use the postposition را. For instance, 'He harvested the wheat' becomes او گندم را درو کرد. However, in more general or abstract contexts, the را might be omitted if the noun is used generically. In metaphorical sentences, the structure remains identical. 'He harvested the results of his hard work' is او نتیجه‌ی تلاش‌هایش را درو کرد.

Sentence Structure 1: Agricultural: Subject + (Crop) + را + درو کردن (Conjugated). Example: ماشین‌های جدید گندم‌زار را سریع درو کردند. (The new machines harvested the wheat field quickly.)

In formal Persian, especially in literature, you might see the verb درویدن (derovidan), which is the simple (non-compound) version of this verb. While درویدن is rare in spoken Persian, it is very common in classical poetry. For example, Hafez might write بدرودن (to reap) instead of درو کردن. As a learner, stick to درو کردن for all modern communication, but keep an eye out for the root درو in poetic texts.

هر چه در این دنیا بکاری، در آن دنیا درو خواهی کرد.

One subtle point: درو کردن is specifically for crops that grow in fields (grains, hay, etc.). You would not use it for picking apples or grapes; for those, you would use چیدن (chidan). Using درو کردن for fruit suggests a violent or wholesale removal, which is why it's used for 'sweeping awards' but not for careful fruit picking. In a modern news context, you might hear: 'The athlete harvested all the gold medals' (ورزشکار تمام مدال‌های طلا را درو کرد).

The word درو کردن resonates differently depending on the environment. In the Iranian countryside, especially in provinces like Mazandaran, Gilan, or Khuzestan, it is a seasonal buzzword. During the harvest months, you will hear it in every conversation between villagers, on local radio stations giving weather updates for farmers, and in the markets where the first yields are discussed. It represents the transition from the anxiety of the growing season to the relief of the harvest.

News and Media: On the evening news (IRIB), you will frequently hear reports such as: "امسال بیش از ده میلیون تن گندم درو شد." (This year, more than ten million tons of wheat were harvested.) Here, the passive form درو شدن is used to discuss national production.

In urban centers like Tehran, you are less likely to hear it in its literal agricultural sense and more likely to hear it in sports commentary or political analysis. A sports commentator might scream, "تیم ملی همه حریفان را درو کرد!" (The national team mowed down all opponents!) This indicates a crushing victory. In politics, if a particular party wins a landslide victory in parliament, an analyst might say they 'harvested' all the seats in a particular district.

او در مسابقات جهانی شنا، تمام مدال‌ها را درو کرد.

Religious and philosophical discourses are another common place for this word. During Friday prayers or in ethical lectures, speakers often quote the famous line "هر چه کنی به خود کنی، گر همه نیک و بد کنی" or similar sentiments involving the 'harvest' of deeds. It serves as a stern reminder of the law of return. If you attend a Persian literature class or a poetry reading (Shab-e Sher), you will hear the word used to describe the inevitable passage of time—the 'grim reaper' concept exists in Persian thought too, though often depicted as 'the harvester of life' (دروگر هستی).

وقت درو کردن برنج در شمال ایران، زیباترین فصل سال است.

Finally, in the world of business and finance, particularly in startup culture, 'harvesting' profits or results is occasionally translated as درو کردن سود, though برداشت is more common there. However, درو کردن remains the more emotive, powerful choice for describing a bountiful and successful gathering of efforts.

One of the most frequent mistakes English speakers make when learning درو کردن is using it for the wrong types of plants. In English, 'harvest' is a broad term that covers wheat, apples, and even honey. In Persian, درو کردن is strictly for crops that are 'mown' or 'reaped' with a horizontal cutting motion, like grains or grass. If you say you are going to 'درو کردن' an apple tree, a native speaker will be very confused or think you are planning to cut the tree down entirely.

Mistake: Wrong Plant Type: Incorrect: من سیب‌ها را درو کردم. (I harvested the apples.)
Correct: من سیب‌ها را چیدم. (I picked the apples.)

Another mistake involves the conjugation of the compound verb. Learners often forget to place the می- prefix correctly in the present tense. Because it's a compound verb, the می- must attach to the auxiliary کردن. Saying می‌درو کردن or دروکردن‌می‌کنم is incorrect. The only correct form is درو می‌کنم.

اشتباه: کشاورز دارد گندم می‌درو کرد.
درست: کشاورز دارد گندم درو می‌کند.

There is also a confusion between درو کردن and برداشت کردن. While they are often interchangeable, برداشت کردن is a more formal and technical term that can apply to any crop, including fruits and vegetables. درو کردن is more visceral and specific to the act of cutting. If you are writing a technical agricultural report, برداشت is safer. If you are writing a story or talking about traditional life, درو کردن is much better.

Mistake: Over-extending Metaphors: While you can 'harvest' awards or results, you generally don't 'harvest' people or emotions in Persian unless you are being very poetic or dark. Stick to the established idioms like 'harvesting awards' or 'harvesting the fruit of labor'.

Finally, remember that درو کردن is an active process. If you want to say the harvest is ready, you don't use the verb; you say فصل درو است (It is harvest season). Using the verb implies the actual physical act of cutting is happening right now or will happen.

To truly master Persian, you need to know when to use درو کردن and when to opt for one of its cousins. The most common alternative is برداشت کردن (bardasht kardan). This verb is the standard term for 'to harvest' in modern, formal Persian. It is broader than درو کردن because it doesn't imply the method of harvesting. Whether you are digging up potatoes, picking cotton, or cutting wheat, you can use برداشت کردن.

Comparison: درو کردن vs. برداشت کردن: درو کردن: Specific to cutting grains/grass. Sounds more traditional and manual.
برداشت کردن: General for all crops. Sounds more modern, technical, and commercial.

Another related verb is چیدن (chidan). This means 'to pick' or 'to pluck'. You use this for fruits (سیب چیدن), flowers (گل چیدن), and even tea leaves. While درو کردن involves a sweeping, cutting motion, چیدن involves a selective, individual action. You would never 'درو' a rose unless you were destroying the whole garden.

ما برای چیدن پرتقال رفتیم، اما همسایه‌مان مشغول درو کردن جو بود.

For specific tasks like mowing a lawn, you might hear زدن (zadan - to hit/strike) used colloquially, as in چمن زدن (chaman zadan). While you could technically say درو کردن چمن, it sounds a bit overly dramatic, as if the grass were a vast wheat field. چمن زدن is the standard way to say 'mowing the lawn' in a suburban context.

Comparison: درو کردن vs. بریدن: بریدن (boridan): To cut anything (paper, cloth, meat). General purpose.
درو کردن: To cut specifically for the purpose of harvesting a crop. You 'cut' (boridan) the string, but you 'harvest' (dero kardan) the grain.

In summary, use درو کردن when you want to emphasize the traditional, sweeping act of reaping grains or when using powerful metaphors for reaping the results of actions. Use برداشت کردن for general farming talk, and چیدن for anything you pick by hand from a tree or bush.

How Formal Is It?

The root is related to the English word 'destroy' in a very distant ancestral sense, as both involve 'cutting' or 'tearing down,' though their paths diverged millennia ago.

Prefix Placement

Remember that in the present tense, the 'mi-' goes between 'dero' and 'kony'. It's 'dero mi-konam', not 'mi-dero konam'.

Crop Specificity

Only use this for grains, hay, and grass. For fruits, use 'chidan'.

Proverb Power

Using 'Har che bekari, haman ra dero mikoni' will make you sound very wise and fluent.

The 'O' Sound

The 'o' in 'dero' is short and crisp, like 'row' in English but without the 'w' glide.

Metaphorical Sweep

Use it to describe a landslide victory in sports or elections for a powerful effect.

News Keywords

When you hear 'gandom' and 'dero' together on the news, they are talking about the wheat harvest statistics.

Keep a space between the two parts of the verb to ensure correct orthography.

The Sickle Shape

Visualize the letter 'D' as a sickle to remember 'Dero'.

تحدٍّ

Try to use 'dero kardan' in three different ways: one about a farm, one about winning a game, and one about a proverb.

أصل الكلمة

Derived from the Middle Persian word 'drōd' or 'drōdan', which means to reap or mow. It has cognates in other Indo-Iranian languages.

المعنى الأصلي: The physical act of cutting grain with a sharp instrument.

Indo-European > Indo-Iranian > Iranian > West Iranian > Persian

السياق الثقافي

Be careful when using it metaphorically for people (e.g., 'mowing down people'); in the wrong context, it can sound violent.

While English uses 'reap' mostly in formal or biblical contexts, Persians use 'dero kardan' quite naturally in daily conversation for both literal and metaphorical meanings.

The poetry of Khayyam often mentions the reaper of time. Modern Iranian films like 'The Cow' (Gaav) touch on the rural importance of the harvest. Proverbs like 'Har che bekari...' are ubiquitous in Iranian schools.
