الشرح فداکاری کردن in your Level:

At the A1 level, you don't need to use the word 'فداکاری کردن' (fadākāri kardan) often, but it's good to recognize it as a word for 'being very, very kind' or 'giving something big.' Think of it like a superhero word. In Persian, we have simple verbs like 'dādan' (to give) or 'komak kardan' (to help). 'Fadākāri kardan' is like a super-version of helping. You might hear it in stories about moms and dads. For now, just remember that 'fadā' means sacrifice and 'kardan' means to do. If you see it, just know it means someone did something very special for someone else. You won't be expected to use it in your daily 'hello' and 'how are you' conversations, but you might see it in a picture book about a hero. It's a compound verb, which means it has two parts that work together to make one meaning. This is a common pattern in Persian that you will see a lot as you learn more words.

At the A2 level, you are starting to learn more complex verbs. 'فداکاری کردن' is a great example of a compound verb. You already know 'kardan' (to do), so you only need to learn the noun 'fadākāri' (sacrifice). You can use this word when talking about people you admire, like your parents or a famous person. For example, you can say 'Mādar-e man fadākāri mikonad' (My mother sacrifices). You will mostly use this in the present and past simple tense. It's important to start noticing that this word is used for 'big' things, not small things. If you give a friend a pencil, that's 'komak' (help). If you give your only sandwich to a hungry person, that's 'fadākāri.' You might also start seeing it in simple news stories or classroom lessons about history. Try to remember the preposition 'barāye' (for) because we almost always sacrifice *for* someone or something.

At the B1 level, you should be able to use 'فداکاری کردن' (fadākāri kardan) comfortably in your speaking and writing. This is the level where you discuss social issues, family values, and personal stories. You should understand that this word implies a moral choice. You can use it in the present continuous (dāram fadākāri mikonam) or the subjunctive (bāyad fadākāri konam). You should also be able to distinguish it from 'ghorbāni kardan' (ritual sacrifice). At this level, you can use it to describe the themes of a movie or a book. For instance, 'The main character sacrificed for his family.' You are also learning to use the noun form 'fadākāri' on its own. For example, 'Fadākāri-ye u bozorg bud' (His sacrifice was great). This word will help you express deeper emotions and more complex thoughts about duty and love in Persian society.

At the B2 level, you should have a nuanced understanding of 'فداکاری کردن.' You can use it in complex sentence structures, including conditional sentences ('If he hadn't sacrificed, we wouldn't be here'). You should also be familiar with its synonyms like 'az khod-gozashtegi' and know when to use which. You can participate in debates about whether sacrifice is always a good thing or when it becomes harmful. Your vocabulary should include related terms like 'fadākārāneh' (sacrificially/heroically). You will hear this word in political discourse, formal literature, and complex social commentaries. You should be able to recognize the word in various tenses and moods without hesitation. You might also start noticing how it's used in classical Persian poetry, though the structure might be slightly different. You are expected to use it with the correct prepositions like 'dar rāh-e' (in the path of) for formal contexts.

At the C1 level, 'فداکاری کردن' is a tool for professional and academic expression. You understand the sociological and psychological implications of the word within Iranian culture. You can use it to analyze characters in Persian literature, such as the works of Shahnameh or modern novels. You are aware of the subtle differences between 'fadākāri,' 'isār,' and 'jānfashāni.' You can use the word metaphorically and in very formal speeches. You might explore the concept of 'fadākāri' in the context of Iranian 'Ta'arof' or social hierarchies. Your writing should show a sophisticated command of the verb, using it to build persuasive arguments about altruism or national identity. You can also identify the word in fast-paced news broadcasts or complex legal/ethical discussions. You understand the historical evolution of the term and its root in the concept of 'Fadā' (ransom/redemption).

At the C2 level, you possess a native-like grasp of 'فداکاری کردن.' You can use it with perfect precision in any register, from street slang (where it might be used ironically) to the highest forms of classical poetry. You understand the deep intertextuality of the word—how it connects to thousands of years of Persian history, from the myths of Arash the Archer to the modern-day 'defenders of the shrine.' You can discuss the etymological roots and how the word has shifted in meaning over centuries. You can use it to write elegant essays or give powerful speeches that move an audience. You are sensitive to the cultural 'weight' the word carries and can use it to navigate delicate social situations. For you, the word is not just a verb; it is a window into the Iranian soul. You can also recognize and use rare, archaic forms related to the root 'F-D-Y' that might appear in ancient manuscripts.

فداکاری کردن في 30 ثانية

A compound verb meaning 'to sacrifice' for a noble cause or person.
Consists of the noun 'fadākāri' (sacrifice) and the auxiliary 'kardan' (to do).
Highly positive and respectful register, used for parents, heroes, and martyrs.
Commonly used with the preposition 'barāye' (for) to show the beneficiary.

The Persian verb فداکاری کردن (fadākāri kardan) is a profound compound verb that transcends the simple English translation of 'to sacrifice.' At its core, it describes a deliberate, conscious decision to give up something deeply valuable—be it time, money, health, or even life—for the sake of another person, a community, or a noble cause. Unlike the ritualistic sacrifice of animals (often denoted by the word ghorbāni), فداکاری کردن is almost exclusively used for human altruism and moral heroism.

Altruism: The act of putting others' needs before one's own, often involving a personal loss.
Compound Verb: A verb formed by a noun or adjective combined with an auxiliary verb like 'kardan' (to do).

In Iranian culture, this word carries a heavy emotional and historical weight. It is the word used to describe parents who work multiple jobs to pay for their children's education, or the legendary 'Dehghān-e Fadākār' (The Brave Farmer) who burned his clothes to warn a train of a landslide. It implies a level of selflessness that is highly revered in Persian literature and social ethics. When you use this word, you are not just talking about a trade-off; you are talking about a virtuous act of the heart.

مادران همیشه برای خوشبختی فرزندانشان فداکاری می‌کنند.
(Mothers always sacrifice for their children's happiness.)

The usage of this word is common in both formal and informal settings, though it is particularly prevalent in stories of heroism, national history, and family discussions. It is a 'high-register' concept often taught to children to instill values of empathy and social responsibility. It is not used for minor inconveniences; for example, you wouldn't use it if you just missed a TV show to help a friend, but you would if you gave up your college savings to help that friend pay for surgery.

Historically, the term has been used to describe martyrs and national heroes who defended the borders of Iran. In modern contexts, it is frequently applied to medical professionals, firefighters, and teachers working in remote areas. The word evokes a sense of respect and 'ehterām' from the listener. Understanding this word is key to understanding the Iranian ethos of 'Jānfashāni' (giving one's soul).

سربازان برای دفاع از میهن فداکاری کردند.
(The soldiers sacrificed to defend the homeland.)

Using فداکاری کردن correctly requires understanding its grammatical structure as a compound verb. The noun part, 'fadākāri', remains unchanged, while the auxiliary verb 'kardan' (to do) is conjugated according to the subject, tense, and mood. The most common preposition used with this verb is برای (barāye), meaning 'for,' to indicate the beneficiary of the sacrifice.

Present Tense: می‌کنم، می‌کنی، می‌کند... (I sacrifice, you sacrifice...)
Past Tense: کردم، کردی، کرد... (I sacrificed, you sacrificed...)

In more formal or literary contexts, you might see the preposition در راهِ (dar rāh-e), which literally means 'in the path of.' This is often used when the sacrifice is for an abstract concept like freedom, truth, or the homeland. For example, 'sacrifice in the path of freedom' would be 'fadākāri kardan dar rāh-e āzādi.'

او تمام زندگی‌اش را برای علم فداکاری کرد.
(He sacrificed his entire life for science.)

When you want to specify what was sacrificed, you usually mention it before the verb with the object marker 'rā' if it's a specific thing, though often the verb is used intransitively to describe the general act of being sacrificial. For example, 'He sacrificed his time' would be 'Vaghtash rā fadākāri kard' (though 'sarf-e fadākāri kard' might be more idiomatic in some cases).

In the imperative mood (giving a command or advice), you would say فداکاری کن (Fadākāri kon!). However, because sacrifice is such a heavy concept, it's rarely used as a casual command. It is more often found in inspirational speeches or moral lessons. In poetry, the word might be split or rearranged, but in standard spoken Persian, the noun and verb stay together.

آیا حاضری برای دوستانت فداکاری کنی؟
(Are you ready to sacrifice for your friends?)

You will encounter فداکاری کردن in several distinct areas of Iranian life. First and foremost is in the educational system. Iranian schoolbooks are filled with stories of historical figures and everyday people who exhibited 'fadākāri.' The story of Rizali Khajavi (the Brave Farmer) is a staple of primary education, ensuring every Persian speaker knows this word from a young age.

News Media: Used to describe first responders, medical staff during crises, or citizens performing heroic acts.
Cinema & TV: Common in war dramas (Sacred Defense cinema) and family melodramas.

In the news, when a firefighter loses their life or is injured while saving others, the headlines will invariably use the term 'fadākāri.' It is a way for society to pay its highest respects. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the phrase 'fadākāri-ye kādr-e darmān' (the sacrifice of the medical staff) was heard daily on television and radio.

تلویزیون گزارشی درباره فداکاری آتش‌نشانان پخش کرد.
(The TV broadcasted a report about the sacrifice of the firefighters.)

In literature and poetry, the concept is often personified or linked to the motif of the moth and the flame (shama' o parvāneh), where the moth sacrifices itself for the light. While the verb 'fadākāri kardan' is more modern/prose-oriented, the root 'fadā' is ancient. You will also hear it in political speeches, especially on national holidays like the anniversary of the revolution or during memorials for war veterans.

Lastly, in family settings, it is used to express gratitude. A grown child might say to their elderly parents, 'Mamnoonam barāye tamām-e fadākāri-hā-yi ke kardid' (I am grateful for all the sacrifices you made). It is a word that builds bridges of emotional debt and appreciation between generations.

داستان‌های قدیمی پر از قهرمانانی است که فداکاری کردند.
(Old stories are full of heroes who sacrificed.)

One of the most frequent mistakes learners make is confusing فداکاری کردن with قربانی کردن (ghorbāni kardan). While both can translate to 'to sacrifice' in English, their usage is strictly separated in Persian. Ghorbāni kardan refers to the ritual slaughter of an animal (like on Eid al-Adha) or, metaphorically, to make someone a victim. If you use ghorbāni kardan when talking about a mother's love, it might sound like she is being slaughtered or victimized, which is incorrect.

Fadākāri: Positive, noble, voluntary sacrifice of self-interest.
Ghorbāni: Ritualistic sacrifice or becoming a victim of circumstances.

Another mistake is using the word for minor things. As mentioned before, فداکاری کردن is a heavy word. If you say you 'sacrificed' your sleep to watch a football game, it sounds overly dramatic and almost sarcastic. In such cases, it's better to use 'az khāb gozashtan' (passing on sleep). Reserve fadākāri for genuine acts of altruism.

اشتباه: من برای تماشای فیلم فداکاری کردم.
(Mistake: I sacrificed to watch the movie - too dramatic.)

Grammatically, some learners forget that this is a compound verb and try to pluralize 'fadākāri' while it's part of the verb. While you can say 'fadākāri-hā-ye u' (his sacrifices), when using it as a verb, it is always 'fadākāri kard' (he sacrificed), not 'fadākāri-hā kard' (though the latter is technically possible in poetic speech, it's not standard for the verb form).

Finally, ensure you use the correct auxiliary. Some learners might try to use 'shodan' (to become), but 'fadākāri shodan' is not a standard construction. It is an action you 'do' (kardan). If you want to say someone 'was sacrificed' (passive), you would typically use a different construction like 'ghorbāni shod' or 'fadā shod,' but 'fadākāri' itself is almost always active.

درست: او جانش را فدا کرد.
(Correct: He sacrificed his life - 'fadā kardan' is a shorter, intense version.)

Persian has a rich vocabulary for selflessness. While فداکاری کردن is the most common B1-level word, there are several alternatives depending on the register and the specific nuance of the sacrifice.

از خودگذشتگی کردن: Literally 'to pass from oneself.' It is a very common synonym, often used interchangeably with fadākāri, focusing on the act of letting go of ego.
ایثار کردن: A more formal, Arabic-rooted word often used in religious or official contexts. It implies a very high level of spiritual sacrifice.
جان‌فشانی کردن: Specifically means sacrificing one's life or working with extreme effort to the point of exhaustion for a cause.

If you want to express 'giving up' something in a less heroic sense, you might use صرف‌نظر کردن (sarf-e nazar kardan), which means to waive or forgo something, like a right or a plan. For example, 'I gave up my trip' is 'az safaram sarf-e nazar kardam,' not 'fadākāri kardam.'

او با ایثار فراوان به فقرا کمک کرد.
(With great sacrifice/altruism, he helped the poor.)

Another related term is مایه گذاشتن (māye gozāshtan), which is more idiomatic and means 'to put in' energy, time, or resources into something. It’s often used in work or relationships: 'He really put himself out there for this project' (Barāye in projeh māye gozāsht).

Understanding these nuances helps you sound more like a native. While a native will understand you if you use fadākāri kardan for everything, choosing az khod-gozashtegi for a romantic partner or isār for a humanitarian worker shows a deeper mastery of the language's emotional landscape.

باید از خودمان مایه بگذاریم تا موفق شویم.
(We must put in effort/resources to succeed.)
