خالدار
خالدار في 30 ثانية
- خالدار means spotted or dotted.
- Used for animals, clothing, skin (freckles/moles).
- Pattern of small, round marks.
- Persian adjective: noun + خالدار.
The Persian word خالدار (khāl-dār) is an adjective that literally translates to 'having spots' or 'marked with spots'. It's used to describe anything that is covered in small, round marks or dots. Think of the pattern on a ladybug, the freckles on someone's skin, or even a type of fabric with a dotted design. It implies a pattern of distinct, often small, circular blemishes or markings.
- Literal Breakdown
- The word is composed of 'خال' (khāl), meaning 'spot' or 'mole', and 'دار' (-dār), a suffix indicating possession or 'having'. Thus, 'khāl-dār' means 'having spots'.
- Common Applications
- You'll frequently encounter 'خالدار' when describing animals like dalmatian dogs, cows with distinctive markings, or even certain types of fish. In terms of human appearance, it can refer to skin that has freckles or moles. It's also used for objects or fabrics that have a dotted pattern. For instance, a scarf with small dots would be described as 'روسری خالدار' (rusari-ye khāl-dār).
این سگ خالدار است.
- Beyond Physical Appearance
- While primarily used for visual patterns, in some metaphorical or less common contexts, it might be used to describe something with many small, scattered imperfections or features. However, its primary and most frequent usage is for physical, visible spots or dots.

Using خالدار (khāl-dār) in sentences is straightforward. As an adjective, it typically follows the noun it modifies, or it can be used predicatively after a linking verb like 'است' (ast - is). The key is to understand what kind of object or being you are describing as spotted. Here are several ways to incorporate it:
- Describing Animals
- Animals are a very common subject for this adjective. For example, you might see a 'گاو خالدار' (gāv-e khāl-dār - spotted cow) or a 'پرنده خالدار' (parandeh-ye khāl-dār - spotted bird). When referring to a specific animal, you'd say:
آن گاو خالدار است.
- Describing People's Skin
- When talking about skin, 'خالدار' can refer to freckles or moles. It's important to note the context. If it's about moles, it might be 'پوستش خالدار است' (pustash khāl-dār ast - her/his skin has moles/is spotted). For freckles, it's also commonly used.
صورتش از کک و مک خالدار شده بود.
- Describing Objects and Fabrics
- Clothing, furniture, or any surface with a dotted pattern can be described as 'خالدار'. For example, 'یک فرش خالدار' (yek farsh-e khāl-dār - a spotted carpet) or 'یک لباس خالدار' (yek lebās-e khāl-dār - a spotted dress).
من یک شلوار جین خالدار دوست دارم.
- Using with Plurals
- When referring to multiple spotted items or beings, the adjective 'خالدار' remains unchanged.
آنها گاوهای خالدار هستند.
The word خالدار (khāl-dār) is quite common in everyday Persian conversation and media. You'll hear it frequently in contexts related to nature, fashion, and even everyday observations.
- Animal Descriptions
- In rural areas or when discussing livestock, 'خالدار' is a standard descriptor. For example, a farmer might talk about their 'گاوهای خالدار' (gāv-hā-ye khāl-dār - spotted cows) or a veterinarian might refer to a patient as 'سگ خالدار' (sag-e khāl-dār - spotted dog). This is probably one of the most frequent uses.
تصویر یک اسب خالدار در مجله بود.
- Fashion and Textiles
- In clothing stores or fashion discussions, you'll often hear about 'لباسهای خالدار' (lebās-hā-ye khāl-dār - spotted clothes) or 'روسری خالدار' (rusari-ye khāl-dār - spotted scarf). It's a common pattern for fabrics.
این پارچه طرح خالدار دارد.
- Describing Natural Features
- When people talk about their skin, especially if they have freckles or moles, they might use this word. For example, 'بینی من پر از کک و مک خالدار است' (bini-ye man por az kak-o-mak khāl-dār ast - my nose is full of spotted freckles). It's also used for natural markings on things like rocks or leaves.
- Everyday Observations
- It can be used for almost anything with spots. A child might point to a ladybug and say, 'این حشره خالدار است!' (in harshareh khāl-dār ast! - this insect is spotted!). Or someone might describe a piece of pottery with decorative dots as 'سفال خالدار' (sofal-e khāl-dār - spotted pottery).
While خالدار (khāl-dār) is a relatively straightforward adjective, learners might make a few common errors. Understanding these pitfalls can help you use the word more accurately and naturally.
- Confusing 'خال' (khāl) with 'خال' (khāl)
- The word 'خال' (khāl) can mean both 'spot' and 'mole'. While 'خالدار' typically refers to general spots or a dotted pattern, learners might mistakenly use it specifically for moles when a more precise term might be needed, or vice versa. For example, a person with many moles might be called 'خالدار', but if the context is specifically about medical moles, a more nuanced description might be preferred. However, in general conversation, 'خالدار' is often used for skin with moles.
Mistake: او یک خال بزرگ خالدار دارد.
- Incorrect Placement of the Adjective
- In English, adjectives usually precede the noun. In Persian, adjectives typically follow the noun they modify. Learners might mistakenly place 'خالدار' before the noun.
Mistake: خالدار سگ در حیاط است.
- Overgeneralization
- 'خالدار' refers to distinct spots or dots. Sometimes learners might use it for things that are simply textured or patterned in a less defined way. For instance, calling a fabric with a subtle weave pattern 'خالدار' might be inaccurate if it doesn't have clear, distinct spots.
- Using it with Abstract Concepts
- While 'خالدار' can sometimes be used metaphorically for scattered imperfections, its primary usage is literal. Using it for abstract concepts without a clear visual analogy might lead to confusion.
While خالدار (khāl-dār) is the primary word for 'spotted' or 'dotted', there are other words and phrases that can convey similar meanings or offer nuances. Understanding these alternatives helps in choosing the most precise term for a given context.
- Spots vs. Moles: 'خال' (khāl)
- As mentioned, 'خال' itself can mean 'spot' or 'mole'. If you are specifically referring to moles on the skin, you might use 'خال' more directly. For example, 'صورتش پر از خال است' (suratash por az khāl ast - her/his face is full of moles). 'خالدار' is the adjective derived from this, meaning 'having moles/spots'.
- Freckles: 'کک و مک' (kak-o-mak)
- For small, light brown spots on the skin, typically caused by sun exposure, the term is 'کک و مک' (kak-o-mak). While 'خالدار' can be used to describe skin with freckles (e.g., 'صورت کک و مک خالدار' - a freckled, spotted face), 'کک و مک' is more specific for freckles.
- Dotted Patterns: 'نقطهدار' (noqteh-dār)
- This is a very close synonym, especially for patterns. 'نقطه' (noqteh) means 'dot' or 'point'. So, 'نقطهدار' (noqteh-dār) also means 'dotted' or 'marked with dots'. It's often interchangeable with 'خالدار' when referring to fabric patterns or designs. For instance, a 'پارچه نقطهدار' (pārcheh-ye noqteh-dār) is a dotted fabric, much like a 'پارچه خالدار'.
The difference between 'خالدار' and 'نقطهدار' is subtle. 'خالدار' can sometimes imply slightly larger or more irregular spots, while 'نقطهدار' more strongly suggests small, uniform dots. However, in many contexts, they are synonymous.
- Marbled or Mottled: 'مرمرین' (mar-marīn) or 'لکهدار' (lakkeh-dār)
- 'مرمرین' (mar-marīn) means 'marbled', suggesting irregular patterns of color or veins, not distinct spots. 'لکهدار' (lakkeh-dār) means 'stained' or 'blotchy', referring to larger, irregular patches of color or dirt, which is different from the small, round marks implied by 'خالدار'.
- Patterned: 'طرحدار' (tarh-dār)
- This is a general term for anything that has a pattern. If something is 'طرحدار' (tarh-dār), it has a design, which could be spotted, striped, floral, etc. 'خالدار' is a specific type of 'طرحدار'.

Mastering the 'Kh' Sound

Remember that in Persian, adjectives like 'خالدار' usually come *after* the noun they describe. So, it's 'سگ خالدار' (dog spotted), not 'خالدار سگ'.
Distinguish from 'لکهدار'
While both describe marks, 'خالدار' is for patterns (natural or decorative spots), whereas 'لکهدار' means stained or blotchy, implying an undesirable mark.

أصل الكلمة
The word 'خالدار' is a compound word formed in Persian. It combines the noun 'خال' (khāl), meaning 'spot', 'mole', or 'blemish', with the suffix '-دار' (-dār), which is a common Persian suffix indicating possession or 'having'. Thus, 'خالدار' literally means 'having spots' or 'possessing spots'. The suffix '-dār' itself derives from the verb 'داشتن' (dāshtan - to have).
المعنى الأصلي: Literally 'having spots'.
Indo-Iranian (Persian)السياق الثقافي
The term 'خالدار' itself is neutral. However, when applied to human skin, context is important. While 'خالدار' can describe freckles or moles, it's generally used descriptively and not pejoratively. In medical contexts, more specific terms might be used.
In English, 'spotted' and 'dotted' are direct equivalents. 'Polka-dot' is a specific type of dotted pattern. 'Freckled' refers to small, light brown spots on the skin. 'Mole' refers to a specific type of skin mark.

الأسئلة الشائعة
10 أسئلةThe word 'خالدار' (khāl-dār) literally translates to 'having spots'. It is formed from 'خال' (khāl), meaning 'spot' or 'mole', and the suffix '-دار' (-dār), meaning 'having' or 'possessing'. So, it directly indicates the presence of spots.
Yes, 'خالدار' can be used to describe human skin that has freckles ('کک و مک') or moles ('خال'). For example, 'صورتش خالدار است' (suratash khāl-dār ast) could mean 'her/his face is spotted (with freckles/moles)'.
'خالدار' and 'نقطهدار' are often used interchangeably, especially for fabric patterns. However, 'نقطهدار' (noqteh-dār) emphasizes small, precise dots, while 'خالدار' can sometimes refer to slightly larger or more varied spots, and importantly, 'خالدار' can also refer to moles or natural blemishes.
Generally, no. 'خالدار' is a neutral descriptive term. While 'لکهدار' (stained/blotchy) has negative connotations, 'خالدار' simply describes a visual characteristic. However, context is always key.
Primarily, 'خالدار' is used for literal, visible spots. While it can be used metaphorically in literature or advanced contexts to describe scattered imperfections or nuances, its core meaning is visual and concrete.
To say 'spotless' or 'plain', you can use 'صاف' (sāf) for smooth surfaces, 'ساده' (sādeh) for plain fabrics or designs without patterns, or 'بدون خال' (bedun-e khāl) meaning 'without spots'.
Common examples include cows ('گاو خالدار'), dogs like Dalmatians ('سگ خالدار'), certain types of birds ('پرنده خالدار'), and even butterflies ('پروانه خالدار').
No, the adjective 'خالدار' does not change its form when used with plural nouns. For example, 'سگ خالدار' (spotted dog) and 'سگهای خالدار' (spotted dogs) both use 'خالدار'.
The suffix '-دار' is very common in Persian and is attached to nouns to create adjectives, meaning 'having' or 'possessing' that noun. For example, 'رنگدار' means 'colorful' (having color).
Typically, no. 'خالدار' describes physical, visible spots. Weather phenomena are usually described with different vocabulary (e.g., 'ابری' - cloudy, 'آفتابی' - sunny).

Summary
خالدار (khāl-dār) is a versatile Persian adjective meaning 'spotted' or 'dotted', commonly used to describe animals, fabrics, and skin markings like freckles or moles. It literally translates to 'having spots'.
- خالدار means spotted or dotted.
- Used for animals, clothing, skin (freckles/moles).
- Pattern of small, round marks.
- Persian adjective: noun + خالدار.
Mastering the 'Kh' Sound
The initial 'Kh' in 'خالدار' is a guttural sound made at the back of the throat, similar to the 'ch' in Scottish 'loch'. Practice making this sound by mimicking native speakers. Avoid pronouncing it like a simple 'k' or 'h'.
Adjective Placement
Remember that in Persian, adjectives like 'خالدار' usually come *after* the noun they describe. So, it's 'سگ خالدار' (dog spotted), not 'خالدار سگ'.
Distinguish from 'لکهدار'
While both describe marks, 'خالدار' is for patterns (natural or decorative spots), whereas 'لکهدار' means stained or blotchy, implying an undesirable mark.
Context is Key for Skin
When referring to skin, 'خالدار' can mean freckled or having moles. Use it naturally, and be aware that 'کک و مک' is specific for freckles.
