Bedeutung
To capture an image using a camera.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Iranians often say 'Sib!' (Apple) instead of 'Cheese' to make people smile for a photo. In Dari Persian, 'aks gereftan' is also standard, but you might hear 'aks kashidan' in some dialects, though less common for digital photos. Tajik speakers use 'surat giriftan' (сурат гирифتن) frequently, using the word 'surat' instead of 'aks'. Younger generations in the West often mix English, saying 'aks-e selfie' or using 'post kardan' (to post) in conjunction with 'aks gereftan'.
Use 'Az'
Always remember the preposition 'az' when taking a photo of someone. 'Az man aks begir!'
Video vs Photo
Don't say 'aks gereftan' for a video. Use 'film gereftan'.
