Bedeutung
To do something out of politeness or to follow social conventions and good manners.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The concept of 'Adab' is central to Iranian identity. It's not just about saying 'please' and 'thank you'; it's about a deep-seated respect for hierarchy and tradition. In Dari-speaking regions, 'Adab' is equally vital, often tied to the concept of 'Ehtiram' (respect) for tribal and family elders. Tajik culture retains many classical Persian forms of 'Adab,' often reflected in formal greetings and hospitality rituals. Even in Western countries, many Iranians maintain these customs to preserve their cultural heritage and pass 'Adab' to the next generation.
