Bedeutung
Used to inquire about the price of an item or service.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The concept of 'Ta'arof' means that the first time you ask 'Cheghadr hazineh darad?', the person might say it's free. You must ask at least three times to get the real price. In the capital, people are more direct due to the fast pace of life, but 'hazineh' remains the standard for services like Snapp (ride-sharing) or food delivery apps. In traditional bazaars, 'hazineh' is rarely used for goods. If you use it for a rug, the merchant might think you are asking about the cost of making it, not the price to buy it. In Afghanistan, 'Cheghadr hazineh darad?' is understood but 'Chand masraf darad?' (How much consumption/expense does it have?) is also very common.
The Service Rule
Always use 'hazineh' for things that involve people's time or labor.
The Ta'arof Trap
If they say it's free, don't believe them! It's just a way of being polite.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
10 FragenTechnically yes, but it sounds too formal. Better to ask 'Chande?' (How much?).
It is neutral-formal. It's perfect for professional settings.
'Gheymat' is for objects (books, fruit). 'Hazineh' is for services or total expenses (repairs, trips).
After they give the price, say: 'Takhfif ham darad?' (Does it have a discount?)
'Dare' is the colloquial, spoken version. 'Darad' is the formal, written version.
In a shop, no. In a social setting, yes. Always start with a greeting like 'Salam'.
No, for time use 'Cheghadr vaght gir ast?' (How much time does it take?).
It literally means 'It has no value (compared to you)'. It's a polite way to delay giving the price.
Say 'Hazineh-ye koll' (هزینه کل).
Yes, though 'masraf' is more common in Dari for 'cost'.
