Bedeutung
A hearty and audible burst of laughter.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In traditional Iranian circles, 'Vaghar' (dignity) is highly valued. A 'khande-ye boland' might be seen as a loss of self-control in very formal settings. The phrase is identical in Dari. In Afghan culture, communal laughter during 'Majlis' (gatherings) is a sign of hospitality and friendship. Tajik speakers use the same roots, though the script is Cyrillic (хандаи баланд). The cultural value of shared joy is very similar. Younger generations use 'khande-ye boland' freely in cafes and on social media, often using it to break the ice or show they are 'khaki' (unpretentious).
