Bedeutung
To escape or run away from a dangerous situation.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In many Persian fables, the 'clever fox' or 'scared rabbit' is often described as 'pā be farār gozāshtan' to escape the lion. This phrase is a staple in Iranian comedy movies, often used when a character gets into a situation way over their head. While it means to flee, using it about yourself in a social setting can be a self-deprecating way to say you were scared or overwhelmed.
Conjugation Trick
Remember that only the last word 'gozāshtan' changes. The rest is like a fixed block.
Don't use for 'Leaving'
If you are just leaving a party normally, don't use this, or people will think you were scared of the host!
