Bedeutung
To disclose a secret, a plan, or one's true intentions.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Iranian social life, keeping certain things 'hidden' (pūshīdeh) is often seen as a sign of modesty or strategic wisdom. 'Ru kardan' is therefore a significant act of opening up. Classical poetry often deals with the 'unveiling' of the beloved's face. While 'ru kardan' is modern, the concept of 'ru namūdan' (showing the face) is a central theme in Sufi poetry. In Iranian reality TV and game shows (like 'Mafia'), 'ru kardan' is used constantly to describe players revealing their roles or exposing others. During negotiations in Iran, it is common to hold back information until a relationship of trust is built. 'Ru kardan' too early can be seen as a lack of experience.
