Bedeutung
To make something free from dirt.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'Khane-tekani' ritual before Nowruz is the most significant cultural event involving cleaning. It's not just about hygiene; it's a spiritual cleansing of the home. Cleanliness is considered 'half of faith' (Al-nazafatu minal-iman). This religious backing makes 'tamiz kardan' a daily moral duty for many. Iranians take great pride in a clean home for guests. A host might apologize for a 'dirty' house as a form of Ta'arof, even if it's spotless. In big cities like Tehran, 'Ruz-e Pak' (Clean Day) initiatives encourage citizens to clean up local parks and streets.
The 'Ra' Rule
When cleaning a specific object (the table, the room), don't forget to add 'ra' (or 'ro' in speech) after the object: 'Miz ro tamiz kon!'
Don't say 'Tamiz hastam'
To say 'I am cleaning,' use the verb 'mikonam.' 'Tamiz hastam' means 'I am a clean person' (personality trait).
