Bedeutung
The act of imparting knowledge or skills to others.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Teachers are often called 'Baba' (Father) or 'Maman' (Mother) by very young students, or 'Amou' (Uncle) and 'Khaleh' (Aunt), reflecting the familial bond of teaching. In Dari Persian, 'yād dādan' is also the standard term, but 'āmokhtan' is used more frequently in poetic and formal literature to mean both teaching and learning. Tajik Persian uses 'yod dodan' (ёд додан) in Cyrillic script. The usage is identical to Iranian Persian. In Sufi literature, the 'Pir' (Elder) 'yād dādan' the 'Zekr' (Remembrance) to the disciple. Here, 'yād' takes on a spiritual meaning of remembering God.
The 'Be' Rule
Always put 'be' before the person. 'Be man yād bede' (Teach me).
Don't say 'Yād dādan be khod'
If you taught yourself, say 'Khodam yād gereftam' (I learned it myself).
