دلشوره

deleshoreh

§ Don't confuse it with 'ترس' (tars) - Fear

Many learners initially translate 'دلشوره' directly to 'fear' because both involve a negative emotional state. However, 'دلشوره' is specifically about a gnawing apprehension or anxiety, often before an event, while 'ترس' is a more general term for fear, which can be sudden, intense, and in response to an immediate threat. Think of 'دلشوره' as a low-level, persistent hum of worry, whereas 'ترس' can be a sharp, loud alarm.

DEFINITION
ترس (tars): Fear, fright, terror.

او از سگ ترس دارد. (He has a fear of dogs.)

من برای امتحان دلشوره دارم. (I have anxiety about the exam.)

§ Using 'دلشوره داشتن' (dashtan) vs. 'دلشوره گرفتن' (gereftan)

Both verbs can be used with 'دلشوره', but they subtly change the nuance. 'دلشوره داشتن' means 'to have anxiety' or 'to feel apprehensive' as a continuous state or an ongoing feeling. 'دلشوره گرفتن' means 'to get anxious' or 'to become apprehensive', implying the onset of the feeling, often in response to something specific.

  • دلشوره داشتن (dashtan): Describes the state of having the feeling.
  • دلشوره گرفتن (gereftan): Describes the action of the feeling starting or taking hold.

او همیشه قبل از سخنرانی دلشوره دارد. (He always has anxiety before a speech.)

وقتی خبر را شنید، دلشوره گرفت. (When he heard the news, he got anxious.)

§ Overusing it for mild concern

While 'دلشوره' describes apprehension, it's generally for something a bit more significant than a fleeting, minor worry. If you're just slightly concerned about something trivial, 'نگرانی' (negarani - worry/concern) might be a more appropriate word. 'دلشوره' carries a heavier emotional weight, implying a deeper, more unsettling feeling about an outcome.

DEFINITION
نگرانی (negarani): Worry, concern.

من کمی در مورد وضعیت آب و هوا نگرانی دارم. (I have a little concern about the weather.)

دلشوره شدیدی برای عمل جراحی مادرم دارم. (I have intense anxiety about my mother's surgery.)
