Contexto cultural

In Tehran, 'Ab o hava' is often a code for 'How bad is the pollution today?'. If someone says 'Hava kaseefe' (The air is dirty), they are talking about smog. In the north, weather is the main topic of life. People ask this to know if they can dry their rice or if the sea is calm for fishing. In the south, 'Ab o hava' is dominated by 'Khak' (Dust storms). Asking about the weather often implies asking if a dust storm is coming. For Iranians living abroad, asking 'Ab o hava oonja chetore?' is a way to feel connected to their family's daily reality in a different time zone.

Drop the 'Ab'
