Contexto cultural
The 'Daftarche-ye Rāhnamā-ye Konkur' is a culturally significant document that every high school student must master to apply for university. In Iranian IT startups, the English term 'Manual' or 'Documentation' is often used interchangeably with the Persian term. By law in Iran, imported electronics should ideally have a Persian 'Daftarche-ye Rāhnamā', though many still come with only English or Arabic ones. Iranians often use the lack of a 'manual' to complain about the complexity of relationships or children.
