Significado
A small book for writing notes.
Contexto cultural
The 'Daftarcheh-ye Bimeh' was for decades the most important notebook an Iranian owned, containing their entire medical history and insurance credits. The 'Bayāz' is a traditional oblong notebook used by poets. It is held horizontally, unlike modern notebooks. Students are often required to have separate 'Daftar' for each subject, but a single 'Daftarcheh Yāddāsht' for all homework reminders. High-end stationery shops in Tehran (like those in Book Garden) have made 'fancy' notebooks a popular gift among young adults.
The Diminutive Power
Remember that '-cheh' always makes things smaller. Ketāb (book) -> Ketābcheh (booklet).
Laptop Confusion
Never use 'Daftarcheh' to mean a laptop. Use 'Lāp-top'.
