لباس تمیز

lbas tmyz

Clean clothes.

Significado

Garments that are free from dirt, stains, or impurities.

🌍

Contexto cultural

Cleanliness is considered 'half of faith' (النظافة من الإیمان) in the Islamic tradition which heavily influences Iranian culture. This makes 'لباس تمیز' a moral as well as a hygienic requirement. In the fast-paced life of Tehran, dry cleaners (khoshk-shouyi) are ubiquitous. People often drop off their formal 'lebas-e tamiz' to be professionally handled for weddings. Ancient Persian culture emphasized the battle between purity and pollution. Keeping one's garments clean was a way to side with the forces of light (Asha). In Afghanistan, the phrase is also used, but 'پاک' (pāk) is used much more frequently than 'تمیز' in everyday speech to mean clean.

💡

The Ezafe is Key

Always remember the small 'e' sound between the words. Without it, it sounds like two random words.

💬

Ironing Matters

In Iran, 'tamiz' often implies 'ironed' (otu-shodeh). A wrinkled shirt might be called 'dirty' by a strict grandmother!

⚠️

Don't say 'Clean Person'

To call a person clean, use 'Adam-e tamiz', but 'Lebas-e tamiz' is strictly for the clothes.

🎯

Use with 'Moratab'

Pairing 'tamiz' with 'moratab' (tidy) makes you sound much more like a native speaker.

Yes! 'Khane-ye tamiz' (clean house) is very common.

It can be both. 'Lebas' is often used as a collective noun for 'clothing', but 'lebas-ha' is specifically 'clothes'.

The opposite is 'kasif' (کثیف), meaning dirty.

You can say: 'لطفاً این لباس‌ها را بشویید' (Please wash these clothes).

No, 'tamiz' is physical cleanliness. 'Pak' is spiritual or ritual purity.

It's neutral. In very formal settings, you might hear 'pushesh' (covering/attire).

Yes, if you are looking for clean, non-display items.

It's a short 'e' sound, like the 'e' in 'bed'.
