Significado
To stop and leave a vehicle in a specific place.
Contexto cultural
Finding a parking spot in Tehran is often called 'a miracle.' People often park in 'double' (park-e double) and leave their phone number on the windshield. In many streets, informal attendants manage parking. They are not official police but expect a small tip for 'guarding' your car. If two people arrive at a spot at the same time, they might engage in Ta'arof, each insisting the other take the spot. Parking in front of someone's 'Pol' (the ramp to their garage) is a major taboo and can lead to your car being towed or your tires deflated.
Drop the 'Ra'
Don't say 'Mashin RA park kardam' unless you want to sound like a textbook. Just say 'Mashin park kardam'.
Watch for 'Pol'
Never park in front of a garage door (Pol). It's the fastest way to get in trouble in Iran.
