To attend an educational institution for learning.
Contexto cultural
The school year in Iran starts on the 1st of Mehr (late September). This day is culturally significant and often called 'The Season of Education'. In Afghanistan, the phrase 'Madrese raftan' has faced significant political challenges, especially regarding girls' education, making it a powerful political statement. While Tajik Persian uses similar terms, the influence of the Soviet education system remains in the structure of their schools (called 'Maktab' or 'Gimnaziya'). For Iranians living abroad, 'Madrese raftan' often refers to 'Madrese-ye Farsi' (Persian School) held on weekends to keep the language alive.
