معنی
To prepare oneself for an event or activity.
زمینه فرهنگی
The weeks before Nowruz are called 'Khāne-tekāni'. Everyone is 'āmāde šodan' for the new year by cleaning every inch of their home. Iranians take pride in being 'ready' for guests. If a guest arrives and things aren't ready, the host will apologize profusely using Ta'arof. In Dari, 'tayār šodan' (تیار شدن) is often used instead of 'āmāde šodan', though 'āmāde' is perfectly understood. Tajik Persian uses 'tayyor šudan' (тайёр шудан), reflecting the same compound structure but with a slightly different phonetic loanword.
The 'Shodan' Rule
Always remember: Shodan = Self. If you are the one becoming ready, use shodan.
Don't forget 'Barāye'
English says 'ready FOR'. Persian also uses 'barāye' (for). Don't skip it!
