معنی
Costing little money; inexpensive.
زمینه فرهنگی
In the bazaar, 'arzān' is a relative term. A price is only 'arzān' after you have negotiated it down from the initial 'gherān' (expensive) price. Younger generations often use 'moft' (free) to describe anything that is a great deal, even if it costs money. The proverb 'Hich arzāni bi-ellat nist' warns that if something is too cheap, there is likely a hidden defect. When a seller says 'Ghābel nadāre' (It's not worthy of you), they are not saying it's 'arzān.' It's a polite way to start the payment process.
The 'U' Rule
If you want to sound like a local in Tehran, change 'arzān' to 'arzūn.'
Quality vs. Price
Remember the proverb: if it's too cheap, ask why!
