To take a break or relax.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'afternoon nap' (Qailulah) is culturally significant, especially in summer. It is common for businesses to slow down between 2 PM and 4 PM. Hospitality dictates that a guest must be offered a place to rest immediately upon arrival, often accompanied by a glass of cold water or tea. The concept of 'Aaram-gah' (Resting Place) was central to palace architecture, designed with water channels and gardens to facilitate peace. With the rise of corporate culture, 'Aaram karna' is increasingly used in discussions about mental health and burnout.
