Signification
To focus one's mind or efforts carefully on something.
Contexte culturel
The concept of 'deghat' is central to Persian miniatures and carpet weaving. A master is judged by their 'deghat' in executing tiny details. Teachers in Iran frequently use 'deghat konid' to maintain discipline and focus. It is one of the first phrases an Iranian child learns in school. Being 'ba-deghat' (attentive) to a guest's comfort without them speaking is a sign of high social intelligence in Iran. Classical poets like Hafez and Rumi often speak of 'deghat' in the sense of looking past the surface of things to see the spiritual truth.
Use with 'Be'
Always remember the preposition 'be'. Without it, the sentence feels incomplete to a native speaker.
Don't say 'Pay'
Never use the verb 'pardakhtan' (to pay) with 'deghat'. It's always 'kardan'.
