When someone is کم سن (kam sen), it means they are young in age. Imagine a little child; they are کم سن. We use this word to describe people who are not old yet, like a teenager or a kid. It's a simple way to say 'young' when talking about age.
When we talk about someone's age in Persian, we often use specific adjectives. One common adjective is کم سن (kam sen). This literally means "less age" or "young age."
You use کم سن to describe someone who is young, often in comparison to others or in a general sense of being youthful. It's a straightforward way to express that someone is not old.
For example, you might hear someone say, "He is کم سن," meaning "He is young."
When we talk about language learning, we often use the CEFR levels. CEFR stands for the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
A B1 level means you're an intermediate learner. You can understand the main points of clear standard input on familiar matters regularly encountered in work, school, leisure, etc.
You can deal with most situations likely to arise whilst travelling in an area where the language is spoken. You can produce simple connected text on topics which are familiar or of personal interest.
You can describe experiences and events, dreams, hopes and ambitions and briefly give reasons and explanations for opinions and plans.
When talking about people, if someone is کم سن (kam sen), it means they are of a young age. You'll often hear this used to describe children, teenagers, or young adults. It implies youthfulness and often a lack of experience compared to older individuals.
For instance, you might say someone is کم سن و سال (kam sen-o sāl) to emphasize both their young age and relative inexperience. It's a common and practical way to refer to someone's age in everyday conversation.
When talking about someone being young or of a young age, you'll often encounter the term کم سن. This adjective literally translates to "low age" or "less age" and is used to describe individuals, particularly children or young adults, who are youthful.
For example, if you want to say "He is young," you would say "او کم سن است." It's a straightforward and common way to express someone's youthfulness in everyday conversation.
When talking about someone being "young" in Persian, there are a few ways to express it, and کم سن is a very common and practical option.
It directly translates to "less age" or "low age," which effectively conveys the idea of youthfulness. You'll hear it used frequently in everyday conversation to describe children, teenagers, or even young adults.
While there are other words like جوان (javan - young, youth) or نوجوان (nojavān - teenager), کم سن often carries a more direct and sometimes slightly informal nuance, particularly when emphasizing someone's relative youth compared to an older person.
It's important to remember that context often dictates which word is most appropriate, but کم سن is a solid and widely understood choice for expressing "young in age."
§ What "Kam Sen" Means
- Definition
- Of a young age; youthful. Think of it as meaning 'young' or 'underage' in many contexts. It literally translates to 'low age' or 'little age'.
When you hear or see "کم سن" (kam sen) in Persian, people are talking about someone who is young. It's a straightforward adjective used to describe a person's age. It's often used when you want to emphasize that someone is not old, or perhaps too young for something. It can carry a nuance of being 'underage' depending on the situation, but not always. It's a very common and practical word to know.
This word is useful in everyday conversations when you're talking about children, teenagers, or even young adults who might be considered young relative to a certain activity or responsibility. For example, if someone is too young to drive, drink, or vote, you might use "کم سن" to describe them.
Let's look at some examples to help you grasp its usage:
او برای این کار کم سن است.
Translation hint: He is too young for this job.
این بچه هنوز کم سن است.
Translation hint: This child is still young.
او با اینکه کم سن بود، خیلی مسئولیت پذیر بود.
Translation hint: Even though she was young, she was very responsible.
§ When to Use "Kam Sen"
You primarily use "کم سن" to describe people. It's not typically used for objects or animals. The context is crucial. For instance, if you're talking about a child who is not old enough to go to school, you could say "او برای مدرسه رفتن کم سن است" (Oo barā-ye madrese raftan kam sen ast) - "He is too young to go to school."
Consider these common scenarios where "کم سن" fits perfectly:
- Describing children: When you want to highlight that a child is still in their early years.
- Legal age: In discussions about legal ages for activities like driving, voting, or marriage, "کم سن" is often used to refer to someone who hasn't reached that age.
- Maturity: Sometimes, it's used to imply a lack of experience or maturity due to youth, although this is more of an implication than a direct meaning.
So, if you want to say someone is 'too young' or simply 'young' in a way that points to their actual age, "کم سن" is your go-to word. It's a simple, yet powerful adjective in Persian vocabulary.
§ Understanding 'کم سن'
- Word
- کم سن (kam sen)
- Part of Speech
- Adjective
- CEFR Level
- B1
- Definition
- Of a young age; youthful.
The Persian adjective "کم سن" (kam sen) literally translates to "low age" or "young age." It's used to describe someone who is young, often implying a lack of experience or maturity that comes with age. You'll hear this term frequently in everyday conversations.
§ How to Use 'کم سن' in a Sentence
"کم سن" behaves like most other Persian adjectives. It typically comes after the noun it describes, or it can be used with a linking verb (بودن - budan, to be) to describe the subject of a sentence.
Describing a Noun Directly
When "کم سن" directly modifies a noun, it follows the noun. No special prepositions are needed here.
او یک بچه کم سن است.
- Hint
- He is a young child. (lit. He one child young is.)
این دانش آموزان کم سن هستند.
- Hint
- These students are young. (lit. These students young are.)
Using with a Linking Verb (بودن - budan)
You can use "کم سن" with the verb "بودن" (to be) to state that someone is young. This is a very common construction.
او خیلی کم سن است.
- Hint
- He/She is very young. (lit. He/She very young is.)
آنها برای این کار کم سن هستند.
- Hint
- They are too young for this job/task. (lit. They for this work young are.)
§ Common Phrases and Nuances
While "کم سن" generally means "young," its usage can sometimes imply a certain naiveté or inexperience due to age. It's often used in contrast to someone who is "بزرگ" (bozorg - adult/old) or more experienced.
- کم سن و سال (kam sen o saal): This is a slightly more emphatic way to say "young in age." "سال" (saal) means year, so it literally means "young in age and years."
او هنوز کم سن و سال است.
- Hint
- He/She is still very young. (lit. He/She still young and year is.)
Prepositions are not typically directly attached to "کم سن" itself. Instead, they are used with other parts of the sentence to show relationships, just like in English.
§ Practical Application
When you want to express that someone is young, remember "کم سن." It's straightforward and commonly understood. For example, if you see a young person doing something impressive, you might say:
با وجود اینکه کم سن است، خیلی باهوش است.
- Hint
- Despite being young, he/she is very intelligent. (lit. Despite that young is, very intelligent is.)
§ Don't Confuse with "Koochak" (کوچک)
Many learners, especially at the B1 level, might be tempted to use the word "koochak" (کوچک), meaning "small," when they want to say "young." While a young person might indeed be small in stature, "koochak" refers to physical size, not age. "Kam sen" specifically means "young in age." Using "koochak" to describe someone's age would sound unnatural and incorrect to a native Persian speaker.
- Incorrect:
- او خیلی کوچک است. (He is very small.) - While grammatically correct, this doesn't convey "He is very young."
- Correct:
- او خیلی کم سن است. (He is very young.)
§ Using "Kam Sen" for Objects or Concepts
Another common error is applying "kam sen" to things that aren't living beings, like objects, buildings, or abstract concepts. "Kam sen" specifically refers to the age of a person or sometimes animals, indicating youthfulness. You wouldn't say a car or a house is "kam sen." For inanimate objects, you'd typically use words like "jadid" (جدید - new) or "tāzeh" (تازه - fresh/new).
- Incorrect:
- این ساختمان کم سن است. (This building is young.) - This sounds odd.
- Correct:
- این ساختمان جدید است. (This building is new.)
§ Overusing "Kam Sen" in Every Context of Youth
While "kam sen" is a great general term for "young in age," Persian, like English, has other ways to express youth depending on the nuance. Sometimes, describing someone as a "child" (بچه - bacheh) or an "adolescent" (نوجوان - nojavān) might be more specific than just saying they are "kam sen." "Kam sen" is perfect for a general statement about youth, but if you need to be more precise about the stage of life, consider other vocabulary.
- General:
- این بازیکن خیلی کم سن است. (This player is very young.)
- More Specific (if they are a child):
- این بازیکن بچه است. (This player is a child.)
Understanding these nuances will make your Persian sound much more natural. It's not just about knowing the definition of a word, but also knowing its appropriate usage and avoiding common pitfalls.
- Remember, Persian, like any language, has specific contexts for words.
- Don't directly translate concepts from English; always consider the Persian way of expressing an idea.
- Practice using "kam sen" in sentences about people to solidify your understanding.
آنها برای این کار خیلی کم سن هستند.
They are too young for this job.
با وجود اینکه کم سن است، خیلی با تجربه به نظر میرسد.
Despite being young, he seems very experienced.
§ Understanding 'Kam Sen' (کم سن)
- Definition
- Of a young age; youthful. This adjective is used to describe individuals who are not old, emphasizing their youth.
The Persian phrase کم سن (kam sen) literally translates to 'less age' or 'small age'. It's a straightforward way to talk about someone being young. You'll hear it often in everyday conversations when referring to children, teenagers, or even young adults.
او خیلی کم سن است برای این کار.
He is very young for this job.
بچه های کم سن نیاز به مراقبت بیشتری دارند.
Young children need more care.
§ When to use 'Kam Sen' (کم سن)
You should use کم سن when you want to specifically highlight someone's youth or young age in a neutral or slightly formal context. It's often used in contrast to someone who is older or when age is a relevant factor in a situation, like eligibility for a task or a level of experience.
او با وجود کم سن بودن، بسیار باهوش است.
Despite being young, she is very intelligent.
§ Similar words and when to use them
While کم سن is a great word for 'young', Persian has other words that convey similar ideas but with slightly different nuances. Knowing these will help you choose the best word for your context.
- جوان (javân): This is another common word for 'young'. It often implies a more general sense of youthfulness, vitality, or being in one's prime. It can refer to young adults and even people in their 30s or 40s who are still considered 'young' in a broader sense. Use جوان when you want to emphasize youth as a positive quality, or when talking about young people in general as a group.
جوانان آینده ساز کشور هستند.
Young people are the builders of the country's future.
- خردسال (khordsâl): This term specifically refers to a 'young child' or 'toddler'. It's more precise than کم سن when you're talking about very small children.
او با سه فرزند خردسال به سفر رفت.
She traveled with three young children.
- نوجوان (nojavan): This word means 'adolescent' or 'teenager'. If you want to specify someone is in their teenage years, نوجوان is the correct choice.
این فیلم برای گروه سنی نوجوانان مناسب است.
This movie is suitable for the teenage age group.
So, while کم سن (kam sen) is a general and useful term for 'young', consider the specific age group and the nuance you want to convey. If you're talking about very young kids, use خردسال. For teenagers, نوجوان is better. For a broader sense of youth or young adulthood, جوان is a good option. کم سن remains a solid, neutral choice when you simply mean 'of a young age'.

Similar to 'پیر', 'مسن' also indicates advanced age, standing in clear opposition to 'کم سن'.
Facile à confondre
Both refer to a young person, but 'کم سن' is a broader adjective for youth, while 'نوجوان' specifically points to the teenage years.
'کم سن' describes anyone who is young, regardless of a specific age range. 'نوجوان' refers to someone who is an adolescent or a teenager.
او یک دختر کم سن است که به سرعت بزرگ میشود. (She is a young girl who is growing up quickly.) نوجوانان زیادی به این ورزش علاقهمند هستند. (Many adolescents are interested in this sport.)
Both imply youth, but 'کم سن' emphasizes being under a certain age or inexperienced due to age, while 'جوان' can refer to a broader period of life after childhood, often with connotations of vitality.
'کم سن' directly means 'low age' or 'young in age.' 'جوان' can be an adjective meaning 'young' or a noun meaning 'youth/young person,' and might imply a greater degree of independence or maturity than 'کم سن'.
بچههای کم سن نباید تنها به خانه برگردند. (Young children should not return home alone.) این مرد جوان بسیار با استعداد است. (This young man is very talented.)
Both refer to very young individuals, but 'خردسال' is more specific to the age group before school, whereas 'کم سن' can apply to anyone considered young, including children and even young adults depending on context.
'خردسال' specifically refers to very young children, typically toddlers or preschoolers. 'کم سن' is a more general term for being young.
برای کودکان کم سن، بازی کردن از اهمیت بالایی برخوردار است. (For young children, playing is very important.) مهدکودک برای نگهداری از خردسالان است. (Kindergarten is for taking care of preschoolers.)

Comment l'utiliser
کم سن (kam sen) literally translates to "low age" or "young age." It's used to describe someone who is young, often implying a lack of experience or maturity due to their age.
It can be used in a neutral way to simply state someone's age:
- او خیلی کم سن است. (U kheyli kam sen ast.) - He/she is very young.
It can also carry a nuance of being too young for something, or not old enough:
- برای این شغل، او کمی کم سن است. (Baraye in shoghl, u kami kam sen ast.) - For this job, he/she is a little too young.
You'll often hear it in contrast with مسن (mosenn), meaning "elderly" or "old."
A common mistake is confusing کم سن with simply saying someone is a "child" or "kid." While it refers to young age, it's not a direct synonym for words like بچه (bache - child/kid) or کودک (kudak - child, formal).
For example, you wouldn't typically say:
- من یک کم سن دیدم. (Man yek kam sen didam.) - I saw a young one. (This sounds a bit awkward.)
Instead, you'd say:
- من یک بچه کم سن دیدم. (Man yek bache-ye kam sen didam.) - I saw a young child.
Another point: while it implies youth, it's not used to describe things as "new" or "fresh." For that, you would use words like تازه (taze).

This sentence means 'Despite his/her young age, he/she has a lot of experience.' The phrase 'با وجود سن کم' (despite young age) comes first, followed by the subject 'او' (he/she), and then 'تجربه زیادی دارد' (has a lot of experience).
