The Persian word پرهزینه (pronounced por-hez-i-neh) is an adjective that describes something as being very expensive or involving a high cost. It's a direct and commonly used term to express the financial burden or significant expense associated with something.
You'll hear and see پرهزینه used in a variety of contexts, from discussing personal purchases to large-scale projects and economic policies. It's a useful word when you want to emphasize the costly nature of something, implying that it requires a substantial amount of money, resources, or effort to acquire, maintain, or undertake.
- Breakdown
- The word is composed of two parts: 'پر' (por), meaning 'full' or 'much', and 'هزینه' (hezineh), meaning 'cost' or 'expense'. Together, they literally mean 'full of cost' or 'much cost', hence 'expensive' or 'costly'.
- Usage Scenarios
- It can be applied to tangible items like a car or a house, but also to abstract concepts like a project, a trip, or even a lifestyle. For instance, renovating an old house can be پرهزینه, or a luxury vacation might be described as پرهزینه.
این خانه بازسازی پرهزینهای داشت.
سفر به قطب شمال تجربهای پرهزینه است.
Understanding پرهزینه helps you grasp discussions about budgets, investments, and the economic feasibility of various undertakings. It's a key adjective for describing financial realities.
Using پرهزینه correctly involves understanding its grammatical role as an adjective and its placement within a sentence. It typically follows the noun it modifies, or it can be used predicatively after a linking verb like 'است' (ast - is).
- Placement and Agreement
- As an adjective, پرهزینه describes a noun. When it directly precedes a noun that is indefinite (meaning 'a' or 'an'), it often takes the indefinite marker 'ی' (i), becoming پرهزینهای. For example, 'a costly project' is 'پروژهای پرهزینه'. If the noun is definite ('the'), the adjective usually doesn't take the 'ی'.
- Using with 'است'
- You can also state that something 'is expensive' by using پرهزینه with the verb 'است' (is). For instance, 'The renovation was expensive' translates to 'بازسازی پرهزینه بود' (bazsazi porhezineh bud).
خرید این ماشین بسیار پرهزینه است.
آنها یک طرح پرهزینهای را آغاز کردند.
Mastering these sentence structures will allow you to effectively communicate the idea of high expense in various Persian conversations and writings.
You'll encounter پرهزینه in everyday conversations, news reports, business discussions, and even in literature. Its versatility makes it a common fixture in Persian discourse whenever the topic of cost arises.
- Economic and Business Contexts
- In news about the economy, you might hear about پرهزینه infrastructure projects, پرهزینه government initiatives, or the پرهزینه nature of certain industries. Business professionals might discuss پرهزینه marketing campaigns or the پرهزینه acquisition of new technology.
- Personal Finance and Lifestyle
- When friends discuss their expenses, one might say their new apartment is پرهزینه, or that planning a wedding is a پرهزینه affair. Travel discussions often involve descriptions of destinations as being پرهزینه to visit.
- Media and Entertainment
- Reviews of films might mention a پرهزینه production, or articles about celebrity lifestyles could describe their homes or events as پرهزینه.
ساخت فیلمهای علمی-تخیلی معمولاً پرهزینه است.
نگهداری از این مجموعه آثار هنری بسیار پرهزینه است.
By immersing yourself in these contexts, you'll naturally absorb how and when پرهزینه is used by native speakers.
While پرهزینه is a straightforward word, learners might sometimes misuse it or confuse it with similar concepts. Here are some common pitfalls to avoid:
- Confusing with 'گران' (Geran)
- 'گران' (geran) also means expensive, but it usually refers to the price of an item itself. پرهزینه implies a broader cost, including not just the purchase price but also ongoing expenses, maintenance, or the overall investment required. For example, a car might be 'گران' (expensive to buy), but its upkeep could be 'پرهزینه' (costly to maintain).
- Incorrect Indefinite Marker
- Forgetting to add the 'ی' (i) when پرهزینه modifies an indefinite noun can sound unnatural. For example, saying 'پروژه پرهزینه' (project expensive) instead of 'پروژهای پرهزینه' (a costly project) is a common error. However, if the noun is definite, like 'پروژه' (the project), then 'پروژه پرهزینه بود' (the project was expensive) is correct.
- Overuse or Underuse
- Some learners might overuse پرهزینه for any slightly expensive item, diminishing its impact. Conversely, others might shy away from it, using simpler terms when پرهزینه would be more precise. It's best used when the cost is notably high or involves multiple factors.
Mistake: این کتاب گران است، نه پرهزینه.
Mistake: ما یک خانه پرهزینه خریدیم.
Being aware of these common mistakes will help you use پرهزینه more accurately and effectively in your Persian communication.
While پرهزینه is a precise term, Persian offers several other words and phrases to express the concept of high cost, each with its own nuance.
- گران (Geran)
- Meaning: Expensive (primarily focusing on price).
Usage: This is the most common word for 'expensive'. It's used for items with a high price tag.
Example: این گوشی خیلی گران است. (This phone is very expensive.)
Comparison: پرهزینه implies more than just the price; it suggests overall cost, including maintenance, upkeep, or investment. - بسیار گران (Besyar Geran)
- Meaning: Very expensive.
Usage: A stronger version of 'گران', emphasizing a high price.
Example: خریدن یک ویلای ساحلی بسیار گران است. (Buying a beachfront villa is very expensive.)
Comparison: Similar to 'گران' but more intense. پرهزینه still carries the implication of overall financial commitment. - گرانقیمت (Geran-Gheymat)
- Meaning: High-priced, valuable.
Usage: Often used for luxury goods, art, or items where value and price are closely linked.
Example: او یک ساعت گرانقیمت هدیه گرفت. (He received a high-priced watch as a gift.)
Comparison: Similar to 'گران' but can imply a certain level of prestige or quality associated with the high price. پرهزینه is broader in scope. - مخارج زیاد (Makharej-e Ziad)
- Meaning: High expenses, considerable costs.
Usage: This is a phrase, not a single adjective. It refers to the existence of many costs or high expenses associated with something.
Example: زندگی در این شهر مخارج زیادی دارد. (Living in this city has high expenses.)
Comparison: This phrase directly addresses the 'expenses' aspect, making it very close in meaning to پرهزینه, especially when describing a situation or lifestyle. - هزینهبر (Hezineh-bar)
- Meaning: Costly, incurring expense.
Usage: Similar to پرهزینه, often used to describe activities, projects, or services that require significant financial outlay.
Example: این پروژه بسیار هزینهبر خواهد بود. (This project will be very costly.)
Comparison: Very close synonym to پرهزینه, sometimes used interchangeably. Both emphasize the financial burden.
گران vs پرهزینه: ماشین گران است اما نگهداری آن پرهزینه است.
Familiarizing yourself with these alternatives will enrich your vocabulary and allow for more nuanced expression in Persian.

Origine du mot
The word 'پرهزینه' is a compound Persian word. It is formed by combining the prefix 'پر-' (por-) meaning 'full of' or 'much' with the noun 'هزینه' (hezineh) meaning 'cost' or 'expense'. This construction directly conveys the idea of something being 'full of cost' or having 'much cost'.
Sens originel : Full of cost, much cost.
Indo-Iranian (Persian)Contexte culturel
While 'پرهزینه' is a neutral descriptor, using it excessively or inappropriately can sometimes imply criticism or judgment, especially in contexts where discussing financial hardship is sensitive. It's generally safe to use when discussing objective costs of goods, services, or projects.
In English-speaking cultures, 'expensive,' 'costly,' 'pricey,' and 'high-ticket' are common terms. The emphasis is usually on the monetary value. The Persian 'پرهزینه' can carry a similar meaning but also implies a broader sense of financial commitment or resource drain.
