Explication شارژ in your Level:
At the A1 level, you only need to know 'شارژ' in the context of your mobile phone. It is a very important word because everyone uses smartphones. You should learn the phrase 'شارژ ندارم' (I don't have charge) which means your phone is dead. You should also know 'شارژر' (charger). If you go to a cafe, you can ask 'شارژر دارید؟' (Do you have a charger?). This is a basic survival word for modern life in Iran. It is easy to remember because it sounds like the English word 'charge'. You don't need to worry about the building fees or metaphorical meanings yet. Just focus on your phone and its battery. When you see a battery icon on a screen, that is 'شارژ'. If the icon is red, you need 'شارژ کردن'.

شارژ en 30 secondes

  • شارژ primarily means the electrical energy in a battery. Without it, your electronic devices like phones and laptops cannot function at all.
  • In the context of mobile phones, it refers to the prepaid credit or balance you buy to make calls, send texts, or use the internet.
  • In Iranian apartment living, it refers to the monthly maintenance fee paid by residents for shared services like cleaning, water, and electricity.
  • Metaphorically, it describes a person's energy level or mood, similar to 'recharging' oneself through rest, hobbies, or positive social interactions.

The Persian word شارژ (shārzh) is a versatile loanword, primarily originating from the French 'charge'. In its most literal sense, it refers to the electrical energy stored in a battery or a device. Whether you are talking about your smartphone, a laptop, or an electric car, this is the standard term used across all Persian-speaking regions. However, its utility in modern Persian extends far beyond the realm of physics and electronics. It has become a cornerstone of daily life, particularly in the digital and financial sectors. For instance, it is the universal term for 'credit' on a prepaid SIM card or an internet account. When a user says they need to 'buy charge' (شارژ خریدن), they are referring to purchasing airtime or data. This dual meaning—physical electricity and financial credit—is a crucial distinction for learners to master.

Physical Electricity
The amount of power remaining in a battery-operated device like a mobile phone or power bank.
Financial Credit
The balance available on a prepaid telecommunications card or a digital wallet for specific services.
Metaphorical Energy
A person's mental or physical stamina, often used in the context of needing rest or motivation.

گوشی من فقط ۵ درصد شارژ دارد و ممکن است هر لحظه خاموش شود.

— My phone only has 5 percent charge and might turn off at any moment.

Beyond the technical, the word has permeated colloquial speech as a metaphor for human vitality. If someone is feeling energetic and ready for a challenge, they might be described as 'full of charge' (پرشارژ). Conversely, after a grueling work week, one might feel 'uncharged' or depleted. This metaphorical usage mirrors the English 'recharging one's batteries'. In social contexts, 'شارژ کردن' can also mean to motivate or uplift someone's spirits. For example, a positive comment from a teacher can 'charge' a student's confidence. This layer of meaning adds a rich emotional texture to an otherwise technical term.

دیدن دوستان قدیمی واقعاً روحیه مرا شارژ کرد.

— Seeing old friends really recharged my spirit.

In the context of modern infrastructure, 'شارژ' is also used for electronic toll systems and public transport cards. When you enter a highway or board a metro, your card must have enough 'charge' (balance). The process of adding money to these cards is universally called 'شارژ کردن'. This makes the word indispensable for navigating any major Iranian city. You will encounter it at kiosks, ATMs, and within mobile banking applications. The word's adaptability shows how Persian absorbs foreign technical terms and reshapes them to fit a wide array of cultural and practical needs.

باید کارت مترویم را ده هزار تومان شارژ کنم.

— I need to charge my metro card with ten thousand tomans.
Usage in Apps
Buttons in Persian apps usually say 'خرید شارژ' for buying mobile credit.
Automotive Context
Refers to the battery health or the charging process of electric vehicles (EVs).

Using the word شارژ correctly involves understanding its common collocations and the auxiliary verbs it pairs with. The most frequent pairing is with the verb 'کردن' (to do/make), forming the compound verb 'شارژ کردن' (to charge). This verb is used for both plugging in a device and adding money to an account. For example, 'گوشی را شارژ کن' (Charge the phone) and 'سیم‌کارت را شارژ کن' (Charge the SIM card) use the exact same structure. Another essential verb is 'داشتن' (to have), used to describe the current state: 'شارژ دارد' (It has charge) or 'شارژ ندارد' (It has no charge/credit).

لپ‌تاپ من اصلاً شارژ نگه نمی‌دارد.

— My laptop doesn't hold a charge at all.

When a battery is depleted, Persian speakers use the verb 'تمام شدن' (to finish/run out). You would say 'شارژم تمام شد' to mean 'My battery died' or 'I ran out of credit'. Interestingly, in colloquial Persian, people often omit the word 'battery' or 'credit' and simply use the possessive form of 'charge'. 'شارژت چقدر است؟' (How much is your charge?) can ask about either your phone's battery percentage or your remaining SIM balance depending on the situation. To be more specific about the source of power, you use the word 'شارژر' (shārzher) for the physical charger device.

می‌توانم از شارژر شما استفاده کنم؟

— Can I use your charger?

In professional or technical settings, you might encounter 'شارژ مجدد' (recharge). This is common in manuals or formal announcements. In the context of banking, 'شارژ کیف پول' (charging the wallet) refers to transferring funds from a bank account to a digital wallet within an app. The flexibility of 'شارژ' allows it to function in various grammatical slots, from a direct object to part of a complex verbal construction. Mastery of this word requires recognizing whether the speaker is discussing energy, finance, or maintenance fees based on the surrounding nouns and verbs.

برای استفاده از اینترنت، باید حساب خود را شارژ کنید.

— To use the internet, you must charge (top up) your account.
Common Verb: تمام کردن
Used when credit or battery runs out: 'شارژ تمام کردم'.
Common Verb: نگه داشتن
Used for battery health: 'شارژ خوب نگه می‌دارد' (It holds charge well).

You will hear the word شارژ in almost every corner of modern Iranian life. In a bustling cafe, it is common to hear customers asking the waiter, 'کجا می‌توانم گوشی‌ام را بزنم به شارژ؟' (Where can I plug my phone in for a charge?). In mobile phone shops (موبایل‌فروشی), the word is everywhere—on posters advertising 'شارژ مستقیم' (direct top-up) and on boxes of 'شارژر سریع' (fast chargers). If you are traveling by taxi or Snapp (the Iranian version of Uber), the driver might mention their phone's 'شارژ' is low, explaining why they need to use a car charger.

ببخشید، پریز برق برای شارژ گوشی کجاست؟

— Excuse me, where is the power outlet to charge the phone?

At the bank or while using a mobile payment app like 'آپ' (Asan Pardakht) or 'تاپ', 'شارژ' is a primary menu item. You will see buttons for 'خرید شارژ ایرانسل' (Buy Irancell charge) or 'شارژ همراه اول' (Charge Hamrah-e Aval). In residential buildings, the 'مدیر ساختمان' (building manager) will frequently use the word in notices posted in the elevator: 'لطفاً شارژ ساختمان را تا دهم هر ماه پرداخت کنید' (Please pay the building maintenance fee by the 10th of every month). Here, the context shifts entirely from electricity to communal finances.

پیامک آمد که شارژ اینترنتم رو به اتمام است.

— I got a text saying my internet credit is running out.

In the workplace, colleagues might talk about 'شارژ روحی' (mental recharge) after a vacation or a team-building event. You might hear a manager say, 'این موفقیت کل تیم را شارژ کرد' (This success recharged the whole team). In the automotive world, with the rise of hybrid and electric cars in major cities, 'ایستگاه شارژ' (charging station) is becoming a more common sight and topic of conversation. Whether at home, in the office, or on the street, 'شارژ' is a linguistic bridge between technology, finance, and human energy.

At the Metro
Self-service machines for 'شارژ کارت' (charging the card).
In the Gym
People talking about 'شارژ' in terms of pre-workout energy or supplements.

One of the most frequent mistakes learners make is confusing شارژ with 'قیمت' (price) or 'هزینه' (cost). While 'شارژ' can refer to a building fee, it is not a general word for the price of an item. You cannot ask 'شارژ این سیب چقدر است؟' to mean 'What is the price of this apple?'. Another common error is using the wrong auxiliary verb. While 'شارژ کردن' is standard, some learners mistakenly use 'پر کردن' (to fill) for batteries. While 'پر کردن' is used for tanks or glasses, for batteries and credit, 'شارژ کردن' is the only natural choice.

Incorrect: باطری را پر کردم.
Correct: باطری را شارژ کردم.

— I charged the battery.

Learners also sometimes struggle with the possessive 'ezafe' construction. They might say 'شارژِ گوشی' (phone's charge) when they actually mean 'شارژرِ گوشی' (phone's charger). Remember that 'شارژ' is the energy/credit itself, while 'شارژر' is the physical object you plug into the wall. Confusing these two can lead to funny situations where you ask to borrow someone's 'electricity' instead of their 'charger'. Additionally, in the context of building fees, don't confuse 'شارژ' with 'اجاره' (rent). Rent is paid to the landlord, while 'شارژ' is paid for communal services like cleaning and electricity in the hallway.

Incorrect: شارژر موبایلم تمام شد.
Correct: شارژ موبایلم تمام شد.

— My phone's charge (battery) ran out.

Finally, be careful with the word 'اعتبار' (credit). While 'شارژ' and 'اعتبار' are often interchangeable for mobile phones, 'اعتبار' is more formal and is also used for 'credit' in a banking/loan sense or 'credibility'. You 'charge' your SIM card to get 'credit'. If you say 'من شارژ ندارم', it's clear you mean your phone is dead or out of money. If you say 'من اعتبار ندارم', it could mean you have no social standing or no bank credit limit. Stick to 'شارژ' for daily tech and building fee contexts.

To truly understand شارژ, it helps to look at its synonyms and related terms. The most direct synonym in the context of mobile phones is اعتبار (e'tebār), which means 'credit'. While 'شارژ' is the act of adding value or the value itself, 'اعتبار' specifically refers to the balance. Another related word is نیرو (niru), meaning 'force' or 'power'. However, 'نیرو' is more abstract and used in physics or military contexts, whereas 'شارژ' is specific to stored electrical energy.

اعتبار (E'tebār)
Credit or balance, used formally for SIM cards and bank accounts.
باطری (Bātri)
The battery itself. 'شارژ' is what goes inside the 'باطری'.
انرژی (Enerzhi)
General energy, often used interchangeably with 'شارژ' in metaphorical human contexts.

باید اعتبار حسابم را افزایش دهم.

— I must increase my account credit (charge it).

In the context of building fees, a synonym for 'شارژ' could be هزینه نگهداری (hazine-ye negahdāri), which means 'maintenance cost'. However, this is very formal and rarely used in daily conversation. When talking about 'recharging' oneself, words like استراحت (esterāhat - rest) or تجدید قوا (tajdid-e qovā - renewing forces) are used. 'تجدید قوا' is the sophisticated, literary version of 'شارژ شدن'. Understanding these synonyms allows you to adjust your register from casual street talk to formal writing.

سفر به شمال باعث تجدید قوای من شد.

— The trip to the north resulted in my renewal of strength (recharged me).

Astuces

Compound Verb Usage

Always pair 'شارژ' with 'کردن' for active charging. For example, 'من گوشی را شارژ می‌کنم'. Use 'شدن' for the passive state, like 'گوشی شارژ شد'. This is the most natural way to use the word.

Borrowing a Charger

When asking for a charger, specify your phone type. You can say 'شارژر تایپ سی' (Type-C) or 'شارژر آیفون'. This helps the other person know if they can help you. Iranians are generally very happy to lend a charger.

Buying Credit

When buying mobile charge, you can choose 'شارژ مستقیم'. This goes directly to your number without needing a code. It is much easier than entering a 16-digit pin. Most banking apps offer this 'direct charge' service.

Building Fees

Remember that 'شارژ' in an apartment context is mandatory. It is not a tip or an optional gift. It is a calculated fee for the building's upkeep. Always ask about the 'شارژ' amount before renting a flat.

The 'Zh' Sound

The 'zh' sound in 'شارژ' is like the 's' in 'measure'. Make sure not to pronounce it as a 'j' or 'sh'. Correct pronunciation makes you sound much more like a native speaker. Practice by saying 'shā-rzh'.

Battery Health

To talk about battery health, use the phrase 'سلامت باطری'. You might say 'شارژ گوشی زود خالی می‌شود' if the health is bad. This means 'The phone charge empties quickly'. This is a common complaint with old phones.

Metro Cards

In Tehran, you must 'charge' your card before entering the metro. Look for the machines that say 'شارژ کارت'. You can use a bank card to add money to it. Without a 'charged' card, the gates will not open.

Human Energy

Use 'شارژ شدم' after a good meal or a nap. It's a fun, colloquial way to say you feel better. Your Persian friends will appreciate this natural use of the word. It shows you understand the informal side of the language.

Power Banks

A power bank is often called a 'پاوربانک' in Persian. You might ask 'این پاوربانک چند بار گوشی را شارژ می‌کند?'. This means 'How many times does this power bank charge the phone?'. This is a key question when buying one.

Electrical Safety

Be careful with 'شارژرهای تقلبی' (fake chargers). They can damage your phone's battery. Iranians often look for 'شارژر اصلی' (original charger). It is worth paying more for a real one to protect your device.

No, it also means mobile credit and building fees. In Iran, it is very common to use it for prepaid SIM cards. It is also the standard word for apartment maintenance costs. You must look at the context to know the meaning. For example, 'شارژ گوشی' is electricity, but 'شارژ ساختمان' is money.

You can say 'گوشیم شارژ ندارد' (My phone has no charge). Another common way is 'گوشیم خاموش شد' (My phone turned off). If the battery ran out, you say 'شارژم تمام شد'. Native speakers often just say 'شارژ ندارم'. This is understood as the battery being empty.

Yes, 'شارژر' is the general word for any charging device. This includes wall chargers, car chargers, and wireless pads. You can specify by saying 'شارژر دیواری' or 'شارژر فندکی'. It is a very useful word to know for travel. Most people will understand you if you just say 'شارژر'.

It is the monthly fee paid by apartment residents. This money covers cleaning, elevator maintenance, and communal bills. Every building has a different amount for 'شارژ'. It is usually paid to the building manager. Failure to pay can lead to services being cut off.

Yes, but it is informal and metaphorical. It means the person is energetic or motivated. You can say 'او امروز خیلی شارژ است'. It's like saying 'He is pumped up'. It's a positive way to describe someone's mood.

'شارژ' is more colloquial and refers to the act of topping up. 'اعتبار' is more formal and refers to the balance itself. For a SIM card, you buy 'شارژ' to increase your 'اعتبار'. In banking, you almost always use 'اعتبار'. For a phone, both are acceptable.

You can ask 'ببخشید، می‌توانم گوشیم را اینجا شارژ کنم؟'. Or more simply, 'پریز برق کجاست؟' (Where is the outlet?). Most cafes in Iran are helpful with this. Some even provide chargers if you ask 'شارژر دارید؟'. It is a very common request.

Yes, it comes from the French word 'charge'. Persian has many loanwords from French, especially in technology and law. It has been adapted to Persian phonology. The 'zh' sound at the end is typical of French loanwords. It is now considered a fully Persian word.

It means 'Fast Charger'. Iranians often use the English word 'fast' or the Persian 'sari' (سریع). High-speed charging is a popular feature in Iranian tech markets. You will see 'شارژر فست' written on many product boxes. It is a very common tech term.

The most common way is 'شارژم تمام شد'. If you want to be specific about money, say 'اعتبارم تمام شد'. If you are in the middle of a call and it cuts off, this is usually the reason. You will then need to 'buy charge' (شارژ بخرید).
