The act of coming into existence through birth.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
When a baby is born, it is customary to burn 'Esfand' (wild rue) to protect the child from the 'evil eye' (cheshm-zakhm). The first thing often whispered into a newborn's ear is the 'Azan' (call to prayer) by a grandfather or elder. Birthdays are celebrated with the song 'Tavalodat Mobarak,' which is the Persian equivalent of 'Happy Birthday to You.' The concept of 'Ghadam' (footstep) is vital; people believe some babies are 'khosh-ghadam' (bringing good luck to the family).

Active vs Passive
Never say 'I was borned' (shodam). Always use 'I came' (amadam).
