To console someone, telling them not to worry or grieve.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Iranians often use 'ghosse nakhorid' as a form of Ta'arof to show they are deeply invested in your problems, even if they can't help. In Dari, the sentiment is the same, but you might hear 'gham nakhur' more frequently in poetic or formal speech. Tajik Persian uses 'gham nakhur' as well, often influenced by Russian structures of empathy. Second-generation Iranians often mix this with English: 'Don't ghosse khordan, it's okay!'
The 'Khordan' Rule
Remember that in Persian, you 'eat' emotions. This will help you remember the verb for ghosse, fesk, and even saram (cold).
Don't be dismissive
If someone is crying hard, sometimes just saying 'ghosse nakhor' isn't enough. Pair it with 'man pish-et hastam' (I am here with you).
