व्याख्या قاشق in your Level:

At the A1 level, 'قاشق' (qâšoq) is simply the word for 'spoon'. You need to know it to identify basic kitchen items and to ask for one at a dining table. It is usually paired with the verb 'dâštan' (to have) or 'be dehid' (give). Example: 'Man ye qâšoq mikham' (I want a spoon). Focus on the pronunciation: the 'q' is a deep sound in the throat, and the 'sh' is like 'shoe'. It is a basic building block for surviving a meal in a Persian-speaking environment.

At A2, you start distinguishing between different types of spoons. You should learn 'qâšoq-e chây-khory' (teaspoon) and 'qâšoq-e ghazâ-khory' (tablespoon). You also learn to use it with the preposition 'bâ' (with) to describe actions: 'Bâ qâšoq mâst mikhoram' (I eat yogurt with a spoon). You should be able to pluralize it correctly as 'qâšoq-hâ' or colloquially as 'qâšoq-â'.

By B1, you use 'قاشق' in more complex instructions and recipes. You understand it as a unit of measurement in cooking. You also encounter it in domestic chores, such as 'qâšoq-hâ ro bechin' (arrange the spoons). You begin to notice the word in compound nouns and more varied materials like 'qâšoq-e chubi' (wooden spoon) or 'qâšoq-e yekbârmasraf' (disposable spoon).

At the B2 level, you move into idiomatic and metaphorical territory. While 'قاشق' is literal, you might hear it in expressions about being 'spoon-fed' information or in cultural stories. You also understand the nuances of table etiquette—where the spoon sits in a formal 'Sorf-e Shâm' (dinner setting) and how it differentiates from a 'kafgir' (skimmer). You can describe the material properties, such as 'qâšoq-e zang-nazan' (stainless spoon).

قاشق 30 सेकंड में

قاشق (qâšoq) means 'spoon' in Persian. It is a basic noun used for eating and cooking.
It is a Turkic loanword that is now a core part of the Persian language and kitchen vocabulary.
In Iran, people usually eat rice with a spoon and a fork, making the spoon a primary utensil.
Common types include the tablespoon (ghazâ-khory) and the teaspoon (chây-khory).

The word قاشق (qâšoq) is the fundamental Persian term for a spoon. While it might seem like a simple utilitarian object, the spoon holds a significant place in the Iranian culinary landscape. Unlike many Western cultures where the knife and fork are the primary protagonists of the dinner table, in Iran, the قاشق and چنگال (fork) are the inseparable duo used for consuming the national staple: rice. Understanding this word is one of the first steps for any learner, as it appears in every meal from breakfast to late-night tea.

Culinary Context: In a typical Persian household, the قاشق is held in the right hand. It is used not just for liquids like soup (سوپ) or ash (آش), but as the primary tool to scoop up fluffy grains of saffron-infused basmati rice. The fork in the left hand acts as a stabilizer or a pusher. This cultural nuance means you will hear the word 'spoon' far more often in an Iranian dining room than you might in a French or American one.
Material and Variety: Spoons come in various materials in Iran. You have the قاشق استیل (stainless steel spoon) for daily use, قاشق چوبی (wooden spoon) for stirring heavy pots of stew (خورشت), and even قاشق‌های مسی (copper spoons) which are prized for their traditional aesthetic and perceived health benefits in folk medicine.

"لطفاً یک قاشق تمیز به من بدهید."
— Translation: Please give me a clean spoon.

Beyond the physical object, the word carries weight in specific social rituals. For instance, the size of the spoon dictates its name: the قاشق غذاخوری is the large tablespoon used for the main course, while the قاشق چای‌خوری is the tiny teaspoon essential for the ubiquitous Iranian tea culture. Even the act of medicine intake is measured in 'spoons', making it a vital word for health and pharmacy contexts.

"آیا برای خوردن این دسر به قاشق نیاز دارید؟"

Do you need a spoon to eat this dessert?

Social Etiquette: In high-end Persian dining, the placement of the قاشق is precise. It is usually placed to the right of the plate. If you are a guest in an Iranian home, you might notice that the host provides an extra-large spoon for serving dishes like Tahchin or Ghormeh Sabzi. This serving spoon is often referred to as قاشق بزرگ or کفگیر depending on its shape.

Mastering the word قاشق involves understanding its role as a countable noun and how it interacts with verbs of action like 'taking,' 'using,' and 'washing.' In Persian grammar, the spoon is an inanimate object, so it follows standard pluralization and object marking rules.

As a Direct Object: When you are doing something to the spoon, you use the object marker را (râ) in formal Persian, or the suffix -o/-ro in colloquial speech. For example: قاشق را بردار (Pick up the spoon).

"او با قاشق نقره‌ای غذا می‌خورد."

He eats with a silver spoon. (Note the use of 'with' - با).

In compound sentences, قاشق often appears with adjectives describing its size or purpose. This is where the Persian Ezafe construction (the short 'e' sound linking words) becomes crucial. You don't just say 'spoon tea,' you say قاشقِ چای (qâšoq-e chây).

Common Verb Pairings

شستن (Shostan): To wash the spoon.
گذاشتن (Gozâštan): To put/place the spoon.
گم کردن (Gom kardan): To lose the spoon.
هم زدن (Ham zadan): To stir (with) the spoon.

"مادر با قاشق چوبی غذا را هم می‌زند."

Mother is stirring the food with a wooden spoon.

Whether you are describing a kitchen inventory or asking for a tool to eat your soup, these patterns remain consistent. The spoon is always the instrument of the action, usually preceded by the preposition با (with).

The word قاشق is ubiquitous. You will encounter it in diverse environments, from high-pressure restaurant kitchens to the quiet domesticity of a morning breakfast table. Its frequency in daily life makes it a high-yield vocabulary word.

At the Restaurant (رستوران): When a waiter sets the table, they might ask, "چند تا قاشق نیاز دارید؟" (How many spoons do you need?). If your table is missing one, you would signal the staff and say, "ببخشید، ما یک قاشق کم داریم" (Excuse me, we are short one spoon).
In the Kitchen (آشپزخانه): Recipes are the most common place to see the word in writing. Iranian cookbooks frequently use قاشق غذاخوری (tablespoon) and قاشق مرباخوری (dessert spoon/jam spoon) as units of measurement. You'll hear a chef say, "دو قاشق نمک اضافه کنید" (Add two spoons of salt).

"توی کشوی اول، فقط قاشق و چنگال است."

In the first drawer, there are only spoons and forks.

You will also hear it in medical settings. Pediatricians often prescribe liquid medicine by the 'spoonful'. A mother might say, "باید یک قاشق از این شربت را بخوری" (You must drink one spoon of this syrup).

Finally, in traditional marketplaces (Bazaars), you'll hear vendors shouting about سرویس قاشق و چنگال (spoon and fork sets), which are a major part of a bride's dowry (Jahiziye) in Iranian culture.

While قاشق is a straightforward noun, learners often stumble on its pronunciation, its compound forms, and its cultural usage. Here are the most frequent pitfalls to avoid.

Pronunciation of 'Q' and 'Gh'

The letter ق (Ghaf) and ش (Shin) followed by ق again can be tricky. Many English speakers pronounce the 'Q' as a 'K' (kâšok). In Persian, it is a voiced uvular stop/fricative, similar to the French 'r' but further back. Ensure you don't say 'Kashok'; it's Ghashogh.

Confusing the Sizes

Learners often use قاشق کوچک (small spoon) for everything. However, Persian has specific names:

قاشق چای‌خوری: Teaspoon (for tea/stirring).
قاشق مرباخوری: Dessert/Jam spoon (slightly larger).
قاشق غذاخوری: Tablespoon (for eating main meals).

Using the wrong one in a recipe can ruin the dish!

"اشتباه: من با کفگیر سوپ می‌خورم."

Mistake: I eat soup with a spatula. (Confusion between 'spoon' and 'skimmer/spatula').

Another mistake is the word order in compound nouns. Remember the Ezafe. It's not 'Chay Ghashogh', it's Ghashogh-e Chay. The object comes first, then the purpose.

While قاشق is the general term, Persian has a rich vocabulary for various types of scoops and utensils. Knowing these will make you sound more like a native speaker.

ملاقه (Malâghe): Ladle. Used for serving soup or stew from a large pot. You wouldn't eat with a malâghe; you use it to fill your bowl so you can then use your qâšoq.
کفگیر (Kafgir): Skimmer / Large Serving Spoon. This is usually flat with holes or a very wide, shallow bowl. It is essential for serving Persian rice (Polow) to keep the grains intact and fluffy.
چمچه (Chamcheh): Small Ladle / Scoop. A more traditional or dialectal word often used in villages or for specific traditional cooking tools.

🥄قاشقGeneral Spoon

🥣ملاقهServing Ladle

In terms of verbs, instead of just 'eating' (خوردن), you might use کشیدن (Kashidan) when using a large spoon to serve food. For example: "با این قاشق بزرگ برنج بکش" (Serve the rice with this large spoon).

How Formal Is It?

रोचक तथ्य

Before 'قاشق' became the standard word, Iranians used various Middle Persian words for scoops, but the Turkic word became so dominant that the original Persian words are now mostly forgotten or relegated to obscure dialects.

सामान्य गलतियाँ

Using 'Kashok' → Qâšoq
The 'Q' sound is uvular, not a simple 'K'.
Eating soup with a 'Changâl' → Eating soup with a 'Qâšoq'
Logic error: you cannot eat liquid with a fork.
Saying 'Chay Qâšoq' → Qâšoq-e Chay
In Persian, the noun comes before the modifier (Ezafe).
Confusing 'Qâšoq' with 'Qâyeq' → Qâšoq
One is a spoon, the other is a boat. Check the middle letter.
Using a 'Qâšoq' to serve rice from a big pot → Use a 'Kafgir'
Culturally, a small spoon is for eating, a 'Kafgir' is for serving.

सुझाव

Master the 'Q'

The first and last letters are the same 'Q' (ق). Practice making a voiced sound at the back of your throat to sound more authentic.

Table Manners

In Iran, never use your spoon to serve yourself from a communal dish; always use the provided serving spoon (Kafgir or Malaghe).

Compound Names

Remember to use the Ezafe (-e) when specifying the type of spoon, like 'qâšoq-e chubi'.

Sizes Matter

Learn the three main sizes (tea, jam, and food) to follow Persian recipes accurately.

Asking Politely

Use 'lotfan' (please) when asking for a spoon to be polite in social settings.

Dot Placement

Be careful with the three dots on the 'Shin' (ش). Without them, the word becomes unrecognizable.

Clinking Sounds

In Persian movies, the sound of a spoon hitting a glass often signals tea time.

Don't be a Meddler

If someone calls you a 'qâšoq-e nashoste' (unwashed spoon), it means you are sticking your nose where it doesn't belong!

Buying Sets

When buying cutlery, ask for 'servis-e qâšoq changâl'.

Wooden is Better

Persian grandmothers always recommend a 'qâšoq-e chubi' for stirring stews to keep the flavor pure.

याद करें

स्मृति सहायक

Think of a 'Gosh' (ear) - you use a 'Qâšoq' to feed your mouth, which is near your 'Gosh'. Or, it sounds like 'Gosh-hawk'—a bird scooping up prey like a spoon scoops food.

दृश्य संबंध

Visualize the letter 'ق' (Ghaf) with its two dots looking like two small spoonfuls of food sitting on top of the spoon's bowl.

चैलेंज

Try to name three different sizes of spoons in Persian while you are setting your dinner table tonight.

शब्द की उत्पत्ति

Borrowed from Old Turkic 'kaşık'. It entered Persian during the period of Turkic migrations and dynasties (like the Seljuks or Ghaznavids).

मूल अर्थ: A tool for scooping or eating.

Turkic (loanword in Indo-European Persian).

सांस्कृतिक संदर्भ

No specific sensitivities; 'قاشق' is a neutral, everyday object.

In English-speaking cultures, the spoon is for soup or dessert. In Iran, it is for the main course (rice).

The ritual of Qashoq-zani in Persian folklore. Sadegh Hedayat's stories often mention mundane kitchen objects like spoons to ground the narrative. Traditional Persian 'Ash' (thick soup) is always served with a large 'Malaghe' (ladle) but eaten with a 'Qashoq'.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल

10 सवाल

You can say 'Bebakhshid, ye qâšoq lotfan' (Excuse me, one spoon please). If you need more than one, say 'Bebakhshid, do tâ qâšoq lotfan'.

It is originally a Turkic loanword that has been used in Persian for centuries and is now considered a standard part of the language.
