be dard nakhordan

To be useless

意味

To be of no value, benefit, or practical purpose.

🌍

文化的背景

In Iranian bazaars, if you call a product 'be-dard-nakhor', it's a strong negotiation tactic to lower the price. The phrase is also widely used in Dari (Afghan Persian) with the same meaning, though the accent differs. In Tajik Persian, 'ba dard nakhurdan' is understood but they might use 'ba kor nayomadan' more frequently in formal speech. Younger generations in the West often mix this with English: 'This app is totally be-dard-nakhor!'

🎯

The 'E' sound

In spoken Tehrani Persian, the ending '-ad' changes to '-e'. So 'nemikhorad' becomes 'nemikhore'.

⚠️

Careful with People

Calling a person 'be-dard-nakhor' is very offensive. Use 'monaseb nist' (not suitable) instead.

💬

Ta'arof and Utility

If someone offers you something you don't want, don't say 'be dardam nemikhore' (it's useless to me). Say 'kheyli mamnun, lazem nadaram' (thanks, I don't need it).
