意味
The amount of money needed to sustain a certain standard of living.
文化的背景
Iranians often use 'Toman' instead of 'Rial' when discussing living costs. If someone says their rent is '5 million', they mean 5 million Tomans, not Rials. There is a massive disparity in the cost of living between Tehran and other cities. Tehran is often 2-3 times more expensive, especially regarding housing. It is socially acceptable, and even expected, to complain about the cost of living. It's a way to show you are 'one of the people' and understand the common struggle. For Iranians living abroad, they often compare the 'hazine-ye zendegi' of their new country with Iran, usually focusing on the stability of prices.
Use 'Kharj' for friends
If you want to sound like a local, use 'خرج زندگی' (kharj-e zendegi) when chatting with friends.
Don't forget the Ezafe
Without the 'ye' sound between the words, it sounds like two random words rather than a phrase.
