解説 مایوس in your Level:

At the A1 level, you don't need to use the word 'māyūs' yet, as it is quite formal. Instead, you should focus on simpler words like 'nārāhat' (sad) or 'bad' (bad). However, it is good to recognize that 'māyūs' is a way people say they are very sad because something they wanted didn't happen. Think of it like a very strong version of 'not happy'. If you see this word in a book, just know it means someone is feeling down because a plan failed.

For A2 learners, 'māyūs' is a word you might start to hear in news clips or see in simple stories. You should know that it often goes with the word 'shodan' (to become). A common sentence might be 'Man māyūs shodam' (I became disappointed). At this stage, you should try to distinguish it from 'nārāhat'. While 'nārāhat' can mean you are just upset, 'māyūs' means you have lost hope. It's a useful word to add to your list of 'feelings' adjectives to sound more advanced.

This is the level where you start to use this word in writing assignments or when discussing serious topics like your career or studies. You understand that this word carries a sense of 'despair' or 'loss of hope'.

B2 learners should use 'māyūs' with ease and understand its nuances compared to synonyms like 'del-sard' (discouraged) or 'sarkhordeh' (frustrated). You should be able to use it in complex sentences and understand its role in literature and media. You are aware of the word's Arabic roots and how that contributes to its formal tone. You can use it to describe not just people, but also the 'atmosphere' of a situation (e.g., a disappointed silence). You also know common collocations like 'māyūs az rahmat-e khodā' (despairing of God's mercy).

مایوس 30秒で

Māyūs is a formal Persian adjective meaning 'disappointed' or 'hopeless'.
It is usually used with light verbs like 'shodan' (to become) or 'kardan' (to make).
The word carries a heavier emotional weight than the common 'nā-omid'.
Correct usage requires the preposition 'az' (from/by) when indicating the cause.

The Persian word مایوس (māyūs) is a sophisticated adjective used to describe a profound state of disappointment, hopelessness, or despondency. While English often uses 'disappointed' for minor inconveniences, māyūs carries a heavier emotional weight, often suggesting that a hope or expectation has been completely extinguished. It is derived from the Arabic root (Y-'-S), which relates to despair. When you use this word, you are communicating that the lack of success or the failure of an event has left a lasting impact on your emotional state. It is not just about being 'upset'; it is about feeling that a door has closed. In modern Persian, it is frequently paired with light verbs like شدن (to become) and کردن (to make/render).

Emotional Depth: This word implies a transition from a state of hope to a state of void. It is used in literature to describe tragic figures and in daily life to describe serious setbacks in career or relationships.

او از پیدا کردن شغل مناسب کاملاً مایوس شده است.

Translation: He has become completely disappointed/hopeless about finding a suitable job.

In a professional context, if a project fails after months of hard work, a manager might say the team is māyūs. It reflects a loss of morale. Unlike the more common word ناامید (nā-omid), which is a direct Persian equivalent for 'hopeless', māyūs feels more formal and literary. It is the kind of word you would find in a serious newspaper editorial or a classic novel. Using it correctly demonstrates a B1/B2 level of proficiency because it shows an understanding of register and nuance. It suggests that the speaker is articulate and capable of expressing complex internal states.

Syntactic Function: It acts as a predicative adjective. You will almost always see it as 'māyūs shodan' (to be disappointed) or 'māyūs kardan' (to disappoint someone).

رفتار سرد تو مرا مایوس کرد.

Translation: Your cold behavior disappointed me.

Culturally, Iranians value emotional expression in poetry and prose. The concept of ya's (the root noun) is a recurring theme in Sufi literature and modern existentialist Persian writing. To be māyūs is to be in a state where the light of expectation has dimmed. It is often contrasted with entezār (expectation/waiting). If you wait for something and it never comes, the end result is often becoming māyūs. Understanding this word helps you navigate the landscape of Persian sentiment, where the transition from 'hope' to 'despair' is a common narrative arc.

Using مایوس correctly involves understanding its relationship with the prepositions از (az - from/of) and در (dar - in). Most commonly, you are disappointed *from* or *by* something. For example, 'I am disappointed in/by you' becomes man az to māyūs shodam. This structure is vital for B1 learners to master. The word is versatile enough to describe people, outcomes, and even abstract concepts like 'the future' or 'humanity'.

Common Pattern: [Subject] + از + [Object] + مایوس + [Light Verb]. This is the standard way to express who or what caused the disappointment.

او هیچ‌وقت از رحمت خدا مایوس نمی‌شود.

Translation: He never despairs of God's mercy. (A very common religious/cultural phrase).

When you want to describe a person as being 'disappointing' (the cause), you use māyūs-konandeh (مایوس‌کننده). For instance, 'The movie was disappointing' is film māyūs-konandeh bud. This distinction between the feeling (māyūs) and the cause (māyūs-konandeh) is a key grammatical milestone. In academic writing, you might see it as part of a noun phrase: chehreh-ye māyūs (a disappointed face). This shows the word acting as an attributive adjective.

نتیجه‌ی امتحان برای همه مایوس‌کننده بود.

Translation: The exam result was disappointing for everyone.

In complex sentences, māyūs can be followed by a clause explaining the reason. 'I was disappointed that you didn't come' would be māyūs shodam ke nayāmadi. This usage is common in letters and formal emails where you need to express regret. It is also important to note that in Persian, the passive voice for 'to be disappointed' is simply the 'shodan' construction. There isn't a separate passive form as in English. Mastery of this word allows for more nuanced emotional storytelling in your writing.

You will encounter مایوس in several specific domains of Iranian life. First and foremost is the world of **media and news**. If a peace talk fails or an economic policy doesn't yield results, the headlines will often use māyūs to describe the public sentiment. It provides a level of gravitas that the news requires. Secondly, you will hear it in **formal education and workplace feedback**. A teacher might tell a student that their performance was māyūs-konandeh, which is a serious critique.

Context: Literature: In Persian poetry, from Rumi to modern poets like Ahmad Shamlou, 'ya's' (despair) is a major theme. 'Māyūs' is the state of the lover who has lost hope of reaching the beloved.

او با صدایی مایوس سخن می‌گفت.

Translation: He was speaking with a disappointed/despondent voice.

In **legal and political discourse**, the word is used to describe the failure of petitions or the rejection of appeals. For example, 'The lawyers became disappointed with the verdict.' This word is also prevalent in **religious sermons**. A common theme in Islamic teachings in Iran is 'not being disappointed in the mercy of God' (lā taqnatu min rahmatillāh), where the Persian translation consistently uses māyūs. This gives the word a spiritual dimension that 'nā-omid' sometimes lacks.

اخبار امروز بسیار مایوس‌کننده بود.

Translation: Today's news was very disappointing.

Finally, in **cinema and TV dramas**, particularly in the popular 'social realism' genre of Iranian film, characters often reach a breaking point where they describe themselves as māyūs. It signifies a loss of agency or the feeling of being trapped by circumstances. Understanding this word is like unlocking a specific emotional frequency in Persian media—one that resonates with the struggles and resilience of the people.

One of the most frequent mistakes English speakers make is using مایوس for trivial things. In English, you might say 'I'm disappointed my favorite coffee shop is closed.' In Persian, using māyūs here would sound overly dramatic, like you've lost all hope in life because of a latte. For small things, use nārāhat (sad/upset) or pashimān (regretful) if it's about a choice. Save māyūs for significant life events.

Mistake: Confusion with 'Nā-omid': While they are synonyms, 'nā-omid' is the everyday word. 'Māyūs' is the 'literary' or 'heavy' word. Using 'māyūs' in a very casual slang sentence can sound mismatched.

❌ من از ناهار مایوس شدم.
✅ من از ناهار ناراحت شدم / ناهار خوب نبود.

Note: Don't use it for minor things like lunch; it sounds too intense.

Another common error is the spelling. Because it is an Arabic word, it contains the 'hamza' (وُ) which can be tricky for learners. Some might write it without the hamza or confuse the 's' sound (since Persian has three 's' sounds: س، ص، ث). It is spelled with 'sin' (س). Also, remember that māyūs is the state of the person, while māyūs-konandeh is the quality of the thing causing the feeling. Mixing these up is a classic B1-level error.

❌ او یک آدم مایوس است.
✅ او یک آدم ناامید/مایوس است (but usually implies 'depressed' here).

Note: Calling someone a 'māyūs person' often suggests they are chronically despondent.

Finally, watch out for the preposition. Learners often try to use 'dar' (in) because of English 'disappointed in'. In Persian, it is almost always 'az' (from/by). Saying 'man dar to māyūs shodam' is a literal translation from English and sounds unnatural to native ears. Stick to 'az' to sound like a native speaker. Mastery of these small details is what separates a B1 learner from a C1 speaker.

Persian is rich in emotional vocabulary. While مایوس is your go-to for deep disappointment, there are several alternatives depending on the context. The most direct synonym is ناامید (nā-omid), which literally means 'without hope'. It is used in about 80% of daily situations where an English speaker would say 'disappointed' or 'hopeless'.

Comparison: Māyūs vs. Nā-omid: 'Nā-omid' is pure Persian (Indo-European roots) and sounds more natural in speech. 'Māyūs' is Arabic-derived and sounds more formal or academic.

دل‌سرد (Del-sard)

Literally 'cold-hearted' (but meaning 'discouraged'). Use this when someone loses interest or enthusiasm for a task.

Another beautiful alternative is del-shekasteh (دل‌شکسته), which means 'heartbroken'. This is more emotional and personal than māyūs. If a friend lets you down, you might be del-shekasteh. If a business deal falls through, you are māyūs. For a sense of regret mixed with disappointment, use pashimān (پشیمان). If you are 'let down' by someone's lack of action, entezār dāshtan (to have expectations) is often used in the negative: 'I didn't expect this from you' (az to entezār nadāshtam).

سرخورده (Sarkhordeh)

Meaning 'frustrated' or 'hit a wall'. Use this for social or political disappointment where one feels their efforts were blocked.

In summary, choose māyūs when you want to sound serious, formal, or are describing a total loss of hope. Choose nā-omid for general use, del-sard for loss of enthusiasm, and sarkhordeh for social frustration. Knowing these distinctions will allow you to describe your feelings with the precision of a native speaker, which is the ultimate goal of the B1-B2 transition.

Borrowed from Arabic 'ma'yūs' (مأيوس), which is the passive participle of the verb 'ya'isa' (يَئِسَ), meaning 'to despair' or 'to lose hope'.

元の意味： The state of being despaired of or having lost hope.

Semitic (Arabic) into Indo-European (Persian).

文化的な背景

Be careful when telling someone they made you 'māyūs'; it is a very strong emotional statement and can be hurtful.

English speakers use 'disappointed' very casually. In Persian, 'māyūs' is much heavier. It's closer to 'despondent' or 'dejected'.

Modern poems by Sohrab Sepehri often contrast 'ya's' (despair) with nature. The phrase 'Lā taqnatu' (Don't despair) from the Quran is ubiquitous in Persian calligraphy as 'Māyūs nasho'. Social realism films like 'A Separation' often portray characters in a state of 'māyūs'.
