뜻
To descend a flight of steps.
문화적 배경
In hilly cities like Amman, public staircases (Adraj) are landmarks. People often use them as meeting points or shortcuts between streets. The 'Sullam' (stairs) in Egyptian apartment buildings is a major social space. It's common to see neighbors chatting on the landing. In the Medinas, stairs are often narrow and made of beautiful tile (Zellij). Descending them carefully is a part of daily life. The 'Bawab' (doorman) often sits near the bottom of the stairs, making the act of descending a social interaction where you must give a greeting.
Sun Letter Alert
Remember that 'Dal' in 'Daraj' is a sun letter. Don't pronounce the 'L' in 'Al-Daraj'. Say 'Ad-daraj'.
Don't say 'Go Down'
In English we say 'Go down', but in Arabic, the verb 'Nuzul' already includes the 'down' part. Don't add 'ila asfal' unless you want to be redundant.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, but it's more specific to say 'yanzilu 'ala al-daraj al-kahraba'i' (descending the electric stairs).
It is a collective noun. A single step is a 'daraja'.
'Daraj' is usually built-in stairs. 'Sullam' can be stairs or a portable ladder.
You can say 'أنا نازل تحت' (Ana nazil taht) in dialect, or 'أنزل إلى الطابق السفلي' in MSA.
Yes, it is the standard verb in Modern Standard Arabic.
No, for a mountain you would say 'yanzilu min al-jabal' (descending from the mountain).
It is 'Nahnu nanzilu al-daraj'.
The opposite is 'su'ud' (صعود) or 'tulu'' (طلوع) in dialect.
Usually 'al-daraj' (the stairs) because you are referring to a specific staircase in a building.
Only if you are literally talking about the building's facilities! It's not a common business idiom.
