뜻
Used to express a dislike or lack of enjoyment for something.
문화적 배경
Iranians often use 'softeners' like 'ziyad' (much) to avoid sounding too harsh. Saying 'I don't like it very much' is often a polite way of saying 'I don't like it at all.' In Tehran, the spoken 'ro' or 'o' is almost universal. Using 'ra' in a casual conversation can make you sound like a textbook or a news anchor. When you are a guest, avoid this phrase for anything the host has prepared. It is better to blame your lack of appetite than your lack of liking. In poetry, 'dust' is a heavy word. Using 'dust nadaram' for a person is a very strong statement of rejection, much stronger than for an object.
The 'Ro' Rule
If you want to sound like a local, always use 'o' or 'ro' instead of 'ra' in conversation.
Don't be too blunt
In someone's home, use 'Meyl nadaram' (I don't have an appetite) instead of 'Dust nadaram' to be polite.

Softening with 'Ziyad'

Ta'arof and Dislike
Sometimes Iranians say they like something just to be polite. Look for hesitation or a lack of enthusiasm!

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, but it's very strong. 'U ra dust nadaram' means 'I don't like/love him/her.'
Yes, if the object is definite (like 'this' or a specific book).
'Dust nadaram' is more about a stable preference, while 'khosham nemiyad' is more about an immediate feeling or vibe.
Use 'Az in متنفرم' (Az in motenaferam).
No, you must include 'ra' or 'o'.
Use the infinitive: 'Dorough goftan ra dust nadaram' (I don't like telling lies).
Yes, it's perfectly fine and helpful when choosing a dish.
The opposite is 'این را دوست دارم' (In ra dust daram).
