뜻
The part of the day between noon and evening.
문화적 배경
The 'Khab-e ba'd az zohr' (afternoon nap) is very common. Calling someone between 2 PM and 4:30 PM is often considered rude as it's private rest time. In Dari Persian, 'بعد از چاشت' (Ba'd az chasht) is often used instead of 'بعدازظهر'. 'Chasht' refers to the midday meal. Tajik Persian uses 'بعد از ظهر' but may also use 'پگاه' (pagoh) in different regional contexts, though 'Ba'd az zohr' remains standard. Many traditional bazaars and shops close for a few hours in the afternoon (1 PM - 4 PM) and stay open much later into the night to compensate.
Drop the 'Dar'
Don't say 'In the afternoon'. Just say 'Afternoon'. It sounds much more native.
The 2 PM Rule
Avoid calling Iranian friends at 2 PM unless it's an emergency; they are likely napping!

Friday Melancholy

자주 묻는 질문
7 질문In writing, it is usually three words (بعد از ظهر) or written with a half-space (بعدازظهر). Both are correct.
You can say 'بعدازظهر بخیر' (Ba'd az zohr be kheyr), but it's very formal. 'Salam' is better.
'Ba'd az zohr' is the whole time from 12-5 PM. 'Asr' is specifically the later part, around 4-6 PM.
No, 6 PM is usually 'Ghurub' (sunset) or 'Shab' (evening).
Use 'ب.ظ' which stands for 'بعدازظهر'.
Yes, but 'Ba'd az chasht' is more common in daily Dari speech.
Literally yes, as 'Zohr' is the midday prayer time.
