뜻
Referring to a precise detail or a particular aspect of a subject.
문화적 배경
In Iranian universities, using 'be tour-e khās' in a seminar is a sign of intellectual maturity. It shows the student can move beyond generalities. During negotiations, Iranians may use this phrase to politely pivot from a difficult general topic to a specific detail they want to change. On Instagram, young Iranians use this phrase to highlight a 'mood' or a specific part of their day, often followed by English loanwords. News anchors on IRIB or BBC Persian use this phrase constantly to introduce specific reports after a general news summary.
The 'Zoom' Trick
Use this phrase as a mental 'zoom' button. Whenever you say a general noun (like 'food' or 'problems'), immediately follow it with 'be tour-e khās' to sound more fluent.
Don't Overuse
If you use it in every sentence, you will sound like a robot or a very boring textbook. Mix it up with 'makhsusan'.

자주 묻는 질문
12 질문Yes, they mean the same thing, but 'be tour-e khās' is more formal and common in writing, while 'makhsusan' is more common in speech.
Absolutely! It's a great way to set the topic. For example: 'Be tour-e khās, emruz mikham darbareye...' (Specifically, today I want to...)
No, it is an adverbial phrase and never changes its form.
It's like the 'ch' in the Scottish word 'loch'. It's a sound made in the back of the throat.
It's a bit long for texting. Most people would just type 'makhsusan' or even use an emoji.
You might hear it, but it's usually grammatically incorrect in this context. Stick to 'be tour-e khās'.
The opposite is 'be tour-e ām' (به طور عام) which means 'generally'.
Rarely. Classical poetry uses more metaphorical language. This is a modern, logical phrase.
The words are Arabic, but the way they are put together is very Persian.
Yes, it works perfectly for 'especially' when you are highlighting one thing among others.
