뜻
To become resentful or hold a grudge.
문화적 배경
Because Iranians value 'keeping face,' a person might act friendly while being 'del-cherkin' inside. This is why 'del-juyi' (clearing the heart) is a vital social ritual. Classical poets like Hafez often speak of 'shostan-e del' (washing the heart) to remove the 'cherk' (dirt/resentment) of worldly attachments or grudges. In movies by Asghar Farhadi, characters often suffer from being 'del-cherkin' due to small lies, which eventually leads to the collapse of their families. In large Iranian families, being 'del-cherkin' can last for years, leading to 'ghahr' (not speaking to someone). Elders often step in to 'clear the hearts' of the two parties.
Use it for 'Vibe' shifts
If you liked a restaurant but then saw a cockroach, you are now 'del-cherkin' about that place. It's perfect for describing a total change in opinion.
Don't over-use
It's a heavy phrase. If you use it for everything, you'll sound like a very resentful person!

Only if the movie offended your values or felt like a betrayal of the director's talent. Otherwise, just say 'I didn't like it.'
The opposite is 'del-pak' (pure-hearted) or 'del-saf' (clear-hearted).
