Gushi-ye hamrah

Mobile phone

A portable electronic device used for communication and various other functions.

🌍

문화적 배경

In cities like Tehran, the 'گوشی همراه' is a vital tool for bypassing internet censorship. Almost every phone has multiple 'Filter-shekans' (VPNs) installed. It is considered rude to look at your 'گوشی همراه' while someone is performing 'Taarof' or during a formal greeting. Many small businesses in Iran operate entirely through Instagram on their 'گوشی همراه', as it's easier than setting up a traditional website. In mosques and holy shrines, there are often signs asking visitors to turn off their 'گوشی همراه' or put them on silent.

🎯

Sound like a native

Use 'گوشی' (gooshi) in 90% of your conversations. Save 'گوشی همراه' for when you're filling out forms or talking to your boss.

⚠️

The Ezafe

Don't forget the 'ye' sound between the two words. Without it, it sounds like two separate, unrelated words.
