뜻
To shed tears as an expression of emotion.
문화적 배경
In Iranian culture, crying during religious ceremonies (like Ashura) is considered a virtuous act of empathy with the suffering of holy figures. Iranian films are world-renowned for their emotional depth. Crying is often used by directors to show the inner struggle of characters against social injustice. Classical poets like Rumi and Hafez often speak of 'gerye' as a way to wash the soul and reach a higher spiritual state. Young Iranians use 'gerye kardan' or 'ashkam dar āmad' (my tears came out) to react to cute or touching videos, similar to 'I'm crying' in English web slang.
The 'Kardan' Rule
Mastering 'kardan' is the key to 50% of Persian verbs. Once you can conjugate 'gerye kardan,' you can also do 'kar kardan' (to work), 'sohbat kardan' (to talk), and many more.
Tears of Joy
Always specify 'gerye-ye shogh' (crying of joy) if you aren't sad, otherwise people will immediately try to comfort you!
