A statement that is factual and sincere.
문화적 배경
The proverb 'Harf-e rast ra bayad az bache shenid' implies that adults are often too polite to be honest. The 'straightness' of the cypress tree is a recurring metaphor for the 'straightness' of a truthful person. Starting a sentence with 'Rastash...' is a polite way to bypass Ta'arof without being offensive. Telling the truth was one of the three pillars of education for Persian youth in antiquity.
