뜻
To clean garments using water and detergent.
문화적 배경
Laundry is a huge part of 'Khaneh-tekani' before the Persian New Year. It symbolizes washing away the bad luck of the previous year. The concept of 'Taharat' (purity) means clothes must be washed in a specific way to be suitable for prayer. In some villages, washing clothes at the local spring is still a social gathering spot for women. Most apartments are small, so 'lebas pahn kardan' (hanging clothes) often happens on small balconies or indoor racks.
Spoken Shortcut
In Tehran, people say 'mishuram' instead of 'mishuyam'. It's much more common in conversation.
Don't forget the 'mi-'
Without the 'mi-' prefix, the verb sounds like a command or a mistake. Always use 'mishuyam' for 'I wash'.

The 'Najes' factor
If you are living with a religious family, ask if they have a specific way of washing 'najes' (impure) items.
Compound Verb Logic
Once you master 'lebas shostan', you can easily learn 'zarf shostan' (dishes), 'dast shostan' (hands), and 'mashin shostan' (car).

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문No, dry cleaning is 'khoshkshouyi'. 'Shostan' implies the use of water.
It is singular in form but plural in meaning (like 'doing laundry'). You don't need to say 'lebas-ha shostan'.
The present stem is 'shuy-'. So 'I wash' is 'mishuyam'.
You say 'Man bayad lebas beshuyam'.
Not at all! It's a very common topic for daily planning and small talk in Iran.
They are usually called 'Lebasshouyi' or 'Khoshkshouyi' (if they offer both).
Yes, that is the noun form (the washing of clothes), but 'lebas shostan' is the verb form.
'Lebas' is the modern word for clothes. 'Rakht' is older and often refers to bedding or a larger pile of laundry.
It is 'mashin-e lebasshouyi'.
Friday (the weekend) is the most common day for big household chores like laundry.
