뜻
Indicates going straight ahead.
문화적 배경
In shared taxis, 'Mostaghim' is a destination in itself. It means you are staying on the main artery of the city. The phrase 'Sirat al-Mustaqim' is recited daily in prayers, meaning the path of those whom God has blessed. While 'Taarof' (polite ritual) is common, being 'Mostaghim' in speech can sometimes be seen as rude or refreshingly honest depending on the city (e.g., people from Isfahan vs. Tehran).
Taxi Command
When in a taxi, say 'Mostaghim' with a rising intonation to ask if they are going that way, and a falling intonation to tell them to keep going.
Don't say 'Rast'
If you say 'Rast', the driver will turn right at the next junction!
