뜻
To rely or depend on someone for help or support.
문화적 배경
The phrase is often used to bypass 'Ta'arof'. If someone says 'Seriously, count on me' (Vaghe'an ruy-e man hesab kon), they are signaling that this is not just a polite gesture. In Iranian business, 'counting on someone' is often more important than a written contract. Verbal agreements backed by this phrase carry immense weight. Children are often told they can 'count on' their parents for anything, reinforcing the strong family safety net in Persian society. On Iranian Instagram or Twitter, you'll see 'Ruy-e man hesab kon' used in captions to show solidarity during social movements or crises.
Use the Short Forms
To sound like a native, use 'roum', 'rout', and 'roush' instead of the full 'ruy-e man/to/u'.
The 'Ruy-e' is Mandatory
If you forget 'ruy-e', you are telling the person you are calculating their value or counting them like an object.

Watch for Ta'arof
If someone says 'Count on me' for something huge (like giving you a car), they might be Ta'arof-ing. If they say it for a coffee, they mean it!
Negative Usage
