뜻
To make a phone call to a person.
문화적 배경
When calling someone, it is polite to ask 'Vaght dārid?' (Do you have time?) before starting the conversation. In Dari, 'telfon kardan' is often as common as 'telfon zadan'. Greetings are even more extensive and may include asking about the health of the entire family. In Tajik, you might hear 'zang zadan' frequently, and the influence of Russian phone etiquette (being very direct) can sometimes be seen in urban areas. In the diaspora (USA, Europe), many speakers mix English: 'Behet call mizanam' is a very common 'Pinglish' expression.
The 'Be' Rule
Always remember the person you call is the destination (be), not the object (rā).
Don't 'Hit' People
If you say 'Man to rā zadam', it means 'I hit you' (physically). Always include 'telfon'!
