설명 برق in your Level:
At the A1 level, 'Bargh' is a vital survival word. You need it to understand why your phone isn't charging or why the lights are off. Focus on the simplest phrases: 'Bargh raft' (The power went out) and 'Bargh amad' (The power came back). You should also know that 'Bargh' means electricity in a general sense. When you see a bill with a yellow logo in Iran, that's the 'Ghabz-e Bargh'. At this stage, don't worry about the poetic meanings or complex physics. Just remember: Bargh = Power/Electricity. If you are in a hotel and the AC stops, tell the reception: 'Bargh moshkel darad' (The electricity has a problem). This simple noun-verb structure is enough to get your point across. You might also learn 'Barghi' as an adjective for things like 'Otou-ye barghi' (electric iron).
At the A2 level, you begin to use 'Bargh' with more descriptive verbs and in more specific contexts. You learn about 'Raad o Bargh' (thunder and lightning) when describing the weather. You start using 'Bargh gereftan' to describe getting a shock—a common warning for children. You also learn to distinguish between 'Bargh' and 'Cheragh' (lamp/light). At this level, you can talk about your daily routine involving 'Bargh', such as 'Man baraye kar ba laptop be bargh niaz daram' (I need electricity to work with my laptop). You also understand the concept of 'Ghat-e Bargh' (power cut) and can ask 'Bargh key miayad?' (When will the power come back?). Your vocabulary expands to include basic household items that are 'barghi'.

By B1, you can discuss the implications of 'Bargh' in society. You can talk about 'Masraf-e Bargh' (electricity consumption) and how to 'Sarf-e-jooyi' (save/economize) on energy. You understand more complex collocations like 'Bargh-e feshary-e ghavi' (high voltage) and the dangers associated with it. You can describe the 'Bargh' (shine) of objects using more nuance, perhaps comparing the 'bargh' of a new car to an old one. You are comfortable using the word in professional contexts, such as calling a 'Bargh-kar' (electrician) and explaining a specific problem like 'Fiooz paride' (The fuse has tripped). You also start to see 'Bargh' in common idioms and metaphors about speed and suddenness.

At the B2 level, 'Bargh' enters the realm of abstract thought and technical discussion. You can read news articles about 'Niroogah-haye khorshidi' (solar power plants) and their 'Tolid-e bargh' (electricity production). You understand the metaphorical use of 'Bargh' in literature to describe a 'flash of genius' or a 'spark of hope'. You can debate the pros and cons of nuclear vs. hydroelectric power using 'Bargh' as a central theme. Your use of the word for 'shine' becomes more precise; you might use it to describe the 'Bargh-e khasi' (special luster) of a silk fabric. You also understand the social commentary in Iran regarding 'Bargh' during 'Khamoushi' (blackouts) and can express opinions on infrastructure.

At the C1 level, you appreciate the poetic and historical depth of 'Bargh'. You can analyze classical poetry where 'Bargh' represents the divine epiphany or the destructive power of fate. You understand the etymological journey from the Arabic 'B-R-Q' and how it relates to other words like 'Boraq' (the celestial steed). In technical or academic writing, you use 'Bargh' with absolute precision, distinguishing between 'Bargh-e motenaveb' (AC) and 'Bargh-e mostaghim' (DC). You can use 'Bargh' in sophisticated idioms like 'Bargh az saresh parid' (He was extremely shocked/surprised). Your ability to use 'Bargh' to describe subtle visual textures (like the 'bargh' of a specific glaze in Persian pottery) shows high-level fluency.

At the C2 level, 'Bargh' is a tool for masterful expression. You can use it in high-level puns, complex metaphors, and technical discourse without hesitation. You might write an essay on the 'Electrification of Iran' and its impact on 20th-century social structures, using 'Bargh' as both a literal and symbolic catalyst for change. You can discern the subtle difference between 'Bargh' and 'Derakhshesh' in a philosophical text about the nature of light. You are familiar with archaic uses of the word in 10th-century texts and can compare them to modern slang. For a C2 learner, 'Bargh' is no longer just a word for a utility; it is a versatile element of the Persian language that spans from the mundane flick of a switch to the highest peaks of mystical poetry.

برق 30초 만에

  • Bargh is the standard Persian word for electricity, used in everyday life for power, bills, and appliances across all Persian-speaking regions.
  • It also means lightning (natural flash) and is often paired with 'raad' (thunder) to describe stormy weather conditions in meteorology.
  • The word describes the shine or luster of objects like jewelry, polished metal, or even a person's eyes in poetic and descriptive contexts.
  • Commonly used in light-verb constructions like 'bargh raft' (power went out) and 'bargh gereftan' (to get an electric shock or be stunned).

The Persian word برق (Bargh) is a multifaceted noun that serves as the primary term for electricity in modern Persian, while retaining its classical roots meaning lightning or a brilliant flash of light. In a contemporary context, it is the lifeblood of urban infrastructure in Iran, Tajikistan, and Afghanistan. When an Iranian says "Bargh raft," they aren't talking about a person named Bargh leaving; they are lamenting a power outage, a common occurrence during peak summer months. The word originates from Arabic but has been fully integrated into the Persian lexicon for centuries, evolving from a meteorological description to a technological necessity.

Primary Meaning
Electricity used for power and lighting in homes and industry.
Natural Phenomenon
Lightning (often paired with 'raad' for thunder).
Physical Property
The shine, glint, or luster on a surface like polished metal or a gemstone.

"امروز برق ساختمان ما برای دو ساعت قطع شد." (Today, our building's electricity was cut off for two hours.)

Beyond the literal, 'Bargh' carries a metaphorical weight. It describes the 'spark' in someone's eyes (bargh-e cheshm) indicating excitement, intelligence, or mischief. In the realm of physics and engineering, it forms the basis for terms like 'mohandesi-ye bargh' (electrical engineering). Historically, before the advent of the lightbulb, 'bargh' was purely the domain of the heavens—the sudden, terrifying flash during a storm. Today, it is so mundane that it is the first thing people check when a television turns off unexpectedly. The word's brevity—a single syllable ending in a sharp 'gh' sound—reflects the suddenness of the phenomenon it describes.

"برق نگاهش مرا ترساند." (The glint in his gaze frightened me.)

In the jewelry markets of Tehran's Grand Bazaar, you will hear merchants talk about the 'bargh' of a diamond. Here, it doesn't mean the diamond is plugged into a socket; it refers to the way the stone refracts light. This duality of 'utility' and 'beauty' makes 'Bargh' a rich word for learners. It bridges the gap between a high-tech utility bill and a 14th-century Hafez poem. Understanding 'Bargh' requires recognizing whether you are in a kitchen (electricity), a storm (lightning), or an art gallery (luster).

"رعد و برق شدیدی در آسمان دیده می‌شد." (Intense thunder and lightning were seen in the sky.)

Using برق (Bargh) correctly involves mastering its common light-verb pairings. Unlike English, where we 'turn on' electricity, in Persian, we usually 'connect' or 'disconnect' the flow, or more commonly, use the verb 'zadan' (to hit/strike) for lightning. For household electricity, the most vital verbs are 'raftan' (to go/go out) and 'amadan' (to come/return). When the lights flicker and die, you say 'Bargh raft'. When they flicker back to life, 'Bargh amad'. This personification of electricity as something that 'comes and goes' is a hallmark of colloquial Persian.

Bargh Gereftan
To get an electric shock. Example: 'Dastam ra bargh gereft' (My hand got shocked).
Bargh Andakhtan
To polish something until it shines. Literally 'to throw shine'.
Bargh-e Khoshk
Static electricity, often felt when touching a doorknob in winter.

"مواظب باش! این سیم برق دارد." (Be careful! This wire has electricity/is live.)

In technical settings, you will encounter 'Bargh-e se-faz' (three-phase power), used for industrial machinery. If someone is described as having 'Bargh-e se-faz gereftatesh' (three-phase power caught him), it's a slang way of saying they are extremely shocked, stunned, or acting crazy. When discussing appliances, you use the adjective 'barghi' (electric). For example, 'mesvak-e barghi' (electric toothbrush) or 'ghat-e barghi' (electric guitar). Note that 'Bargh' is almost always used in the singular, even when referring to multiple sources of power.

"کفش‌هایش را چنان واکس زد که برق می‌زد." (He polished his shoes so much they were shining.)

For students of literature, 'Bargh' appears in metaphors for speed. 'Mesl-e bargh' (like lightning/electricity) means extremely fast. 'Ba sorat-e bargh' (with the speed of lightning) is used to describe a quick reaction or a fast car. In formal writing, 'Bargh-resani' refers to the process of electrification or providing power to a region. If you are paying bills, look for 'Ghabz-e Bargh'. If you are looking for a light switch, you are looking for 'Kelid-e Bargh'.

You will encounter برق (Bargh) in four distinct environments. First, in the Domestic Sphere: This is the most common. Conversations about the 'ghabz' (bill), the 'paridan' (tripping) of the circuit breaker, or the 'sookhtan' (burning out) of an appliance due to a power surge. In Iranian households, especially during summer, the news 'Bargh-e mantagheye ma raft' (Our area's power went out) is a daily refrain. You'll hear it in the kitchen, the living room, and shouted across hallways when the internet router dies.

"تلویزیون به خاطر نوسان برق سوخت." (The TV burned out due to power fluctuations.)

Second, in the Professional/Technical World: If you walk past a construction site or a repair shop, you'll hear 'Bargh-kar' (electrician). On the news, reports on 'Niroogah-e Bargh' (power plants) or 'Saderat-e Bargh' (electricity exports) are frequent, as energy is a major part of the regional economy. Third, in Nature and Weather Reports: Meteorologists will warn of 'Raad o Bargh' (thunder and lightning) during the rainy seasons of spring and autumn. You'll hear this on the radio or see it in weather apps.

Finally, you hear it in Aesthetic Contexts: In a jewelry shop ('Bargh-e in tala'), a car showroom ('Bargh-e badane'), or even a hair salon ('Bargh-e moo'). In these cases, it's about the visual 'pop' or shine. Even in romantic songs, singers often refer to the 'Bargh-e negaah' (the spark of the gaze) of their beloved, which is a poetic way of describing the light reflecting off their eyes.

"مهندس برق مشغول تعمیر تابلو است." (The electrical engineer is busy repairing the panel.)

The most frequent mistake for English speakers is confusing برق (Bargh) with نور (Noor). While 'Noor' is the light itself (the photons hitting your eyes), 'Bargh' is the utility or the energy source. You don't 'turn on the electricity' (bargh ra roshan kon) in casual speech; you 'turn on the light' (cheragh ra roshan kon). However, if the whole house is dark because of a utility failure, you say 'Bargh nist' (There is no electricity), not 'Noor nist'.

Mistake: 'Bargh roshan kon'
Correction: Use 'Cheragh roshan kon' for a lamp, or 'Bargh ra vasl kon' if you mean the main breaker.
Mistake: Using 'Bargh' for 'Light' in a spiritual sense
Correction: Use 'Noor' for spiritual or divine light.

"اشتباه: من برق را در اتاق دیدم. (Correct: من نور را در اتاق دیدم.)"

Another nuance is the verb 'gereftan'. In English, you 'get a shock'. In Persian, 'Bargh' is the subject that 'takes' or 'grabs' you: 'Bargh mara gereft'. If you say 'Man bargh gereftam', it sounds like you went to the store and bought some electricity. Also, be careful with the word 'Lame' (often used for shine in some languages); in Persian, 'Bargh' is the standard word for luster, while 'Derakhshesh' is more formal/poetic. Using 'Bargh' for a dull shine is also a mistake; it implies a sharp, brilliant reflection.

Lastly, learners often forget that 'Bargh' is used for both 'lightning' and 'electricity'. If you see a flash in the sky and say 'Almas!' (Diamond!), people will be confused. Even though it's a flash, the weather phenomenon is always 'Bargh' or 'Saeghe'. Conversely, don't use 'Saeghe' to describe the power coming out of your wall socket; that is strictly 'Bargh'.

To truly master برق (Bargh), you must distinguish it from its synonyms and related terms. The most common related word is الکتریسیته (Elekterisite). This is a direct loanword from French/English and is used almost exclusively in scientific, academic, or highly technical textbooks. You will never hear a grandmother say 'Elekterisite raft'; she will always use 'Bargh'.

صاعقه (Saeghe)
Specifically refers to a lightning bolt that hits the ground. 'Bargh' is the flash; 'Saeghe' is the strike.
درخشش (Derakhshesh)
Glow or brilliance. More formal than 'Bargh' when describing shine.
تابش (Tabesh)
Radiation or beam of light, usually from the sun or a heat source.

"درخشش ستارگان در شب زیباست، اما برق الماس چیز دیگری است." (The glow of stars is beautiful, but the shine of a diamond is something else.)

Another word is جریان (Jaryan), meaning 'current'. In an electrical context, 'Jaryan-e Bargh' is the flow of electricity. If you want to sound more sophisticated in an engineering context, you use 'Jaryan'. For the physical sensation of a spark, you might use جرقه (Jaraghe). A 'Jaraghe' is a tiny spark from a fire or a short circuit, whereas 'Bargh' is the massive power behind it. Understanding these distinctions helps you move from A1 basic communication to B2/C1 precision.

Finally, consider روشنایی (Roshanayi). This means 'brightness' or 'illumination'. While 'Bargh' provides the power, 'Roshanayi' is the result. A city might have 'Bargh' but poor 'Roshanayi' if the streetlights are old. In poetry, 'Bargh' is often used to describe the speed of a thought or the suddenness of an epiphany, similar to the English 'bolt from the blue'.

팁

Power Outages

If the power goes out, say 'Bargh raft'. It's the most natural way. Everyone will understand you immediately. Don't say 'Electricity is gone'.

Electric Shock

Always warn others by saying 'Bargh darad'. This means 'It has electricity' or 'It's live'. It is a vital safety phrase. Use it for exposed wires or broken sockets.

Adjective Form

Add 'i' to 'Bargh' to describe appliances. 'Barghi' is very common. Use it for 'khodtarash-e barghi' (electric razor). It makes your vocabulary sound more natural.

The Bill

The 'Ghabz-e Bargh' is a common topic. In Iran, bills are often paid via apps now. Knowing this word helps with daily chores. Look for the yellow logo on the bill.

Storms

Pair 'Bargh' with 'Raad' for thunder. 'Raad o Bargh' is the full term for a storm. Use it when looking at the sky. It sounds much better than just saying 'rain'.

Speed

Use 'Mesl-e bargh' for speed. It's a great way to describe fast actions. 'Ghazayeash ra mesl-e bargh khord' (He ate his food like lightning). It's very common in stories.

Shine

Use 'Bargh' to describe clean things. If you wash your car, say 'Bargh mizanad'. It means it's so clean it's shining. It's a high compliment for cleanliness.

Mass Noun

Don't pluralize 'Bargh' for electricity. Treat it like 'water' or 'air'. This is a common mistake for beginners. Keep it singular even for big power plants.

The GH Sound

Practice the 'gh' sound carefully. It's the same as in 'Ghermez' (red). If you say it like 'k', it sounds like 'bark' (leaf). Clear pronunciation is key for this word.

Electricians

A 'Bargh-kar' is an electrician. If you have a home problem, ask for one. 'Bargh-keshi' is the act of wiring a house. These are useful words for homeowners.

자주 묻는 질문

10 질문

No, it also means lightning and shine. In modern Persian, electricity is the most common use. However, in poetry or weather reports, the other meanings are frequent. You must use context to decide. For example, 'Bargh-e cheshm' is shine, not electricity.

You say 'Bargh mara gereft'. Literally, this means 'The electricity grabbed me'. It is a common idiom. You can also say 'Bargh-gereftegi' for the medical condition. Be careful around open wires!

It is used in both registers. It is the standard word for electricity in news and daily life. 'Elekterisite' is the more academic version. You can use 'Bargh' in a university lecture or a grocery store.

'Bargh' is the flash of light in the sky. 'Saeghe' is the actual bolt that hits something. People often use them interchangeably in casual speech. But 'Saeghe' is more specific to the strike. 'Raad' is the sound (thunder).

No, a lightbulb is 'Lamp'. But you can say the lamp works with 'Bargh'. If you want to turn it on, you say 'Cheragh ra roshan kon'. If the lamp doesn't work because of the utility, you say 'Bargh nist'.

You say 'Gitar-e barghi'. The suffix '-i' turns the noun 'Bargh' into an adjective. This works for many appliances. For example, 'Mesvak-e barghi' for electric toothbrush. It's a very productive suffix.

It means 'like lightning' or 'very fast'. It is a common simile. You can use it for a fast car or a quick runner. 'Ba sorat-e bargh' is another variation. It emphasizes extreme speed and suddenness.

Technically 'Bargh-ha' exists, but it is rarely used. Electricity is treated as an uncountable mass noun. You wouldn't say 'I have three electricities'. You only use plural for specific types of electrical systems in engineering.

It means 'three-phase electricity'. It is used for industrial power. In slang, if someone is 'caught by three-phase power', it means they are very shocked. It's a funny way to describe someone's reaction. It implies a high-voltage surprise.

Because 'Bargh' also means luster or shine. Diamonds reflect light brilliantly. This meaning is older than the electricity meaning. You can use it for anything that glitters. It adds a poetic touch to descriptions.
