뜻
Arranging dishes for a meal.
문화적 배경
In Pakistan, setting the table often involves placing a large jug of water (lota or jug) and shared bowls of curry, emphasizing communal eating. The 'Dastarkhwan' is still highly respected. Even when using a table, some families might place a cloth over the table that they refer to as the Dastarkhwan. Many Urdu speakers in the diaspora combine Western table settings with Middle Eastern styles, such as using large platters of rice (Pulao) as a centerpiece. In cities like Karachi or Lahore, 'Mez Sajana' has become a hobby for many, with 'table styling' being a popular topic on social media during Ramadan and Eid.

The 'Mehmaan' Rule
Always use 'Sajana' when talking about guests; it shows you are putting in extra effort.
