Significado
To become unhappy or upset.
Contexto cultural
In Iranian culture, expressing that you are 'nārāhat' is often a subtle way to ask for an apology without being direct. It's part of the emotional intelligence required for 'Ta'arof'. In Dari, 'jigar-khun shodan' (literally: to have a bloody liver) is a very common and more intense way to say you are upset or heartbroken, though 'nārāhat shodan' is also used. Tajik speakers use 'nārohāt shudan' similarly, but in formal contexts, they might prefer 'ghamgin shudan' more frequently than Iranians do. Second-generation Iranians often use 'nārāhat' as a direct translation for 'upset' in English, sometimes losing the subtle 'offended' nuance of the original Persian.
The 'Az' Rule
Always remember that the cause of your sadness follows 'az'. 'Az in khabar nārāhat shodam'.
Don't over-apologize
While 'nārāhat nasho' is polite, saying it too much can make you sound like you are guilty of something.

Use 'Delkhor' for friends
If a friend is acting cold, ask 'Delkhor shodi?' (Are you miffed?). It sounds more natural than 'Nārāhat shodi?'
Empathy is key
In Iran, saying 'Nārāhat shodam' when someone tells you their problems is the most common way to show you are a good listener.
