صبوری کردن

To endure difficult circumstances without complaint; to be patient.

At the A1 level, you don't need to use 'صبوری کردن' (Saburi kardan) yet. You should focus on the simple word 'صبر' (Sabr) which means 'patience' or 'wait'. You might hear someone say 'صبر کن' (Sabr kon) which means 'Wait!'. At this stage, just think of 'Saburi' as a fancy way of saying 'being very patient'. You can recognize it by the word 'Sabr' inside it. If you see it in a sentence, it usually means someone is trying to stay calm and wait for something good to happen. It is like saying 'I am waiting with a good heart'. Most A1 learners will use 'منتظر بودن' (to be waiting) instead, and that is perfectly fine. Just remember that 'Saburi' is a positive thing in Iran.

At the A2 level, you can start to recognize 'صبوری کردن' as a compound verb. You know that 'kardan' means 'to do'. So, 'Saburi kardan' is 'to do patience'. You might use it in simple sentences about family or school. For example, 'مادر صبوری می‌کند' (Mother is being patient). You should understand that this is more than just waiting for a bus; it is about being a strong person when things are a little bit difficult. You can use it to describe someone you admire. It's a good word to use when you want to sound more polite and respectful than just using 'صبر کردن'. Try to remember that it doesn't usually take the word 'ra' after the problem.

At the B1 level (your current level), 'صبوری کردن' is an essential part of your vocabulary for discussing emotions and life challenges. You should be able to use it to describe enduring difficult circumstances without complaining. You can conjugate it in the past tense (صبوری کردم) and the present tense (صبوری می‌کنم). You should also start using it with the preposition 'در برابر' (in the face of). For example: 'او در برابر بیماری صبوری کرد' (He was patient/endured in the face of illness). This level requires you to distinguish between 'waiting' (sabr kardan) and 'enduring with grace' (saburi kardan). It is a key word for describing the 'Iranian spirit' of resilience in conversations about society or personal history.
At the B2 level, you should use 'صبوری کردن' to express complex emotional states and abstract concepts. You can use it in the subjunctive mood to give advice: 'لازم است که در این شرایط صبوری کنی' (It is necessary that you exercise patience in these conditions). You should also be aware of its collocations, such as 'صبوری پیشه کردن' (to adopt patience as a habit). At this level, you can use the verb to discuss literature, news, or psychological topics. You understand the nuance that 'Saburi' implies a long-term commitment to staying calm, and you can compare it with synonyms like 'تحمل کردن' (to tolerate) to show that 'Saburi' has a more positive, virtuous connotation.

At the C1 level, 'صبوری کردن' becomes a tool for nuanced expression in formal writing and sophisticated debate. You should be able to analyze its use in classical Persian poetry (like Rumi or Saadi) and explain how the concept of 'Sabr' has evolved. You can use it to describe socio-political endurance or philosophical stoicism. You should be comfortable using its derivatives and related forms like 'صبورانه' (patiently) or 'شکیبایی'. Your usage should reflect an understanding of the word's 'weight'—knowing that using it adds a layer of respect and gravity to the subject. You can also use it in complex sentence structures with multiple clauses to describe the internal process of a character or a historical figure.

At the C2 level, you have a near-native grasp of 'صبوری کردن'. You understand its deepest cultural and mystical resonances. You can use it to discuss theodicy (the problem of evil) or the highest forms of human ethics in Persian thought. You can effortlessly switch between 'صبوری کردن', 'شکیبایی ورزیدن', and 'تاب آوردن' to achieve specific rhetorical effects. You recognize the word's presence in 'Zarb-ol-masals' (proverbs) and can use them appropriately in high-level discourse. Your use of the verb is not just grammatically perfect but culturally 'tuned', knowing exactly how much emotional weight it carries in different Iranian sub-cultures and historical contexts.

صبوری کردن em 30 segundos

  • A compound verb meaning to endure hardship with grace and emotional strength.
  • More profound than simple waiting; it implies a virtuous struggle against adversity.
  • Commonly used in literature, formal speech, and to offer deep consolation.
  • Requires prepositions like 'dar barabar-e' (in the face of) for specific contexts.

The Persian verb صبوری کردن (Saburi kardan) is a sophisticated compound verb that transcends the simple English translation of 'to wait'. It is rooted in the Arabic concept of Sabr, but in Persian, the addition of the suffix '-i' (forming 'Saburi') transforms the noun into a quality or a state of being. To perform 'Saburi' is to actively engage in the process of endurance, resilience, and emotional steadfastness. It implies a conscious decision to remain calm and composed in the face of adversity, grief, or delay. Unlike the basic verb صبر کردن, which might just mean waiting for a bus, صبوری کردن suggests a deeper, often more painful or prolonged period of internal struggle where one maintains their dignity and hope.

Active Endurance
It is not passive; it is the active management of one's internal state during external chaos.
Moral Fortitude
Often associated with high moral character and spiritual maturity in Iranian culture.
Temporal Depth
Usually refers to long-term challenges rather than momentary inconveniences.

"در برابر سختی‌های زندگی باید صبوری کردن را آموخت تا به آرامش رسید."

— Common philosophical advice in Persian literature.

In the context of Persian psychology, this verb is frequently used to describe the behavior of someone who is undergoing a 'trial' (emtehan). It is the hallmark of the Aref (mystic) or the Ashegh (lover) who must endure the distance from the beloved. The word carries a weight of respect; when you tell someone they are 'doing Saburi', you are acknowledging their strength and suffering simultaneously. It is a verb of recognition.

مادر برای بزرگ کردن فرزندانش سال‌ها صبوری کرد.

The linguistic structure is a 'Light Verb Construction' (LVC). The non-verbal element 'Saburi' (patience-ness) combines with the light verb 'kardan' (to do). This allows for a wide range of conjugations and nuances. For instance, one might say 'Saburi pish-e kardan' (to adopt patience) for a more formal tone. However, 'Saburi kardan' remains the most versatile and emotionally resonant form for expressing the act of holding one's ground against the tides of misfortune.

Etymological Root
Derived from 'S-B-R' (Arabic) meaning to bind or restrain, specifically restraining the soul from agitation.

او در سوگ از دست دادن عزیزش بسیار صبوری کرد.

Using صبوری کردن correctly requires understanding its register and the specific prepositions that accompany it. While it is a B1 level word, its mastery involves knowing when to use it instead of its simpler counterparts. It is most commonly used in the past tense to describe a period of trial that has been successfully navigated, or in the imperative to offer deep, meaningful encouragement.

1. Prepositional Patterns

The most frequent companion to this verb is در برابر (in the face of/against) or بر (upon - more poetic). For example, "در برابر مشکلات صبوری کن" (Be patient in the face of problems). Using it without a preposition usually implies a general state of being patient during a difficult phase of life.

باید در برابر ناملایمات صبوری کرد تا پیروز شد.

2. Conjugation Nuances

In spoken Persian (Tehrani dialect), the 'kardan' part often contracts. However, because 'Saburi kardan' is slightly more formal/literary, it often retains its full form even in speech to maintain the gravity of the sentiment. You might hear "صبوری کن" (Saburi kon) in a serious conversation between friends where one is consoling the other.

Present Continuous
دارم صبوری می‌کنم (I am being patient/enduring right now).
Subjunctive (Advice)
باید صبوری کنی (You must be patient).

3. Formal vs. Informal

In highly formal or academic writing, you might see شکیبایی ورزیدن (Shekiba'i varzidan). In very casual settings, people just say صبر کن (Sabr kon). صبوری کردن sits perfectly in the middle—it is respectful, emotional, and grammatically standard for both high-level conversation and literature.

او با صبوری کردن توانست تمام موانع را پشت سر بگذارد.

When writing, use this verb to add emotional weight to your characters or arguments. It suggests a process of growth. It is often paired with adverbs like بسیار (very much) or اندکی (a little) to quantify the endurance required.

You will encounter صبوری کردن in various spheres of Iranian life, from the profound verses of classical poets to the modern scripts of Iranian 'social drama' films. It is a word that resonates with the Iranian historical experience of enduring various hardships.

1. Classical and Modern Poetry

Poets like Saadi and Hafez frequently discuss 'Sabr' and 'Saburi'. In modern times, the famous poem by Houshang Ebtehaj (Sayeh) or the lyrics of traditional singers like Shajarian often feature this verb to describe the lover's wait or the political prisoner's endurance. It carries a melodic, rhythmic quality that fits Persian prosody perfectly.

"صبوری کن که حلوا سازی از غوره!"

— A famous Persian proverb meaning 'Be patient, for you can make halva from unripe grapes.'

2. Cinema and Television

In Iranian cinema, which often focuses on domestic struggles and moral dilemmas, you will hear a grandmother or a wise friend telling the protagonist to "صبوری کن". It is the go-to verb for scenes involving mourning, financial ruin, or waiting for a loved one to return from a journey or prison. It signals a shift from anger to acceptance.

Social Context
Heard during funerals, hospital visits, or times of national economic crisis.
Religious Context
In sermons (Rowzeh), describing the patience of historical figures like Hazrat-e Zeynab.

3. Daily Advice and Therapy

Modern Iranian psychologists and life coaches use this term to discuss 'Resilience'. Instead of the English loanword, they emphasize the cultural root of صبوری کردن as a tool for mental health. You'll hear it in podcasts and self-help books as a virtue to be cultivated in a fast-paced world.

در این شرایط سخت اقتصادی، همه مردم در حال صبوری کردن هستند.

Even for intermediate learners, the nuances of صبوری کردن can be tricky. Because Persian has several ways to express 'patience', it is easy to use the wrong register or the wrong grammatical structure.

1. Confusing with 'Sabr Kardan'

The most common mistake is using صبوری کردن for mundane waiting. If you are waiting for a friend at a cafe, saying "دارم صبوری می‌کنم" sounds like you are undergoing a spiritual transformation while waiting for your latte. Use منتظر بودن or صبر کردن for simple time-based waiting.

Wrong
برای اتوبوس صبوری کردم. (I endured the bus.) - Sounds like the bus was a tragic life event.
Right
برای اتوبوس صبر کردم. (I waited for the bus.)

2. Incorrect Preposition Usage

Learners often try to use را (ra) with this verb. Remember, صبوری کردن is an intransitive compound verb. You don't 'patient' something; you 'do patience' in the face of something.

او مشکلات را صبوری کرد.

او در برابر مشکلات صبوری کرد.

3. Confusing with 'Sabur Budan'

صبور بودن (to be patient) describes a personality trait. صبوری کردن describes the specific action or process. If you want to say someone is generally a patient person, use the adjective with 'to be'. If you want to say they handled a specific crisis well, use the verb 'to do'.

4. Spelling/Pronunciation

Ensure you don't confuse the 'u' sound in Saburi with the 'o' in Sabr. The 'i' at the end is crucial; without it, the verb doesn't function as this specific idiom of endurance.

Persian is rich with synonyms for endurance, each carrying a slightly different flavor. Understanding these will help you choose the right word for the right context.

شکیبایی کردن (Shekiba'i kardan)
The most formal and literary synonym. Used in classical poetry and formal speeches. It has a very 'pure' Persian feel (Pars-e Sereh).
تحمل کردن (Tahammol kardan)
Means 'to tolerate' or 'to bear'. It is more neutral and can be used for physical weight or annoying people. It lacks the 'virtuous' connotation of Saburi.
بردباری کردن (Bordbari kardan)
Focuses on the capacity to carry a heavy emotional load. Often used in the context of leadership or parenting.
تاب آوردن (Tab avardan)
Means 'to withstand' or 'to last'. Used when something is almost breaking you, but you manage to stay upright.

تفاوت صبوری کردن و تحمل کردن در این است که در صبوری، امیدی نهفته است، اما در تحمل ممکن است فقط ناچاری باشد.

— Linguistic distinction: Saburi implies hope; Tahammol might imply mere necessity.

When comparing صبوری کردن to مدارا کردن (Modara kardan), the latter means 'to compromise' or 'to get along with someone difficult'. Saburi is an internal process, while Modara is an interpersonal one.

او با بردباری تمام به حرف‌های من گوش داد، اما من می‌دانستم که او در دلش در حال صبوری کردن است.
