A2 Expression 正式

عجله کنید

ajaleh konid

Hurry up

意思

An instruction to move or act quickly.

🌍

文化背景

In Tehran, 'ajale konid' is a survival phrase. Due to extreme traffic, people are constantly urging each other to move faster to avoid getting stuck for hours. The concept of 'Ta'arof' means you should never rush a guest. Even if you are tired, saying 'ajale konid' to a guest is a major social faux pas. In the traditional bazaar, 'ajale kardan' can be a tactic. Sellers might tell you to hurry because 'this is the last one', while buyers use it to show they don't have time for long negotiations. In Dari Persian, 'ajala' is also used, but you might also hear 'zood shaven' (be quick) more frequently in formal contexts.

🎯

The 'Lotfan' Rule

Always add 'Lotfan' (Please) before 'ajale konid' to avoid sounding like a drill sergeant.

⚠️

Guest Etiquette

Never use this with guests. It is better to be late than to be a rude host in Iranian culture.

Traffic Talk

If you are in a Snapp (Iranian Uber), saying 'Ajale daram' (I am in a hurry) is more effective than 'Ajale konid' (Hurry up).

💡

Singular vs Plural

When in doubt, always use the plural 'konid'. It is never rude to be too formal.

It depends on the tone. With 'lotfan' and a soft voice, it's polite. Shouted, it's a command.

Only if it's an emergency. Otherwise, use 'bebakhshid, vaqt tamam shod' (Sorry, time is up).

'Ajale konid' is 'hurry up', 'zood bashid' is 'be quick'. The latter is more direct.

Say 'Ajale daram' (عجله دارم).

Yes, 'Bodo' (Run!) is very common slang for 'hurry up'.

In modern spoken Persian, the imperative prefix 'be-' is often dropped for compound verbs.

Yes, but use 'Lotfan dar pasokh-gu'i tasri' farma'id' for very formal business.

It means 'Haste is the devil's work', a proverb advising patience.

Say 'Ajale nakonid' (عجله نکنید).

Yes, it is perfectly understood and used in Dari.
