A2 Collocation 正式

آب آشامیدنی

ab-e ashamidani

Drinking water

意思

Water that is safe and suitable for human consumption.

🌍

文化背景

In many Iranian cities, tap water is safe to drink, but in some southern regions, people buy large 20-liter jugs of 'آب آشامیدنی' because the tap water is salty (brackish). During the month of Muharram, people set up 'Sabil' stations to distribute free 'آب آشامیدنی' and juice to passersby in honor of Imam Hussain. It is a deep-rooted custom to offer a glass of water to anyone entering your home, especially a worker or a guest who has traveled far. The 'Saqqakhaneh' is a unique Iranian architectural element—a public water station often decorated with mirrors and calligraphy.

💡

Look for the Label

On 1.5L bottles in Iran, you will see 'آب آشامیدنی' if it's purified water and 'آب معدنی' if it's natural mineral water. The former is usually cheaper.

⚠️

Non-potable Signs

In parks, if you see a sign saying 'آب غیرآشامیدنی', do not even wash your face with it; it might be recycled water for plants.

The Gift of Water

If you are in a traditional bazaar and someone offers you water from a jug, it's a sign of hospitality. You can say 'Dast-e shoma dard nakone' (May your hand not ache) when receiving it.
