Baran mibarad

It is raining

意思

A phrase describing that rain is falling.

🌍

文化背景

Rain is so valued that there is a specific 'Rain Prayer' (Namaz-e Istisqa) performed during droughts. People gather in open fields to pray for 'Baran'. Classical poets like Saadi and Hafez use rain as a metaphor for the lover's tears or the generosity of a king. In Tehran, rain is a double-edged sword: it cleans the smoggy air but causes massive traffic jams. Texting 'Barun miad' is often an excuse for being late. Unlike the rest of Iran, the North (Gilān and Māzandarān) is very rainy. People there have dozens of specific words for different types of rain.

💡

The 'Mi' Rule

Always include the 'mi-' prefix when describing rain happening now. Without it, the sentence is grammatically incomplete.

⚠️

No 'It' Needed

Never start the sentence with 'An' (It). Just start with 'Baran'.
