意思
To feel pity or compassion for someone's situation.
文化背景
In Iran, showing empathy is a sign of a 'good heart'. People who don't show empathy are often called 'سنگدل' (stone-hearted). The phrase is used identically in Dari, reflecting the shared Persian linguistic and cultural heritage. In Tajikistan, the phrase is also understood, though 'дилсӯзӣ' (dilsūzī) is the noun form often used for 'compassion'. Persian speakers living abroad often use this phrase to maintain a connection to their emotional roots, even when speaking English.
Context is key
Always use 'برای' (for) after the phrase to specify who you are talking about.
Don't be patronizing
Be careful when saying this to someone directly; it can sound like you are pitying them, which might be offensive.
