意思
Describing someone who is very generous and open-handed.
文化背景
Being 'dast o del bāz' is considered the highest virtue for a host. An Iranian host will often feel ashamed if they cannot provide an abundance of food, even if they have limited means. In Islamic and Zoroastrian traditions in Iran, 'Sakhāvat' (generosity) is a spiritual duty. The idiom reflects the idea that wealth is a gift to be shared, not hoarded. In the traditional Bazaar, a 'dast o del bāz' merchant is one who gives fair weights and sometimes adds a little extra for free (dasht).
Use it for Ta'arof
When someone offers to pay for you, calling them 'dast o del bāz' is a polite way to acknowledge their kindness even if you insist on paying yourself.
Don't over-use 'Lārj'
While 'Lārj' is common, it can sound a bit too informal or even sarcastic in the wrong company. Stick to 'Dast o del bāz' for genuine compliments.
