文化背景

In classical poetry, this phrase is often used to describe the 'pain of love'. The lover is so desperate to see the beloved that their soul is about to leave their body. It is the 'national idiom' for Tehran traffic. You will hear it on the radio, in taxis, and in family gatherings daily. Using this phrase can be a way to 'complain politely'. It focuses on your own internal suffering rather than directly attacking the other person.

⚠️

Don't overdo it
