意思
An imperative to direct one's gaze.
文化背景
Direct eye contact while saying 'negāh kon' is expected among friends but should be softened with elders. In Tehran, 'Bebin' (See) is often used more frequently than 'Negāh kon' as a conversational filler. The concept of 'Negāh' is central to Sufi poetry, representing the divine glance. In Dari, 'Bebīn' is also very common, but 'Negāh ko' (shortened) is frequently heard in Kabul.
The 'h' is silent
In Tehran, nobody pronounces the 'h' in 'negāh'. It sounds like 'negā kon'.
Don't be too bossy
Using 'negāh kon' repeatedly can sound like you are commanding someone. Mix it up with 'bebin'.
