意思
To annoy or provoke someone. To upset someone by saying or doing something wrong.
文化背景
In Iran, direct confrontation is often avoided in favor of metaphors. This idiom allows someone to express anger without being overly literal or 'ugly' in their speech. Classical Persian poetry often uses animal metaphors to describe human traits. The 'tail' is seen as a symbol of one's reach or influence. In modern Tehran, this idiom is very common among youth as a way to set boundaries in a cool, slightly tough way.
Use it for boundaries
This is the best phrase to use when someone is teasing you and you want them to stop without being too aggressive.
Mind the verb
Always remember to conjugate 'gozāshtan'. For 'you put', it's 'gozāshti'; for 'don't put', it's 'nagozār'.

There isn't a direct formal idiom. You would use 'M مزاحم نشوید' (Don't bother me) or 'اذیت نکنید'.
