意思
To read current news from a newspaper.
文化背景
The 'Dake-ye Ruznameh-forushi' (newspaper kiosk) is a vital social hub in Iranian cities. People often stand in front of them just to read the headlines of various papers for free. In the 1960s and 70s, cafes like 'Cafe Naderi' were famous for writers and poets who spent all day 'Ruznameh khandan' and discussing politics. Reading the paper is often seen as a 'fatherly' or 'grandfatherly' task, associated with the morning tea ritual in the courtyard. While physical papers are declining, the phrase is still used for reading digital versions of major papers like 'Ettela'at' or 'Shargh' on tablets.
Omit the 'ra'
When talking about the general habit, don't say 'Ruznameh ra khandan'. Just say 'Ruznameh khandan'.
Headline Culture
If you are in Iran, try 'Titr khani' at a kiosk. It's a great way to practice reading without buying a whole paper.
