意思
To trick or deceive someone.
文化背景
In the traditional bazaar, bargaining is an art. If you don't bargain and pay the first price asked, people might say 'Saret kolah raft' because you paid more than the 'real' price. Younger generations in Tehran might use 'Kolah-bardari' more often for online scams, but 'Kolah gozashtan' remains the standard for interpersonal lies. The phrase is also understood and used in Afghanistan, though synonyms like 'faraib dadan' are slightly more common in formal speech. Many classic Iranian films (Film-Farsi) revolve around a 'Kolah-makhmali' (velvet-hatted) hero who gets tricked by a city slicker, symbolizing the loss of traditional values.
Use the Passive
If you are the victim, it's more common to say 'Saram kolah raft' (I was tricked) than 'Saram kolah gozashtand' (They tricked me).
Don't be too literal
If you actually put a hat on someone's head, use 'Kolah sarash kardam' to avoid confusion with the idiom.

The 'Big' Hat

Bazaar Wisdom
When a seller says 'Saram kolah nagozar' (Don't trick me), they are often using reverse psychology to make you feel guilty for bargaining too hard!
