بزرگداشت گرفتن 30秒了解
- A formal Persian compound verb meaning 'to commemorate'.
- Used for honoring historical figures, artists, and national events.
- Distinguished from casual celebrations by its tone of respect.
- Commonly seen in news, academic, and cultural contexts in Iran.
The Persian phrase بزرگداشت گرفتن (bozorgdāsht gereftan) is a sophisticated compound verb that translates most accurately to "to commemorate," "to honor the memory of," or "to hold a memorial or tribute ceremony." It is a cornerstone of Persian formal and semi-formal communication, used extensively when discussing historical figures, late artists, national heroes, or significant cultural events. The word bozorgdāsht itself is a compound of bozorg (great/big) and the suffix -dāsht (from dāshtan, meaning keeping or holding), essentially signifying the act of 'keeping someone or something great' in the collective consciousness.
- Formal Commemoration
- This verb is primarily used in academic and governmental contexts. For instance, when a university organizes a seminar to celebrate the life of a famous poet like Hafez or Ferdowsi, the term بزرگداشت گرفتن is employed to describe the official act of organizing and executing that event. It implies a level of respect and institutional recognition that goes beyond a simple party or celebration.
- Societal Memory
- Beyond organized events, the term can be used metaphorically to describe a society's effort to keep a legacy alive. If a city names a street after a martyr or a scientist, people might say they are بزرگداشت میگیرند for that person's contributions. It is about the preservation of dignity and the acknowledgment of merit over time.
دانشگاه تهران برای استادان برجسته خود هر سال مراسم بزرگداشت میگیرد تا یاد آنها را زنده نگه دارد.
In everyday Persian, you might not use this verb for a friend's birthday party (where jashn gereftan is preferred), but you would certainly use it if you were organizing a formal gathering to remember a late grandfather who was a pillar of the community. The nuance lies in the weight of the legacy being recognized. It is a verb of gravitas. When you use بزرگداشت گرفتن, you are signaling that the subject is worthy of high esteem and that the community has a duty to remember their impact.
ما باید برای کسانی که در راه وطن فداکاری کردهاند، بزرگداشت بگیریم.
Furthermore, the verb is versatile in its grammatical structure. While gereftan (to take/get) acts as the light verb, the noun bozorgdāsht can stand alone in many contexts. However, the compound form is the active way to describe the process of conducting the ceremony. It bridges the gap between the abstract concept of honor and the concrete action of gathering people together. In modern media, you will frequently hear this phrase during national holidays or anniversaries of the passing of literary giants like Rumi or Khayyam.
- Public vs. Private
- While often public, it can be private. A family might decide to بزرگداشت بگیرد for the tenth anniversary of a matriarch's passing by inviting relatives and sharing stories. The scale doesn't change the verb; the intent of 'honoring memory' remains the core focus.
Mastering بزرگداشت گرفتن requires understanding its syntactical flexibility. As a compound verb, it follows the standard Persian conjugation of gereftan while the noun bozorgdāsht remains static. The most common way to structure a sentence is: [Subject] + [Prepositional Phrase with 'barāye'] + [Noun] + [Verb]. For example, "The city held a ceremony for the hero" becomes "Shahr barāye qahramān bozorgdāsht gereft."
- Tense Variations
- In the present continuous, it becomes دارند بزرگداشت میگیرند (They are holding a commemoration). In the future tense, it is بزرگداشت خواهند گرفت (They will hold a commemoration). Because this verb describes a planned event, the future and past tenses are much more common than the simple present in daily conversation.
فردا در تالار وحدت برای این هنرمند بزرگ بزرگداشت میگیرند.
Another important aspect is the object marker rā. While barāye is more frequent, you might encounter Yād-e u rā bozorg dāshtand, which is a slightly more literary and archaic way of saying the same thing (using the verb bozorg dāshtan directly). However, for B1 learners, sticking to bozorgdāsht gereftan is the most natural and safe choice for modern spoken and written Persian.
آیا میدانید چرا مردم هر سال برای این واقعه تاریخی بزرگداشت میگیرند؟
When using this verb in a negative sense, the 'na-' prefix attaches to the light verb: bozorgdāsht nagereftand. This is often used when discussing a perceived lack of respect or a forgotten anniversary. For instance, "They didn't commemorate the anniversary of his death" would be "Sālgard-e fowt-e u rā bozorgdāsht nagereftand." This highlights the social expectation that such events *should* occur.
- Passive Voice Usage
- In formal reports, you might see the passive form: بزرگداشت گرفته شد (A commemoration was held). This is very common in news headlines. For example: "Bozorgdāsht-e Sa'di dar Shirāz gerefte shod" (Sa'di's commemoration was held in Shiraz).
Finally, consider the register. While gereftan is neutral, in extremely formal or poetic contexts, you might see bargozār kardan (to hold/execute) used with bozorgdāsht. However, bozorgdāsht gereftan remains the most idiomatic expression for 'commemorating' in standard Persian. It effectively communicates both the event and the emotional intent of the participants.
You will encounter بزرگداشت گرفتن in several distinct environments in Iran and the wider Persian-speaking world. Understanding these contexts will help you recognize the cultural weight the phrase carries.
- News and Media
- The most frequent place to hear this verb is on the evening news or in newspapers (like Ettela'at or Shargh). When the government or a cultural foundation organizes an event for a national day—such as the National Day of Persian Poetry and Literature—the news anchor will report that ceremonies are being gerefte shod (held) across the country.
- Academic and Cultural Institutions
- Universities and the 'Farhangestān' (Academy of Language and Literature) are hubs for commemorations. If you visit a Persian university, you will see posters for 'Bozorgdāsht' events for retired professors or historical thinkers. Students and faculty use this term to describe these intellectual tributes.
صدا و سیما برای هنرمندان پیشکسوت برنامه بزرگداشت میگیرد.
In the arts, especially cinema and music, bozorgdāsht gereftan is used during festivals. For instance, at the Fajr International Film Festival, they often hold a 'bozorgdāsht' for a lifetime of achievement by a director or actor. You will hear the host say, "Emshab barāye ostād... bozorgdāsht migirim" (Tonight, we are honoring Master...).
انجمن آثار و مفاخر فرهنگی همواره برای بزرگان ادب بزرگداشت میگیرد.
Social media has also become a place for this verb. On the anniversary of a beloved singer's death (like Shajarian), fans will post videos and use the hashtag #بزرگداشت to virtually 'gereftan' (hold) a tribute. Even if there is no physical hall, the digital act of sharing memories is described using this terminology in a modern, expanded sense.
- Religious and Traditional Contexts
- While religious events often have specific names (like Rowzeh or Heyat), the general act of honoring a saint or a religious figure can still be described as bozorgdāsht gereftan in a formal historical discussion. It frames the religious event as a cultural commemoration.
When learning بزرگداشت گرفتن, English speakers often fall into traps caused by direct translation or confusing similar-sounding Persian verbs. Avoiding these errors will make your Persian sound much more natural and educated.
- Confusing with 'Jashn Gereftan'
- The biggest mistake is using bozorgdāsht gereftan for a 'celebration' that is purely joyful or casual. You wouldn't bozorgdāsht gereftan for a 5-year-old's birthday or a football win. That is jashn gereftan. Bozorgdāsht implies honoring a legacy, often posthumously or for a lifetime of work. Using it for a party sounds unintentionally funny or overly dramatic.
- Incorrect Prepositional Use
- Learners often forget the 'barāye' (for). In English, we say "to commemorate someone." In Persian, you must say "to hold a commemoration for someone." Saying "U rā bozorgdāsht gereftand" is grammatically clunky compared to "Barāye u bozorgdāsht gereftand."
Mistake: ما برای تولد دوستم بزرگداشت گرفتیم.
Correct: ما برای تولد دوستم جشن گرفتیم.
Another common error is confusing bozorgdāsht (commemoration) with bozorg-maneshi (magnanimity) or bozorgi (greatness). While they share the root bozorg, they are used in entirely different contexts. Bozorgdāsht is specifically about the act of honoring memory.
بسیاری از دانشجویان به اشتباه فکر میکنند بزرگداشت گرفتن فقط برای مردگان است، اما برای زندگان هم میتوان این مراسم را برگزار کرد.
Lastly, pay attention to the plural. While you can hold multiple commemorations (bozorgdāsht-hā), the verb gereftan usually stays singular unless you are referring to multiple distinct acts of 'taking'. For example, "They held various commemorations" would be "Bozorgdāsht-hā-ye mokhtalefi gereftand."
- Spelling Note
- In Persian script, bozorgdāsht is written as one word or with a 'half-space' (z-fāseleh). Writing it as two separate words bozorg dāsht changes the meaning to 'he/she had big...' which is a common typo for beginners.
Persian is rich with synonyms for 'honoring' and 'remembering'. Depending on the specific nuance you want to convey, you might choose one of these alternatives instead of بزرگداشت گرفتن.
- تجلیل کردن (Tajlil Kardan)
- This is perhaps the closest synonym. Tajlil means to glorify or pay tribute to. While bozorgdāsht often refers to the event itself, tajlil focuses more on the act of praising the person's virtues. You 'tajlil' someone's services to the country.
- یادواره گرفتن (Yādvareh Gereftan)
- This is specifically used for 'memorials', particularly for groups like martyrs (shohadā) or victims of a disaster. Yādvareh has a more collective and often more somber tone than the broader bozorgdāsht.
مراسم تجلیل از قهرمانان المپیک هفته آینده برگزار میشود.
Another alternative is تکریم کردن (Takrim Kardan), which means to treat with dignity or to venerate. This is often used for the elderly or religious scholars. While you bozorgdāsht gereftan for a poet, you might takrim kardan a retired teacher to show personal respect.
ما باید از مقام معلم تکریم کنیم.
For a more literary or poetic vibe, you might see Yād-e kasi rā gerāmi dāshtan (to hold someone's memory dear). This is very common in speeches and formal writing. It is less about the physical ceremony and more about the internal feeling of remembrance.
- Comparison Table
- بزرگداشت گرفتن: Focus on the formal ceremony/tribute.
- جشن گرفتن: Focus on joy/celebration (birthdays, weddings).
- یادبود گرفتن: Focus on memorializing someone who passed away.
- ستایش کردن: To praise or worship (more abstract).
How Formal Is It?

If your keyboard allows, use a half-space (z-fāseleh) between 'bozorg' and 'dāsht' if you write it as two parts, but one word is also standard.
News Cues
News anchors often use the passive 'gerefte shod'. If you hear this after a famous name, you know a tribute just happened.

词源
The term 'bozorgdāsht' is a Persian compound. 'Bozorg' comes from Middle Persian 'wuzurg', which traces back to Old Persian 'vazarka' (great). '-dāsht' is the past stem of 'dāshtan' (to have/hold), from Old Persian 'dar-'.
原始含义： The original sense was 'to hold in high esteem' or 'to maintain the greatness' of something.
Indo-European -> Indo-Iranian -> Iranian -> Persian.文化背景
When attending a 'Bozorgdāsht', avoid loud laughter or casual attire. It is a 'Sangin' (heavy/serious) atmosphere where respect is the currency.
The equivalent in English is 'to hold a tribute' or 'to commemorate'. However, 'bozorgdāsht' feels more formal and frequent in public life than 'commemoration' does in the US or UK.

10 个问题No, that would be incorrect. A wedding is a 'jashn' (celebration). 'Bozorgdāsht' is for honoring a legacy or historical significance. Using it for a wedding would sound like the wedding is a solemn historical tribute.
Not necessarily, but it is more common for the deceased. You can hold a 'bozorgdāsht' for a living person to honor their lifetime of work, often called a 'bozorgdāsht-e zendeh' (living tribute).
'Bozorgdāsht' is a general term for honoring greatness. 'Yādvāreh' is specifically a memorial, often used for groups like soldiers or victims of a tragedy. 'Yādvāreh' is usually more somber.
Iranians don't usually say 'Happy' for a commemoration. Instead, they might say 'Yādash gerāmi bād' (May his memory be dear) or 'Mobārak bād' if it's the national day of a poet, but generally, the focus is on 'Gerāmidāsht' (honoring).
Yes, it is considered a formal or semi-formal word. In very casual settings, people might just say 'marāsem' (ceremony) or 'yādbud' (memorial).
While 'bozorgdāsht kardan' is occasionally seen in writing, 'gereftan' is the standard light verb for the act of holding the event. 'Bargozār kardan' is the most formal alternative.
You should wear formal or business-casual clothing. These events are respectful and often attended by scholars, officials, or family members of the honored person.
There are many! The Iranian calendar has specific days for Sa'di, Hafez, Ferdowsi, and Khayyam, where 'bozorgdāsht' ceremonies are held nationwide.
Usually, it is for people or events. For a building, you might use 'jashn-e sālgerd' (anniversary celebration) or 'pāsdāsht' if it's a historical site.
You use the future form of 'gereftan': 'bozorgdāsht khāhand gereft' (they will hold a commemoration).
