解析 قوری in your Level:

At the A1 level, 'قوری' (ghoori) is a fundamental vocabulary word for the kitchen. You should learn it alongside words like 'chay' (tea), 'ab' (water), and 'maman' (mom). At this stage, you only need to know that it is the object used to hold tea. You will use it in very simple sentences like 'This is a teapot' (In yek ghoori ast) or 'The teapot is big' (Ghoori bozorg ast). You should focus on recognizing the word when you see it in a kitchen or on a menu. It is one of the first nouns students learn because tea is so central to Iranian life. You might also learn the color of the teapot, like 'ghoori-ye ghermez' (red teapot). The goal is basic identification and being able to point to it and name it correctly.

At the A2 level, you begin to use 'قوری' in the context of daily routines. You should be able to describe where the teapot is located using prepositions. For example, 'The teapot is on the table' (Ghoori rooye miz ast) or 'The teapot is in the cupboard' (Ghoori dar kabinet ast). You will also start using simple verbs like 'shostan' (to wash) or 'kharidan' (to buy). You might say, 'I am washing the teapot' (Man daram ghoori ra mishuyam). At this level, you should also understand the difference between 'ghoori' and 'ketri' (kettle), as you start to learn about the process of making tea. You can describe the material simply, such as 'ghoori-ye chini' (porcelain teapot).

At the B1 level, you can use 'قوری' to describe more complex actions and preferences. You should be able to talk about the process of brewing tea using the verb 'dam kardan'. For example, 'Wait ten minutes for the tea in the teapot to steep' (dah daghigh-eh sabr kon ta chay dar ghoori dam bekeshad). You can also use the word in the context of shopping and making choices. 'I want a teapot that doesn't break easily' (Man ghoori-yi mikham ke zood nashekaneh). You will start to encounter the word in social settings, like asking a host where the teapot is so you can help. You should also be comfortable with the possessive forms and pluralization in more natural, flowing sentences.

At the B2 level, 'قوری' appears in more nuanced discussions about culture and quality. You might discuss the merits of different types of teapots—porcelain versus glass—and how they affect the taste of the tea. You can use the word in hypothetical situations: 'If the teapot hadn't broken, we could have served tea to everyone' (Agar ghoori nashekasteh bood, mitoonestim be hameh chay bedim). You will also understand the metaphorical significance of the teapot in Iranian hospitality. At this stage, your pronunciation of the 'gh' sound should be more accurate, and you should be able to use the word in more formal settings, such as describing an antique 'ghoori' in a museum or a high-end shop using sophisticated adjectives.

At the C1 level, you can understand the word 'قوری' within the context of Persian literature, idioms, and historical narratives. You might read a story where a 'ghoori-ye band-zani' (mended teapot) is a symbol of a family's history or resilience. You can engage in detailed conversations about the history of tea in Iran and how the design of the 'ghoori' has evolved. You should be able to use the word in complex grammatical structures, including passive voice or intricate relative clauses. You can also distinguish between different regional terms or very specific types of antique teapots. Your usage of the word will be indistinguishable from a native speaker, including the subtle cultural 'Ta'arof' associated with serving from the pot.

At the C2 level, 'قوری' is a word you can use with full mastery of its poetic and symbolic potential. You can analyze the role of the teapot in Persian art and cinema, or discuss the socio-economic implications of the porcelain trade that brought these vessels to Iran. You understand the most obscure references and can use the word in high-level academic or literary writing. Whether you are discussing the thermodynamics of a specific 'ghoori' design or writing a poem about the steam rising from its spout, you have a complete grasp of the word's place in the Persian language. You can also navigate very specific dialects where the word might be pronounced slightly differently or replaced by a local term.

قوری 30秒了解

A 'ghoori' is a Persian teapot used specifically for brewing tea via steam.
It is usually made of porcelain or glass and sits atop a kettle or samovar.
The word is central to Iranian hospitality and the daily ritual of tea drinking.
Commonly confused with 'ketri' (kettle), but the 'ghoori' is for steeping, not boiling.

The Persian word قوری (pronounced 'ghoori') refers to a teapot, an indispensable vessel in the Iranian household. To understand this word is to step into the very heart of Persian hospitality and daily ritual. Unlike in some Western cultures where tea might be a quick bag in a mug, the Iranian tea process is an art form that centers entirely around the ghoori. This vessel is specifically designed to sit atop a kettle (ketri) or a samovar, utilizing the rising steam to gently brew the tea leaves inside. This method, known as 'dam kardan', ensures that the tea is never boiled directly, preserving its delicate aroma and deep ruby color.

Material and Craft: Traditionally, the finest teapots are made of porcelain, known in Persian as chini. You will also find them made of heat-resistant glass, allowing the brewer to observe the color of the tea as it steeps, or clay (sofal) in more rustic settings. In historical contexts, silver or brass teapots were signs of extreme wealth and status.

مادربزرگ همیشه قوری چینی قرمز خود را برای مهمانان عزیز بیرون می‌آورد. (Grandmother always brings out her red porcelain teapot for dear guests.)

The anatomy of a ghoori is distinct: it features a wide body to allow tea leaves to expand, a curved spout (looleh) designed for a smooth pour without dripping, and a handle (dasteh) that remains cool to the touch. The lid (dar-e ghoori) often has a small hole to release pressure. In Iranian culture, the teapot is rarely brought to the dining table; instead, it remains in the kitchen or on the samovar in the living area, symbolizing a constant source of warmth and welcome. When someone says 'the teapot is on' (ghoori rooye samavare), it is an invitation to stay, talk, and connect. Historically, the 'ghoori' represents the shift from coffee culture to tea culture in Iran during the 19th century, a transition so complete that the teapot is now the undisputed monarch of the Iranian kitchen.

Symbolism: The teapot is a symbol of domestic stability. A 'cold teapot' implies a house where no guests come and no warmth resides, while a 'steaming teapot' signifies life, conversation, and family unity.

این قوری قدیمی یادگار دوران جوانی مادرم است. (This old teapot is a memento from my mother's youth.)

Modern Usage: Even in modern Iranian apartments with electric kettles, the teapot remains a separate entity. Most Iranians reject 'all-in-one' electric tea makers in favor of a separate glass or ceramic ghoori that can sit and 'dam bekeshad' (steep) properly.

In summary, the ghoori is not just a kitchen tool; it is a cultural icon. It represents the slow pace of Persian life, the importance of the 'chay' (tea) break, and the meticulous care Iranians take in treating their guests. Whether it is a simple everyday clay pot or an ornate hand-painted porcelain masterpiece, the ghoori is the vessel through which the spirit of Iranian kindness is poured.

Using the word قوری in a sentence requires an understanding of basic Persian sentence structure (Subject-Object-Verb) and the specific verbs associated with tea preparation. The most common verb paired with teapot is dam kardan (to brew/steep). When you want to say you are making tea, you don't 'make' it in the teapot; you 'put the tea to steep' inside it. For example, 'I put the tea in the teapot' is Chay ra dar ghoori rikhtam.

لطفاً قوری را روی سماور بگذار تا چای دم بکشد. (Please put the teapot on the samovar so the tea can steep.)

Common Verbs: 1. شستن (Shostan): To wash. Used when cleaning the pot.
2. شکستن (Shekastan): To break. A tragic event for a favorite teapot.
3. پر کردن (Por kardan): To fill.
4. خالی کردن (Khali kardan): To empty.

When describing the teapot, you will often use adjectives related to material or origin. A 'Chinese teapot' (ghoori-ye chini) is the gold standard. You might also hear 'ghoori-ye band-zani shodeh' (a mended teapot), which carries a nostalgic and sentimental connotation. In possessive forms, remember the 'Ezafe' (the short 'e' sound connecting words): ghoori-ye man (my teapot), ghoori-ye abi (the blue teapot).

مواظب باش! قوری خیلی داغ است. (Be careful! The teapot is very hot.)

In plural form, it becomes ghoori-ha. In a sentence like 'The teapots in the bazaar are beautiful', you would say: Ghoori-ha-ye bazaar ziba hastand. You can also use it in the diminutive form ghoorak, though this is rare and usually refers to a toy or a very small individual pot. Another important context is the 'set'—ghoori o ketri (teapot and kettle). They are almost always mentioned together as a pair.

من یک قوری شیشه‌ای خریدم تا رنگ چای را ببینم. (I bought a glass teapot so I could see the color of the tea.)

Prepositions: - در (Dar): Inside. (Tea is in the pot).
- روی (Rooye): On top of. (The pot is on the kettle).
- از (Az): From. (Pouring tea from the pot).

Advanced learners should note the use of ghoori in compound sentences involving the passage of time. 'Wait until the tea in the teapot steeps' is Sabr kon ta chay dar ghoori dam bekeshad. Here, the teapot is the location of the transformation from water and leaves into the national beverage. Whether you are asking for its location or describing its beauty, ghoori is a word that flows naturally in any Persian kitchen conversation.

You will encounter the word قوری in several distinct environments in Iran, each carrying its own atmosphere. The most common place is, of course, the ashpazkhaneh (kitchen). Every morning, the first sound in an Iranian home is often the clinking of the ghoori being placed on the kettle. You will hear mothers calling out, 'Has the tea in the teapot steeped yet?' (Chay-e ghoori dam keshideh?).

The Grand Bazaar: In the copper or ceramic sections of any Iranian bazaar (like Tehran, Isfahan, or Tabriz), the word ghoori is shouted by vendors showcasing their wares. You'll hear phrases like 'Ghoori-ye band-zani!' (referring to the antique style) or 'Ghoori-ye chini-ye darajeh yek!' (First-class porcelain teapot!). Merchants will use the word to describe the quality, capacity, and heat resistance of their products.

فروشنده گفت این قوری نشکن است. (The seller said this teapot is unbreakable.)

Another frequent setting is the Chai-khaneh (traditional teahouse). While many teahouses serve tea in individual glasses, more traditional or 'majlesi' (formal) establishments will bring a small ghoori to your table, often sitting on a small charcoal heater or a candle to keep it warm. Here, the word is used when ordering: 'A teapot for two, please' (Yek ghoori-ye do nafareh, lotfan).

You will also hear it in Persian literature and folk songs. There is a famous children's song/poem about a 'Ghoori-ye band-zani' that reflects on the passing of time and the beauty of old things. In modern TV dramas, the kitchen scene with a steaming ghoori is a visual shorthand for 'home' and 'comfort'. If a character is upset, another will inevitably say, 'Let me put the teapot on' to soothe the situation.

Technical Contexts: In appliance stores, you'll hear it in the context of 'Chay-saz' (tea makers). Salespeople will discuss the 'ghoori' size in liters and whether the material is 'pirکس' (Pyrex/heat-resistant glass) or 'chini' (porcelain).

صدای سوت کتری یعنی وقت آن است که قوری را آماده کنی. (The sound of the kettle's whistle means it's time to prepare the teapot.)

Finally, in religious or mourning ceremonies (Hey'ats), massive teapots are used to serve hundreds of people. While these are technically 'ghoori', they are often so large they require two hands to lift. In every corner of Iranian life, from the smallest nomad tent to the most luxurious Tehran penthouse, the word ghoori is the herald of the next cup of tea.

For English speakers learning Persian, the most common mistake is confusing the قوری (teapot) with the کتری (ketri - kettle). In English, we sometimes use the terms loosely, but in Persian, the distinction is vital because they serve two different functional roles in the brewing process. You boil water in the ketri, but you brew the tea in the ghoori. If you say you want to 'boil the teapot', an Iranian will look at you with confusion, as a porcelain teapot would likely crack if placed directly on a flame.

Mistake 1: Direct Heat: Never say 'Ghoori ra rooye shoaleh gozashtam' (I put the teapot on the flame). The correct phrasing is 'Ghoori ra rooye ketri gozashtam' (I put the teapot on the kettle). The teapot needs indirect heat (steam) to brew tea properly.

اشتباه: آب را در قوری بجوشان. (Wrong: Boil the water in the teapot.)
درست: آب را در کتری بجوشان. (Correct: Boil the water in the kettle.)

Another mistake involves the pronunciation of the 'gh' (ق) sound. English speakers often pronounce it like a hard 'G' (as in 'go'), but in Persian, it is a voiced uvular fricative, similar to the French 'r' but further back in the throat. Pronouncing it as 'Goori' might be understood, but it sounds very foreign. Practice making the sound by gargling slightly at the back of your throat.

A subtle cultural mistake is the 'over-filling' of the teapot. In Persian tea culture, you only put a small amount of concentrated tea leaves and water in the ghoori. This is called 'chay-e khosh-rang' (well-colored tea). When serving, you pour a bit of this concentrate into a glass and then dilute it with boiling water from the kettle. If you fill the whole teapot with water like a Western 'pot of tea', the tea will be weak and won't stay hot as long.

Mistake 2: The Plural: While 'ghoori-ha' is correct, in spoken Persian, people often drop the 'h' and say 'ghoori-ya'. However, for beginners, stick to 'ghoori-ha' to be safe and clear.

یادت باشد که قوری را قبل از دم کردن چای، با آب گرم بشویی. (Remember to wash the teapot with warm water before brewing tea.)

Finally, avoid using 'ghoori' for a coffee pot. A coffee pot is called a 'ghahve-joush'. Using the word for tea when you mean coffee marks you as a beginner. In Iran, tea and coffee have very separate 'vessels' and vocabularies.

While قوری is the standard word for a teapot, several related terms describe similar objects or specific types of tea vessels. Understanding these helps you navigate a Persian kitchen or a bazaar more effectively.

کتری (Ketri) vs. قوری (Ghoori): The ketri is the kettle used for boiling water. It is usually made of metal (steel or copper). The ghoori sits on top of the ketri. You cannot have a functioning Iranian tea setup without both.

ست قوری و کتری جدیدم با هم ست هستند. (My new teapot and kettle set match each other.)

Another related word is سماور (Samavar). The samovar is a large metal container traditionally used to heat water, with a flat top specifically designed to hold a ghoori. In many ways, the samovar is the 'throne' upon which the teapot sits. In modern times, the Chay-saz (electric tea maker) has replaced the samovar in many homes, but the ghoori remains a distinct component of the machine.

Materials: - قوری چینی (Ghoori-ye Chini): Porcelain teapot. The most common and preferred type.
- قوری شیشه‌ای (Ghoori-ye Shisheh-yi): Glass teapot. Popular for seeing the tea's color.
- قوری استیل (Ghoori-ye Estil): Stainless steel teapot. Durable but less common for brewing delicate tea.

If you are looking for something to serve coffee in, you would use قهوه‌جوش (Ghahve-joush). For a large pitcher of water or juice, the word is پارچ (Parch). It is important not to use 'ghoori' for these, as the spout and handle of a teapot are specifically designed for the 'pouring of the tea' (rikhtan-e chay), which is a specific motion.

Comparison Table

Ghoori: Used for brewing (steeping) tea.
Ketri: Used for boiling water.
Estekan: The small glass used for drinking the tea.
Qand-dan: The bowl for sugar cubes.

به جای قوری چینی، این بار یک قوری سفالی خریدم. (Instead of a porcelain teapot, this time I bought a clay teapot.)

In some dialects or older Persian, you might hear the word 'ibrik' used for a vessel with a spout, but in modern Iran, 'ibrik' is almost exclusively associated with Turkish coffee or historical water pitchers. For your daily tea needs, ghoori is the only word you'll need.

How Formal Is It?

趣味小知识

Before the 'ghoori' became popular, Iranians primarily drank coffee in vessels called 'ghahve-joush'. The rise of the 'ghoori' mirrors the national switch to tea.

小贴士

The Steam Secret

Always leave the teapot on the kettle for at least 10-15 minutes. This 'steaming' phase is what makes Persian tea authentic.

The 'Gh' Sound

Don't be afraid to make a sound deep in your throat. It's the key to being understood clearly.

Cleaning Tip

Iranians rarely use soap inside a 'ghoori' to avoid affecting the tea's flavor; they usually just rinse it with boiling water.

Serving Order

When pouring from the 'ghoori', always serve the eldest or the guest of honor first.

Buying a Ghoori

Look for one with a built-in strainer in the spout to keep tea leaves out of your cup.

Ezafe Connection

Remember the 'ye' sound: Ghoori-ye bozorg, not Ghoori bozorg.

Visual Aid

Associate 'Ghoori' with 'Glory'. A beautiful teapot is the glory of the table.

Not for Boiling

Never tell someone to 'boil the ghoori'. You 'dam' (steep) the tea in it.

The Russian Link

Knowing it comes from Russian can help you remember it if you know any Slavic languages.

Home Symbol

A steaming 'ghoori' on the counter is the ultimate sign that someone is home and ready for guests.

记住它

记忆技巧

Imagine a **GH**ost drinking tea from a **OO**zy **RI**ver. The Ghost (GH) + Oozy (OO) + River (RI) = Ghoori.

视觉联想

Picture a teapot sitting on a kettle. The steam rises and the teapot looks like it's wearing a crown. A 'Ghoori' is the crown of the kitchen.

Word Web

Chay Ketri Samavar Chini Dam kardan Looleh Dasteh Ashpazkhaneh

挑战

Go into your kitchen, point at your teapot (or a picture of one), and say 'In yek ghoori ast' three times out loud.

词源

The word is believed to have entered Persian from Russian, specifically from 'кури' (kuri) or related to the word for steam/smoke. It traveled via trade routes in the 18th and 19th centuries.

原始含义： A vessel for steaming or smoking.

Indo-European (via Slavic/Russian loanword).

文化背景

None. It is a very safe, everyday word.

Unlike the British 'Brown Betty' or the ceramic pots used for English Breakfast, the Persian 'ghoori' is designed for concentrate brewing, not for holding the final diluted tea.

The children's poem 'Ghoori-ye Band-zani'. The film 'The Salesman' (features domestic kitchen scenes with teapots). Traditional Persian miniature paintings often show tea service.
