Get the Tarkoved mug.A persian word for a custom that is ONLY applied in the Iranian culture.
It is a way of denying your will to please your counterpart, however the will is only denied because of the custom and not to please the counterpart. But there are situations where tarof persist upon a request to make the counterpart genuinely satisfied.
Tarof often causes misunderstandings between both parties and is a source for awkward situations in a social setting.
The closest one can come to tarof in the western culture is the question about who´s paying the restaurant bill? This is an awkward situation where everybody in the company is reaching for their wallets and it´s usually resolved by social status, the one with the highest income, biggest reason or most power pays. But, still everyone insists on paying.
Common words used in tarof:
- Ghabeli nadare = It´s not a big deal
- Ghadamet ro cheshm (you can walk on my eyes) = I am small in your presence.
- Ghorbanet beram (I will sacrify myself for you) = Thank you very much
- Cheshmet roshan (light in your eyes) = You´re worth it
- Khaesh mikonam (I do kindness) = You are humbling me

Fake tarof: A costumer comes to the cashier to pay for groceries. The cashier says “ it´s okay, you honor me with your presence” When the costumer insists on paying, the charade of tarof continues with a customary word exchange which is culturally learned from a young age. The discussion concludes with a minor argument and the cashier is finally paid the full amount of the groceries and the costumer leaves.
Footnote: the cashier wants the cash and the costumer just wants to pay but this is a cultural and social game.
Genuine tarof: A person will offer guests every comfort available by discomforting him/herself. Sometimes this leads to offering things above ones means. As an example the host will use the last founds to buy groceries to make an overly pleasant stay for the guest. This may have dire consequences for the host, but this is the generous side of tarof and its only purpose is to satisfy the guest.
Footnote: the host is satisfying the guests and feeling good about being a generous and humble person, independent of its consequences.
Awkward tarof: A host insists upon a request for the guest to sleep on the main bed while the host him/herself sleeps on the floor. Or a host piling food on a guest’s plate since the host is believing that the guest is tarofing, but the guest is actually full and satisfied.
Footnote: the guest feels awkward by putting the host in an uncomfortable situation. The guest might finish all the food to show respect to the host.

Get the Tarof mug.This phrase comes for the RTS PC Game, Starcraft. It is a phrase that is used by the Protoss race that is commonly used at the beginning and/or the end of a meeting pertaining to serious Protoss issues by members that have a high status in Protoss society (e.g., members of the Protoss Conclave). It is a way to greet your fellow Protoss or bid them farewell.
In the original Starcraft, meetings would often begin with the phrase En Taro Adun, although the use of this phrase was not limited to meetings. Adun was a legendary figure in Protoss history, who rid the Protoss homeworld of Aiur of the Dark Templar. Later, in the expansion set, Brood War, the phrase En Taro Tassadar would also be employed, after Tassadar sacrificed himself to destroy the Zerg Overmind.
Most likely, the phrase En Taro roughly means "Hail," "Glory to," or "In Honor of," much like the Nazis during WWII would greet each other with "Hail Hitler" or "Sieg Geil" (Hail Victory). The phrase En Taro is always followed by the name of a glorious Protoss hero that accomplished something extraordinary. The use of the phrase itself invokes pride, courage and hope. Sometimes when the phrase is used to end a conversation, it seems to be another way to say, "Godspeed."

Get the Escape from Tarkov mug.1. Protoss phrase meaning "In honor of Adun." Adun was a Templar during the Aeon of Strife, who was ordered by The Conclave to exile the Dark Templar, those who rejected the Khala. Instead, he attempted to teach the Dark Templar how to follow the Khala. Unfortunately, the Dark Templar lacked the training that the other Templar had, and psionic storms raged across Aiur as a result. Furious, The Conclave branded Adun a traitor, and attempted to kill him along with the Dark Templar. Adun sacrificed himself to save the Dark Templar. Now, the Dark and Khala Templar refer to Adun as a noble figure, hence the greeting, "En Taro Adun!" Also used as a battle cry.
"En Taro Adun, Executor! There is no time to waste! We must join our bretheren in battle!" - A Protoss Zealot
