Salam everyone, hope you all doing good!! I’m curious to know and learn about how much commission does real estate agents charge generally for a property purchase via them or for having a rental from them signed? Would appreciate insight from someone knowledgeable in Iranian real estate market.

It's been forever since I've interacted with someone who lives inside Iran, I live in Qom and man I feel like everyone here just wanna scroll reels. People don't even know Reddit exists (maybe a few in Tehran but nothing in Qom)

Salam everyone,

Hope yall doing good! I was curious to know and learn why is Iranian driving seems so, tough for a westerner who plans to visit Iran 🇮🇷 ? I was planning to visit Iran in few months and the most toughest thing that actually shook me up is the driving part. I don’t see anyone following any rules while watching the videos so, was curious to know how do insurance companies in Iran determine who is at fault usually?

Has anyone born or raised from west been successful at driving in Iran while they were visiting? If yes please feel free to share your insights here!

Here’s one of the few videos I watched on YouTube:

Hello, I hope this post is acceptable.

I am an American who lives in the United States of America. One of my doctors is an Iranian immigrant. He has helped me so very much in my health, and my gratitude to him is immense. I would like to present him with a gift/thank you card. In the USA, gifts are frequently given on Christmas in a secular fashion even though it's technically a Christian holiday. I thought it'd be nice to surprise him by either (1) giving him a gift/thank you card on an appropriate Iranian holiday, or (2) giving him a "classic" Iranian gift (not sure of my terminology - something that's be very common to give in Iran but not in other countries, for example). Or both!

Thank you for any guidance you can provide.

Basically the part after the chorus deviates from the original lyrics.

I'm not a Persian speaker, but I can read & understand the context and few words. I'm lost a bit on what she's singing after the chorus.

I read the lyrics from:

https://lyricstranslate.com/en/sultan-e-qalbam-ruler-my-heart.html

From the lyrics, I can match the stanza blocks as:
1, 2, 4, X
4, 6, 7, X

4/7 is the chorus. What's X? I can't read it in the original lyrics :| . Also, I can't transcribe Persian :/

Really appreciate your human help, in this age of AI. I really love the lyrics of this, and would be happy to know the missing part (:

Hi everyone!

I'm an illustrator working on a passion project called Mermaids of the World, a series of pins celebrating cultural diversity through original mermaid characters inspired by different places, traditions and stories. The image is a collection of the existing pins.

I'm currently finishing my third set which includes a Persian-inspired mermaid.

The illustration is around 95% complete, and I'd love to hear from Iranians who might be interested in providing cultural feedback.

I've researched different aspects of Persian art, history and visual traditions, but I know that cultural identity is incredibly layered and can't be fully understood through online research alone.

I'd particularly appreciate feedback on whether the character's clothing, decorative details and overall visual identity feel thoughtfully connected to Persian culture.

Are there any common stereotypes or inaccuracies I should be mindful of?

I'd also love to hear about cultural elements you personally feel deserve greater appreciation or representation.

I'm happy to share the illustration privately for feedback.

Thank you so much!
