برو

The phrase برو بابا (boro bâbâ) is a national reflex. Literally "go, dad," but used to mean "oh please," "get out of here," or "yeah right." Reaction to gossip, exaggeration, or anything implausible. The same boro shows up in cab Persian: a driver will mutter برو دیگه (boro dige), "just go already," at a slow car ahead. Functional, blunt, deeply Tehrani.
