Meaning
معنی۱
درس is the spine of Iranian middle-class childhood. Mothers ask درست رو خوندی؟ (darset ro khundi?, "did you study your lesson?") at the door before any other question. The phrase درس عبرت, "a lesson learned," gets used after a public scandal or family fight, the way English speakers say "a wake-up call."
