معنی۱
The فامیل dor-e fâmil ("family gathering") is central to Iranian social life: relatives gather for Friday lunches, holidays, and milestone events. Distinguishing فامیل (extended kin) from خانواده (immediate household) is important. Iranians often spend more time with فامیل than non-relative friends, especially in traditional regions.
