Meaning
معنی۱
The word doubles as the noun for the cover itself: jeld-e charmi ("leather cover"), jeld-e sakht ("hard cover"). At the Tehran International Book Fair (نمایشگاه کتاب), publishers report sales in jeld. Religious bookshops in Qom always use jeld for Qurans and prayer books, never tâ; the counter carries respect for the bound text.
