جیگر

/ jigar /

noun · hot, attractive (slang)

Meaning

معنی

In Persian poetry and folk speech, the liver is the seat of love and pain, not the heart. Ferdowsi's heroes weep blood from their livers. The slang sense kept that body-as-emotion logic but turned it playful: a person so beautiful they reach your liver, your deepest organ. Common in family talk and pop-song lyrics.

How it's used

jigar (slang sense) is most common in Tehran cafes, Caspian beach culture, and diaspora Tehrangeles speech. In Esfahan and Shiraz, the equivalent compliment is خوشگل (khoshgel).
