معنی۱
Iranians who complete the pilgrimage gain the honorific مشهدی (mash-hadi) before their name in some traditional families, parallel to حاجی for those who have done the Hajj. Pilgrimage tourism dominates the city's economy: hotels, restaurants, and bus terminals all cluster around the haram. Locals speak a Khorasani Persian with distinctive vowels and a slower pace than Tehrani.
