Question
Greetings Mojtaba,

Please, what is the Persian for “whitewash” (the white, inexpensive liquid similar to a kind of paint)?

How do I say, “We must whitewash the wall”?

All the best, and many thanks,

Simon

Answer
Hi Simon,

'We must whitewash the wall' can be: 'ما باید دیوار را سفید کاری کنیم'.
دوغاب، دوغاب کاری کردن، سفید کاری کردن all these mean the whitewash/to whitewash.

Hope this helps.
With Best Regards, Mojtaba Parsa

As you may know, Persian culture is one of the most ancient cultures in the world. This enormous volume of antiquity has always been affected by different cultures through the passage of history: National beliefs, language, religion, borders, etc. I can answer you about Persian culture before and after Islam - which is known as a milestone in Iranian history, and also about the various languages spoken by Iranians, and give you translations in today's Iran's official language, Farsi (Persian). Podemos compartir los textos de español y persa y traducirlos para otra cada, también. Mojtaba
