lie-teller / liar
Meaning & Usage
01
"liar / bullshitter"
A straightforward accusation of lying. In English, 'liar' is almost mild. In Dari, calling someone a doroughgo publicly is a serious charge because it directly attacks their word — and in a culture where oral agreements, tribal oaths, and personal honor are binding, saying someone's word is worthless is saying they are worthless.
Examples in the Wild
