"to mess up, to ruin, to fuck up"

To ruin something — literally to hit it with shit. 'Goh zad be hame chiz' means 'he ruined everything.' Where 'goh khordan' (eating shit) is about personal mistakes, 'goh zadan' (hitting with shit) is about ruining things for others. The shit is projectile here, not consumed.

'Goh zad be kār-emun' — he fucked up our work/plan. 'Goh zadi behesh' — you ruined it. Said in exasperation when someone's actions have destroyed a plan or situation.
