"ass, butt"

The standard vulgar word for buttocks/anus. It's the root of 'kuni' (gay, already in the database) and dozens of compound expressions. On its own it's crude but not devastating — more like English 'ass' than anything nuclear. 'Kun' generates much of Persian's anal-themed insult vocabulary.

In compounds: 'kun-e goshād' (wide-assed, meaning shameless), 'kun-esh mikhareh' (his ass itches, meaning he's restless/looking for trouble). Rarely used standalone.
