تقدس مآب Explanation: . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 mins (2019-03-10 08:08:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Definition: People who are holier-than-thou think that they are morally better than anyone else. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/holier-t... A synonym for this is "sanctimonious", which is translated as مقدسنما, مذهبینما, زهدفروش and جانمازآبکش. However, I think مقدسمآب and تقدسمآب are better translations. |
