thank you a lot!
Mina Ahmadi Nov 30, 2012:
Dear Faezeh,
In Dr. Reza Bateni's dictionary, POOYA dictionary I mean, for deadly you can see the meaning of گناه کبیره.
So, I think you can use it without any doubt.
Younes Mostafaei Nov 30, 2012:
:) Happy to hear that!
Zeynab Tajik Nov 30, 2012:
Now clear! :)
Younes Mostafaei Nov 30, 2012:
cardinal (IMPORTANT) /ˈkɑː.dɪ.nəl/ US /ˈkɑːr-/
adjective [before noun]
of great importance; main:
a cardinal rule/error/sin

کبیره در فارسی به معنای بزرگ بودن از جهت وقاحت است و اگر میزان وقاحت یک گناه زیاد باشد لفظ کبیره برای آن به کار می رود در زبان انگلیسی نیز واژه «کاردینال» در همین معنا به کار می رود.د
faezeh khosravi (asker) Nov 30, 2012:
thank you.
Younes Mostafaei Nov 30, 2012:
This is not what I say but Wikipedia. گناه کبیره in Persian is realized as Cardinal sin in English, for which I have provided part of the solid & original article.
I hope I've been clear enough!
Zeynab Tajik Nov 30, 2012:
You mean we use the same term, let's say, in Christianity too?
Younes Mostafaei Nov 30, 2012:
Possible! Wikipedia also terms it as the following:
The seven deadly sins, also known as the capital vices or cardinal sins, is a classification of objectionable vices (part of Christian ethics)
Moreover there are lots of entries on the web for «هفت گناه کبیره».
Zeynab Tajik Nov 30, 2012:
I prefer not to! Because کبیره has an Islamic connotation. Moreover, in Islamic context, گناهان کبیره is more translated to "Major/Great Sins".
faezeh khosravi (asker) Nov 30, 2012:
میتوانیم گناه کبیره هم ترجمه کنیم؟

هفت گناه کبیره لعنتی

The seven deadly sins, also known as the capital vices or cardinal sins, is a classification of objectionable vices (part of Christian ethics) that have been used since early Christian times to educate and instruct Christians concerning fallen humanity's tendency to sin. The currently recognized version of the sins are usually given as wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony.
