I think it is a good meaning. and have seen in many issues many translators 
used tose_e for develop. I think it has also all the meanings of development.

Simply, all Farsi users use model_saz. I think it has this reason: the verb we 
use for model is sakhtan. Usually we don't do the model. We build a model!!!

sahneh is a very old and common word  in Farsi. I have some friend in my 
university studying theater. Although they use foreign words heavily in their

How about khalvat? I know it is a bit romantic. but it is the nearest word  to 
the meaning of privacy. privacy is somehow a formal word, and khalvat is not.
just a suggestion.
