خلفية ثقافية
In Iranian culture, being specific about why you are grateful is a sign of high emotional intelligence and respect. Using 'az inke' shows you were paying attention. In Dari Persian, 'az inke' is also widely used, though sometimes 'az i ke' is heard in spoken dialects. The formality remains the same. Tajik Persian (written in Cyrillic) uses 'аз ин ки' in the same way, often in formal speeches and literature. In Persian corporate culture, 'az inke' is the standard way to start or end an email to show professional courtesy.
The Emotion Rule
If you just said a word about a feeling (happy, sad, worried), use 'az inke' to explain why.
Don't forget the 'Az'
Saying just 'inke' is common in slang but can make you sound uneducated in formal settings.
