Significado
Suggesting to leave or start moving.
Contexto cultural
The 'Ta'arof' of leaving: You must say 'Berim' or 'Zahmat ro kam konim' multiple times before you are actually allowed to leave a house. Young people often use 'Bezan berim' (Hit it, let's go) to show excitement about a plan. In Dari, you might hear 'Berem' or 'Beryom', which is the same root but with a slightly different vowel sound. In 'Tehrangeles' (LA), 'Berim' is often mixed with English: 'Okay guys, berim?'
The Question Tone
If you want to ask 'Shall we go?', just raise your pitch at the end of 'Berim?'.
Don't use alone
Remember, 'Berim' includes you and someone else. Use 'Beram' if you are leaving by yourself.

Add 'Dige'
Saying 'Berim dige' makes you sound like a native who is slightly impatient or ready to move on.
Ta'arof check
Expect people to say 'No' the first time you say 'Berim'. It's just politeness!
