Significado
An invitation to approach or join.
Contexto cultural
Inviting someone with 'Biyāyid' is often followed by 'Befarmāyid', which is a multi-purpose polite verb meaning 'please proceed' or 'help yourself'. If someone says 'Biyāyid' to you on the street, it might be a 'Ta'arof' (polite gesture) rather than a literal invitation to their home. Observe their persistence to know if it's real.
The 'Let's' Shortcut
Whenever you want to suggest something to a group, just start with 'Biyāyid' and you'll sound like a natural leader.
Singular vs Plural
When in doubt, always use 'Biyāyid'. It's never rude to be too polite in Iran.
