The 'Go and Come' Philosophy

Never say just 'Hogi' (Go). It sounds like you're kicking someone out! Always say 'Hogi barthene' (I'll go and come) to keep the relationship alive.

اشتباهات رایج

Namaskara is a standalone greeting. Adding 'you' is unnecessary.

Wrong: Namaskara you
صحیح: Namaskara

Nanu means 'I', but you need the possessive 'Nanna' (my) for 'my name'.

Wrong: Nanu hesaru John
صحیح: Nanna hesaru John

The verb form 'Hegiddira' already implies the pronoun 'you'.

Wrong: Hegiddira me?
صحیح: Hegiddira?
