Signification
To move into a specific room.
Contexte culturel
When a guest is invited to 'go to the room' (be otāgh beravid), it is usually the 'Mehmān-khāneh' (guest room), which is the best-decorated room in the house. In old Persian houses, rooms were often multi-functional. One would 'go to the room' to eat, sleep, and socialize, as furniture was minimal and rugs were the primary seating. It is considered polite to let elders or guests 'go to the room' first. This is part of 'Ta'arof'.
Drop the 'be'
In casual Tehran dialect, people often say 'miram otāgh' instead of 'be otāgh miravam'. Use this to sound more native.
Preposition Power
Never use 'dar' (in) with 'raftan'. It's a common mistake for English speakers.
