Signification
Expressing a state of being in good health.
Contexte culturel
It is common to say 'خوبم' even if you are having a bad day to avoid 'taarof' complications. Similar usage, though sometimes 'خوب استم' (using 'astam' instead of 'hastam') is heard in dialects. They use 'хуб' (khub) but the verb conjugation might differ slightly in Tajik Persian.
Omit the subject
You can just say 'خوب هستم' because the verb 'هستم' already tells the listener you are talking about yourself.
Taarof
Remember that in Iran, it is polite to say you are good even if you are tired.
