मतलब
A polite phrase used when meeting someone for the first time.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
When you say this, the other person might respond with 'Bā'es-e eftekhār-e mane' (It's my honor). It is polite to then slightly bow your head or place your right hand over your heart. In Afghanistan, the phrase is almost identical, but 'Khosh-bakhtam' is very frequently used in Kabul as a slightly more modern/formal alternative. Tajik speakers might say 'Az shinosoyī bo shumo shodam', using 'shodam' (I became) instead of 'halam' (I am).
The Smile Factor
In Iran, a warm smile while saying this phrase is just as important as the words themselves.
Don't skip 'Az'
If you just say 'āshnāyi bā shomā khoshhālam', it sounds like 'Acquaintance with you I am happy', which is broken Persian.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल
3 सवालYes, it is still polite and appropriate, though you might use 'to' instead of 'shomā' if they are a child.
Neither is 'better'. 'Khoshvaqtam' is more like 'Pleased to meet you', while 'Az āshnāyi...' is like 'I'm happy to meet you'.
Usually when arriving/being introduced. For leaving, use 'Az didāretun khoshhāl shodam' (I was happy to see you).
