सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
If you ask 'Kojāst?', don't be surprised if the person offers to walk you to the destination personally. It is common to start the question with 'Bebakhshid' (Excuse me) or 'Sharmande' (I'm ashamed/sorry to bother) to be polite. Asking 'Where is your wife/husband?' (Hamsaretun kojāst?) can be seen as too personal depending on the level of friendship.
Add 'Bebakhshid'
Always start with 'Bebakhshid' (Excuse me) when asking strangers for locations.
Plural Subjects
If you are looking for more than one thing, use 'Kojā-an?' or 'Kojā hastand?'.
