सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

Students are traditionally expected to be very respectful. Asking a question is often preceded by 'Bebakhshid' (Excuse me) to show humility. When someone asks you a question, especially about your well-being, it is common to answer and then ask the same back to show reciprocity. In the bazaar, asking the price ('so'āl porsidan darbareye gheymat') is the start of a negotiation, not just a simple inquiry.

💡

The 'Az' Rule

Always remember to use 'az' (from) for the person you are asking. It feels weird for English speakers, but it's vital!

⚠️

Don't say 'Goftan'

Never say 'So'āl goftan'. It sounds very unnatural to native ears.
